Stay true with the Loyalist. With a clean, gray stain finish and sharp, black Seamless Decals, this Maple C271L keeps things simple. The C271L -- fashioned after the C271, but with a slightly thicker handle -- features a standard handle and barrel and maximum knob taper. With a balanced swing weight, it's perfect for both contact and power hitters.

The Louisville Slugger MLB Prime lineup is the pinnacle of wood bats. Our team has applied its extensive wood bat knowledge to develop a product that, from knob to cup, is unmatched. Each of these models feature an easy-to-read knob medallion embedded in the knob that indicates the MLB Prime grade of wood, the species and the length, with the bat name and production date engraved in the surrounding area. These bats also feature a Craftsman-Style Cup, created specifically to curb breakage and maintain hardness on contact. To give these bats an unparalleled look and feel, all MLB Prime models are coated with our EXOPRO finish, which creates a beautiful mirror-like appearance and unmatched level of hardness. Seamless Decals on the center, end and back brands blend into the bat almost as intricately as the grain itself. All in all, MLB Prime bats are the finest Louisville Slugger bats created in over a century of craftsmanship. This is the MLB Prime lineup. This is Louisville Slugger.
