BRUCE BOLT has teamed up with San Diego Padres star Fernando Tatis Jr. to launch a co-designed batting glove and give baseball fans exclusive early access through its BOLT Nation membership program.
Fernando Tatis Jr. took the field in Game One of the MLB Wild Card Series wearing BRUCE BOLT gear, showcasing the start of a dynamic new collaboration. This partnership is more than a typical player endorsement—Tatis Jr. worked intimately with BRUCE BOLT founder Bear Mayer on the color and detail of his Signature Series batting glove, ensuring it reflects his passion for performance and connection to the fans.
Bear Mayer, Founder and CEO of BRUCE BOLT, said:
“Fernando is one of the most electrifying players in the game today and a true believer in BRUCE BOLT‘s craftsmanship. He didn’t just lend his name; he co-designed this glove. We’re thrilled to partner with him and can’t wait to continue watching him thrive.”
For the Fans (BOLT Nation Brings Early Access and Community)
The new glove will be available for early purchase in November, but only BOLT Nation members will get first dibs. BOLT Nation, BRUCE BOLT’s exclusive membership platform, is designed to bring fans closer to the game and its biggest stars. The platform offers Free and Premium tiers ($50/year for Premium), with members unlocking major perks: $100 in store credit their first year, free shipping on orders over $30, a hidden deals locker, 15% off select apparel, access to surprise drops, and members-only merchandise. These benefits are meant to reward the most engaged fans with unique opportunities and savings throughout the baseball season.
Player-Influencer Collaborations and Future Drops
As a preview of what’s ahead, BOLT Nation just gave early access to a new “King of Juco” drop, celebrating viral baseball creator Eric Sim—a sign that big partnerships with other MLB players and influencers will follow. For Tatis Jr., the glove represents the best of both worlds: “For me, durability is everything; I need gear that can keep up with how I play,” Tatis Jr. explained. “BRUCE BOLT offers the best combination, and it’s why I was excited to create my own Signature Series glove. This glove is built for performance, but also for the fans, and I’m excited that BOLT Nation members will be the first to get their hands on it.”
Tatis Jr. expressed the same enthusiasm for the Spanish-speaking fan base, he said:
“Para mí, la durabilidad lo es todo; necesito un equipo que pueda mantenerse al día con la forma en que juego. BRUCE BOLT ofrece la mejor combinación, y es por eso que me entusiasmó crear mi propio guante Signature Series. Este guante está hecho para el rendimiento, pero también para los fanáticos, y estoy emocionado de que los miembros de BOLT Nation sean los primeros en ponerle las manos encima”.
Craftsmanship, Performance, and Access
BRUCE BOLT’s reputation for crafting premium, comfortable, and durable baseball gloves made it a natural fit for a high-impact player like Tatis Jr. Members of BOLT Nation can expect continued innovation, athlete collaborations, and exclusive product access throughout the year—keeping the brand at the intersection of creator-driven culture and serious athletic performance.
