AUSTIN – November 06, 2026 -- BRUCE BOLT is releasing a Pete Crow-Armstrong Signature Series batting glove, with prices from $85 to $105 and early access for BOLT Nation members starting Nov. 15 at noon CT. General sales open Nov. 16 at 6 p.m. CT.

The glove borrows Chicago's colors and grit

The Chicago Cubs center fielder is now a BRUCE BOLT signature athlete. The glove marks the partnership and what the brand calls his historic, record-breaking season.

It has a white base with a two-tone red and blue design inspired by Chicago's colors. A speckled concrete print on the BOLT logo adds what the brand describes as a touch of Chicago grit. Crow-Armstrong's personal mantra, "Be where your feet are," is printed on the bag.

Crow-Armstrong says he has worn BRUCE BOLT all year. He wanted the glove to feel like him and to give something back to the city that made him feel at home.

LOS ANGELES – November 06, 2026 -- Young athletes can pre-order the ALLDAY SLIDE, a recovery slide with swappable covers, for $75 starting November 5. It is the first product from ALLSKNS, a new youth sports footwear brand launched by FCTRY LAb.

The slide swaps looks without swapping shoes

The ALLDAY SLIDE is built for the hours before and after games, from the last whistle to the car ride home. Its patented design uses interchangeable SKNS: a core SKN slides into the top frame, and a footbed SKN slides into the footbed. Each SKN is reversible and symmetrical, so it fits either foot, and the brand says one pair delivers four looks.

Underneath, an EVA foam base and an interchangeable EVA insole provide double-layer cushioning. Built-in vents add airflow. Because athletes can swap or add SKNS rather than buy a new pair, the brand says the system cuts waste.
