But these sizes aren't universal across all positions, nor is every type of webbing the same. An outfielder's softball glove will usually be slightly longer than an infielder's.  

Similarly, middle infielders' gloves might need more of an open style of webbing than outfielders or first basemen who do more catching than quick-release field-and-throw plays. Softball gloves' webbing is also much more open, regardless of position than that of baseball counterparts. 

Softball catchers' mitts also differ from the other positions. The more circular or oval shaping of the catcher's mitt is immediately recognizable, with considerably smaller webbing and a deep pocket that covers almost the whole interior of the glove. 

The catcher's mitt also brings the fingers in tight together, more closely than positional gloves. 

Catchers' mitts for softball are typically 32 to 35 inches, depending on size and competition level. The baseball catcher's mitt ranges from 31 to 35 inches.
