Watch any game, check Instagram, follow the sport. You'll see ThumbPRO® protecting the hands of the pros.
ThumbPRO® is engineered around the biomechanics of the swing. Its patented contoured design wraps naturally around the thumb to help absorb shock from jammed hits and mishit balls, while staying secure through every swing.
The curved upper surface supports a comfortable top-hand position and helps players keep the bat in their fingers for better feel, grip control, and swing confidence.
From youth baseball to the pro level, ThumbPRO® gives hitters the hand protection they need without sacrificing comfort or performance.
ThumbPRO® is the original, patented thumb guard designed to help hitters reduce bat sting, protect the top hand, and feel more confident every time they swing.
Made in the USA from premium medical-grade silicone, ThumbPRO® stays comfortable, flexible, and consistent in real game conditions. Unlike many TPE thumb guards that can stiffen in cold weather or soften in heat, ThumbPRO® is built to maintain its shape, fit, and feel through practices, games, and long seasons.
Its patented contoured design helps keep the guard comfortably locked in place, giving hitters reliable protection without getting in the way of their swing.

★★★★★ThumbPRO’s guards are the best in the game. They fit better, prevent sting extremely well, and most importantly, allow me to swing without even realizing that it is there. There is zero competition from any other company.

Coach Ryan Coop explains why hitters choose ThumbPRO® for protection, bat control, and a real performance edge at the plate.
ThumbPRO® thumb guard was built for every hitter at every level, from youth leagues including Little League, travel ball, high school, college, softball and all the way up to MLB and MiLB. Every hitter needs to protect their top hand. Bat sting causes pain, can cause injury, and can be a source of lack of confidence especially in younger players. ThumbPRO® eliminates that so hitters at every level can swing freely and focus on the pitch. For travel ball and high school players facing harder pitching, protecting your hands protects your season. College players cannot afford to be taken out of the lineup by a jammed pitch. At the professional level, MLB, MiLB and Athletes Unlimited softball players choose ThumbPRO® every day because it works. From Little League to the Major Leagues, ThumbPRO® protects every hitter's top hand. Available in Small, Medium, and Large.
ThumbPRO® is the only baseball thumb guard made from premium medical-grade silicone. Most competitors use TPE — a material that stiffens in cold weather and softens in heat, giving you inconsistent protection game to game. Silicone stays flexible and performs the same whether it's a cold April morning or a hot July afternoon. We chose silicone because we refuse to compromise on performance.
Yes. ThumbPRO® thumb guard works both with and without batting gloves. Simply slide it over your batting glove on your top hand before stepping in the box.
Yes. ThumbPRO® protects softball hitters just as effectively as baseball hitters. The physics are the same. Vibration from mishits and jammed pitches travels through the bat and into the top hand regardless of the sport. ThumbPRO®'s silicone design absorbs it regardless of whether you play baseball or softball. Trusted by softball players at every level, including Athletes Unlimited professional softball.
ThumbPRO® thumb guard is worn on the top hand . That's the right hand for right-handed hitters and the left hand for left-handed hitters. ThumbPRO® is fully ambidextrous one design can be worn on either hand. Great for switch hitters too!
Yes. ThumbPRO® uses premium medical-grade silicone because it is the superior material for hand protection, period. Every other baseball thumb guard on the market uses TPE, a material that stiffens in cold weather and softens in heat, transmitting more vibration to your hand in both conditions. Silicone is different. It maintains its flexibility, its shape, and its ability to absorb impact whether it is 40 degrees in April or 95 degrees in July. Your protection is the same every single game, every single at-bat, all season long. That is why ThumbPRO® chose silicone. ThumbPRO® stands for protection and we will not compromise on the material that delivers protection in all weather, from hot to cold.
