The Nike Match Goalkeeper Gloves are engineered to boost your confidence and performance between the posts. The latex foam palm is your primary tool for making match-winning saves; its advanced grip ensures the ball sticks to your hands, while the cushioning absorbs impact from powerful shots, reducing sting and improving control. This allows you to firmly catch or parry the ball, even in wet conditions (when the latex is properly maintained and slightly damp).
During intense matches, the mesh on the side of the fingers becomes crucial, providing essential ventilation to prevent your hands from overheating and becoming sweaty. This breathability maintains comfort and reduces the chance of slips due to moisture inside the glove.
The adjustable hook and loop closure combined with the wrist strap ensures a snug, personalized fit. This secure fit is vital for preventing the gloves from shifting during dives, throws, or punches, allowing you to focus entirely on the game without distraction. With these features, you can confidently command your penalty box, knowing your equipment supports every crucial decision and action.
Donning the Gloves: Gently slide your hands into the gloves.
Adjusting the Fit: Use the adjustable hook and loop closure around your wrist to tighten or loosen the gloves until they feel snug and comfortable. Ensure it's tight enough to prevent slipping but not so tight that it restricts movement or circulation.
Securing the Strap: Fasten the wrist strap to provide additional support and ensure the gloves remain securely in place throughout play.
These Nike Match Goalkeeper Gloves are designed specifically for goalkeepers in soccer/football. They are suitable for both training and match play across various levels.
Proper care is crucial to extend the life and maintain the performance of your gloves, especially the latex palm.
Refer to product label: Always consult the specific care instructions on the product label for the most accurate guidance.
Gentle Cleaning: After use, gently hand wash the latex palms with lukewarm water. Avoid harsh detergents or scrubbing brushes which can damage the latex. You can use a mild glove wash if available.
Rinse Thoroughly: Ensure all dirt and soap residue are rinsed off.
Air Dry: Do not wring the gloves. Squeeze out excess water gently. Air dry them away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators or tumble dryers), as heat can dry out and crack the latex. Ideally, lay them flat or hang them in a well-ventilated area.
Storage: Once completely dry, store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in a breathable glove bag, to protect the latex from damage and prevent odors.
