How to read this: almost everything about this glove comes from the maker, Soldier Sports. We found no independent reviews or tests, and we haven't handled one. Maker claims are labeled as claims below.
Soldier Sports, which also sells bats, mouth guards and apparel, now sells the Trosky Suave Elite Infielders Glove, a glove designed by infield coach Nate Trosky. It's priced at $333.33 and aimed at serious infielders.

What Soldier Sports says
All of this is from the Soldier Sports product page and is the maker's claim, not something we've tested:
- Trosky is described as someone "many refer to as 'the best infield coach in the game.'"
- He "has spent years studying infielders and how their hand works in their glove," and the limits that "unnecessary and inhibiting material and weight" put on the infielder.
- With "master-level glove designers," he created "the lightest and most advanced tool for elite infielders," with features meant to give "perfect glove positioning, transfers, and free suave non-weighted down movement of the fielding hand."
"Lightest" and "most advanced" are marketing claims. The page doesn't give a weight, so there is nothing to compare against other gloves.
What's confirmed from the listing
- Price: $333.33.
- Sizes listed: 11.5 and 11.33 (the same price for both).
- Designer: Nate Trosky, per Soldier Sports.
What isn't listed
The page doesn't state the leather, web, pattern, break-in, hand options, age or fit, or the glove's weight. We left those blank on the GloveCode entries rather than guess. The page also doesn't mention Trosky's camps. If you're a parent buying for a young player, ask Soldier Sports about leather, fit and return terms before you spend $333, and check the store's refund policy.
Independent reviews
We searched for outside reviews or hands-on tests on Oct 23, 2026 and found none. A glove this new may not have any yet. Until there are some, treat the performance claims as unproven. If you've used one, we'd like to hear how it went.
Who is Nate Trosky?
On his own site, Trosky Baseball, Trosky describes himself as having over 30 years of coaching experience, and says he coaches approximately 1,500 infielders a year and has worked with "50+ first round draft picks and over 300 Major Leaguers." Those are his own claims, and we haven't independently verified them.
Trosky camps
Trosky Baseball runs infield camps around the country. Listings change, so check the official camp page before you plan a trip. As of Oct 23, 2026, these were listed on the official site, each at $185:
- Ohio, Saturday, Oct 24: ages 14 to 18, 12:30 to 3:30 pm, Trosky Midwest Baseball Academy, Dublin, OH.
- Indiana, Saturday, Nov 7, ages 9 to 12: 8:30 to 11:30 am at Medici Baseball & Training Center, Brownsburg, IN.
- Indiana, Saturday, Nov 7, ages 13 to 18: 1:00 to 4:00 pm at the same location.
The camp pages describe the camp as covering fielding and throwing technique, glove work, range and the mental game. That's the camp's own description. We haven't attended one, and we found no independent reviews of the camps either. Check each page for registration status and for other dates.
Bottom line
It's an interesting concept from a well-known infield coach, but today we only have the maker's word on how it performs. If you're curious, wait for hands-on reviews, or ask a coach who has tried one. For other options, compare gloves by position, size and web on GloveCode.
