Just curious?
I personally think the glove is the most important piece of equipment a player has in their bag.
Very important, the glove is an extension of the player. The fit and feel of the glove should be second nature.
Not saying it has to be a crazy expensive glove, but needs to be well broken in and comfortable.

And a high quality glove will last a lot longer than most bats.It very much does not have to be crazy expensive, though there obviously are gloves that are so cheap that they're almost worthless.
More important than the glove is teaching a kid how to use the glove. I guess, in a way, not too much different than a bat. Though I think you can go a lot farther with an $80-$100 glove than you can a bat that's under $100.
