Pete Crow-Armstrong Unveils Signature Batting Gloves Inspired by Chicago
In a move that combines athletic excellence with personal flair, MLB player Pete Crow-Armstrong has teamed up with BRUCE BOLT, a brand renowned for elevating glove technology in sports. This collaboration marks the launch of his exclusive signature series batting gloves, destined to catch the eyes of baseball enthusiasts and fans alike.
Crow-Armstrong, center fielder for the Chicago Cubs, has captured hearts with his outstanding performance during the baseball season. Not only does he deliver formidable skills on the field, but he also brings an infectious energy that resonates beyond the game. Bear Mayer, the founder and CEO of BRUCE BOLT, expresses his excitement regarding this partnership, stating, "PCA can change a game with his bat, his speed, or his exceptional defense. He brings an energy you can feel from the upper deck."
These specially designed gloves are more than just sports gear; they reflect Crow-Armstrong's bond with the city of Chicago and his personal ethos. The gloves feature a striking two-tone red and blue color scheme, representing the iconic colors of the Chicago Cubs, coupled with a white base that signifies the freshness of new beginnings and achievements. A unique speckled concrete print on the BOLT logo reflects the gritty, resilient spirit of Chicago, while Crow-Armstrong's motto, "Be where your feet are," is printed on the glove bag. This personal mantra corresponds to his commitment to being present and grounded, both in his career and personal life.
"Chicago has had my back from the beginning, and getting to share a season like this with these fans means a lot,” says Crow-Armstrong in a heartfelt tribute to his hometown. “I’ve worn BRUCE BOLT all year, so getting to put my own stamp on a glove with them is pretty special. I wanted it to feel like me and give something back to the city that's made me feel at home.”
Crafted from ultra-soft AAA Cabretta leather, the new gloves by BRUCE BOLT provide top-tier performance characteristics. They showcase an articulated wrist for fluid movement, conical fingertips that mirror the natural shape of the hand, and reinforced stitching in high-wear areas to ensure durability and comfort. Athletes can choose from two styles: the Short Cuff, which includes a supportive strap, and BRUCE BOLT's innovative Long Cuff, designed for enhanced wrist support. Prices for the gloves are set at $95 for the Short Cuff (Adult), $85 for the Short Cuff (Youth), $105 for the Long Cuff (Adult), and $95 for the Long Cuff (Youth).
