Marco Soto, a passionate baseball lover from Mexico, founded Soto Gloves in Long Beach, California. His love for the game was passed down from his grandfather who made him his first custom glove. This sparked the idea for Soto to create a business where players could get gloves that were truly unique to them.
When Soto arrived at Long Beach Poly High School, his teammates were intrigued by his personalized glove with his name on it. This led to the creation of Soto Gloves which offers custom-made gloves designed with a special software program where customers can choose the shape, style, size, and color of their glove.
At Soto Gloves, creating a custom glove takes about eight to ten weeks ensuring that each glove is made with attention to detail and quality craftsmanship. The gloves are not mass-produced but rather made-to-order to meet each player’s specific needs and preferences.
Soto and his team are dedicated to providing top-notch customer service and ensuring that each glove is broken in before it is shipped to the customer. With 1,800 custom orders to fulfill, Soto Gloves is on a mission to deliver high-quality, personalized gloves to baseball and softball players who share the same passion for the game.
As a Mexican immigrant who has built a successful business from the ground up, Soto takes pride in bringing his love for baseball to the U.S. through his custom glove-making company. Soto Gloves is located in Signal Hill and is a testament to Soto’s dedication to the sport and his commitment to creating quality products for players of all ages and skill levels.
