Lightning-Fast Transfers. Pro-Tested Design.
An infielder lives and dies on two milliseconds. A custom infield glove from Kachi is engineered around that window — quick-release pocket depth, flexible fingers for bare-hand plays, and a web that reinforces the structural integrity of the transfer without adding weight the rest of the glove doesn't need.
Why This Glove, vs. a Wilson A2000 or Rawlings HOH
The A2000 and Heart of the Hide are category benchmarks. They're built for the same market Kachi is — serious infielders who care about pocket depth measured in quarter-inches. The difference is who built the decision tree.
Kachi's infield spec was shaped by former MLB pitcher Carlos Castillo alongside the infielders Carlos has coached out of Kachi Baseball in Miami — a pipeline that includes college recruits and pro prospects. The pocket depth, finger flexibility, and web structure decisions are field-tested on real infielders in real workouts before they get codified into a product. Not focus-grouped with retailer buyers. Tested on 14-year-old shortstops taking ground balls on a Saturday morning.

Designed by pitchers. Tested in Miami.
Kachi was started by two former MLB pitchers — Julio Teherán, two-time All-Star with six consecutive Opening Day starts for the Atlanta Braves (tied with Warren Spahn), and Carlos Castillo, who pitched for the White Sox and Red Sox across an 18-season career that took him through Japan’s NPB and Taiwan’s CPBL — the leagues where Japanese Kip leather is the professional standard.
Every Kachi pattern is field-tested at Kachi Baseball, Carlos’s training academy in Miami, before it goes into production. Built with Japanese Kip — 30% lighter and roughly 2× stronger than steerhide. Free heritage-flag embroidery for every Latin & Caribbean baseball nation. Lifetime craftsmanship guarantee.
