Designed for goalkeepers seeking maximum confidence and protection, the adidas Predator Match Fingersave Goalkeeper Gloves offer reliable grip, superior support, and essential finger protection.

These gloves are engineered for goalkeepers who prioritize protection and consistent performance. The Fixed FingerSave spines provide crucial support, instilling confidence when facing powerful shots or impacts, helping to prevent painful overextension injuries. During catches, the Soft Grip Pro latex ensures excellent friction with the ball, allowing for secure handling even when wet. The half-negative cut wraps snugly around the fingers, maximizing the latex-to-ball contact area for a responsive feel, which is vital for precise throws and distributions. The updated backhand with ribbed mesh and latex elements supports natural hand flexion, making punching and clearing comfortable and effective. The half-wrap wrist strap locks the glove securely, preventing slippage during dynamic movements like diving and sprawling saves. These gloves are ideal for match play and intense training sessions where protection and reliable grip are paramount.
Preparation: Before first use, gently moisten the latex palms with water for optimal grip activation.
Putting On: Slide your hand into the glove, ensuring your fingers are fully extended into the finger stalls.
Secure the Strap: Wrap the half-wrap elastic strap firmly around your wrist to achieve a snug, comfortable fit without restricting blood flow. The strap should eliminate any excess movement of the glove on your hand.
These gloves are designed for all goalkeepers, suitable for various levels of play from amateur to semi-professional, across different field types (natural grass, well-maintained artificial turf). They are universally compatible with standard soccer ball sizes.
Immediate Cleaning: After each use, gently wash the palms with lukewarm water to remove dirt and grass. Avoid harsh detergents.
Drying: Squeeze out excess water gently. Allow the gloves to air dry naturally, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, as this can degrade the latex. Do not tumble dry.
Storage: Store gloves flat or with palms facing each other to prevent latex from sticking. Keep them in a cool, dry place, ideally in a glove bag, to protect them from extreme temperatures and damage.
Avoid Abrasive Surfaces: While durable, excessive dragging or sliding on abrasive surfaces can reduce the lifespan of the latex palm.
