The a1000 is just another model of gloves made by wilson. They are supposed to be the best one out there but I see all gloves the same and I have been playing for years.
Softball gloves are made the same way Baseball gloves are. Companies like Akadema make both softball and baseball gloves. See video below on how gloves are made. http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=KcGiBodC-Mo

Gloves for all position players.
Baseball batting gloves can be found online on websites, such as Eastbay, Baseball Rampage and Baseball Express. Batting gloves have different colors and designs.
In my opinion, Easton gloves are on their way out. Dropping all their glove endorsements. Not a quality to glove in my opinion.

Baseball gloves do protect your hands with blisters, this is why many baseball players wear the gloves for long games in order to protect their hands.
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia states, "Many early baseball gloves were simple leather gloves with the fingertips cut off, supposedly to allow for the same control of a bare hand, but with extra padding."
You can use the same gloves for gardening or keeping warm in winter. However for medical reasons, a doctor does not use the same gloves twice.
Infield gloves, a baseball equipment essential, are sold in most online sports stores (ie: Sport Chek or Dick's Sporting Goods), but you can also find a great selection at Infield Gloves. Infield Gloves is an online store specializing in baseball gloves, that allows you to purchase Mizuno, Wilson, or Rawlings gloves through Baseball Rampage (another specialized online baseball store).
