SHAVED and ROLLED -- 2026 Easton Thing 2P Loaded USSSA slowpitch softball bat. Looks like Easton is trying the Thing again. Features a 12 inch barrel with a .5oz end load + alloy handle. Personally, not a big fan of this bat due to the handle being very stiff, however, it is hot if you prefer a bat that is set up this way. If opting for the shave, we would suggest the level 1 standard for optimum performance / durability combination.
** DURING THE CAP REMOVAL PROCESS, SOME DISCOLORATION OR CREASES CAN FORM WHEN REMOVING THE CAPS. IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO CHANCE THIS, THE CAP HAS TO BE DRILLED AND REPLACED. WE HAVE FACTORY CAPS AVAILABLE WHICH ARE A DIRECT MATCH. END CAPS ARE $30 ADDITIONAL. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ADD A CAP TO YOUR ORDER, CLICK THE LINK BELOW AND ADD IT TO YOUR CART ALONG WITH THE BAT.
NO REFUNDS, DISCOUNTS OR CREDITS WILL BE GRANTED FOR COSMETIC ISSUES RELATING FROM NOT ADDING THE END CAP
Unleash serious power with the 2026 Easton Thing 12-Inch Loaded USSSA Slowpitch Softball Bat. Built for hitters who want explosive barrel performance paired with the fast swing speed of an ultra-stiff alloy handle, the Thing is engineered to do exactly what its name suggests—deliver something special every time you step into the batter's box. Whether you're launching home runs or driving gaps, this two-piece loaded bat is built to make an impact.
At the heart of the Thing is Easton's advanced 232 Technology, featuring a five-flex barrel design with a plural resin system that creates variable compression across the barrel for a massive sweet spot and explosive performance. The lightweight ultra-stiff alloy handle helps accelerate the barrel through the hitting zone, allowing for quicker swings and efficient energy transfer at contact. Combined with Loaded Optimized Player Weighting, the Thing is designed for hitters who like extra barrel mass and maximum power through the zone.
Approved for USSSA, ISA, and NSA play, the 2026 Easton Thing delivers premium technology, explosive pop, and the confidence to attack every pitch.
