FAQs

Can I use these gloves on artificial turf?

While you can use them on turf, be aware that the Gold X latex is soft and will wear down significantly faster on abrasive surfaces compared to natural grass.

How often should I wash my gloves?

You should wash your gloves after every single training session or match to prevent dirt and bacteria from breaking down the latex.

Should the gloves fit tight or loose?

The Evolution Negative Cut is designed to be a snug, 'second-skin' fit for better ball control and sensitivity.

Is the palm material replaceable?

No, the latex palm is an integrated part of the glove construction and cannot be replaced once it wears out.

Does the glove offer finger protection?

This model focuses on the traditional feel and performance of the '86 legacy design and does not feature rigid finger-save supports.

Troubleshooting

Glove grip feels slick or unresponsive

Clean the palm thoroughly with glove wash to remove dirt and surface oils, then lightly dampen the palm before your next session.

Latex showing premature signs of wear

Ensure you are using the correct technique for getting up from the ground, avoiding direct contact between the palms and abrasive surfaces.

Strap feels loose during play

Ensure the wrist strap is fastened evenly and check that no debris has built up on the hook-and-loop closure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Reusch Legacy '86 gloves, follow these maintenance protocols:

  1. Pre-Wash: Gently wash the gloves before the first use to remove any factory residue and activate the latex properties.
  2. Moisture Control: Always keep the palms slightly damp during play to maximize grip performance.
  3. Cleaning: Hand wash after every use using lukewarm water and a specialized goalkeeper glove cleaner. Avoid using harsh soaps or detergents.
  4. Drying: Air dry the gloves away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as heat will cause the latex to crack and harden.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and avoid pressing the palm surfaces together for extended periods to prevent the latex from sticking and tearing.
