This ergonomic design places the thumb at a more natural angle for pitchers, improving pocket control and comfort through every start, bullpen session, and late-game appearance.\n\nWhy does the Dual Hinge web benefit pitchers?\n\nThe Dual Hinge is a closed web design that fully conceals the pitcher's hand and pitch grip from the batter and base runners. Preventing hitters from reading your grip before release is a major strategic advantage — and the Dual Hinge delivers that edge on every pitch.\n\nWhat leather is used in the Capitol+ 12\" Dual Hinge palm?\n\nThe Capitol+ uses premium Japanese-tanned USA Kip leather in the palm — a lighter, more supple leather that breaks in faster than standard cowhide. Pitchers benefit from the responsive feel during every comebacker and bunt play.\n\nIs the Capitol+ 12\" Dual Hinge available in left-hand throw?\n\nYes — the MFGCPPSE15 is available in both right-hand throw and left-hand throw, making it an excellent choice for left-handed pitchers as well as right-handers.\n\nWhy is 12\" the standard size for a pitcher's glove?\n\nA 12\" glove gives pitchers the reach to handle comebackers, line drives up the middle, and bunt situations, while remaining agile enough for quick transfers and pick-off moves. It is the go-to size for most pitchers from high school through adult leagues.\n\nWhat are paracord web laces on the Capitol+?\n\nParacord web laces are ultra-strong synthetic laces in the Capitol+ web pocket. They keep the Dual Hinge web tightly closed and structurally sound through a full season of pitching — far more durable than traditional leather laces under repeated stress.\n\nHow does the Capitol+ compare to the Marucci Acadia for pitchers?\n\nThe Capitol+ is a premium upgrade for pitchers. It features Japanese Kip leather (lighter and more supple than Acadia's full-grain cowhide), the C Type SHIFT fit system, suede leather back, and paracord web laces. The Acadia uses a standard M Type fit and cowhide construction — both are quality options, but the Capitol+ is built for pitchers who want elite ergonomics and premium materials.\n\nHow long does it take to break in the Capitol+ 12\" Dual Hinge?\n\nJapanese Kip leather breaks in faster than traditional cowhide. Most pitchers achieve a game-ready feel within 1–2 weeks of regular throwing and conditioning. Apply a quality glove oil and use steam or mallet break-in to speed up the process before your first start.\n\nDoes the Marucci Capitol+ 12\" Dual Hinge come with a warranty?\n\nYes, the Capitol+ series is backed by a Marucci manufacturer's warranty.
