FAQs
Are these gloves machine washable?
No, machine washing will damage the latex palm. Always hand wash using lukewarm water and mild soap.
Can I use these gloves on artificial turf?
While they can be used, be aware that artificial turf is more abrasive than grass and may wear down the latex palms much faster.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
The gloves should feel snug without restricting blood flow, with a small amount of space at the fingertips for natural movement.
How often should I clean my gloves?
Ideally, you should clean your gloves after every use to remove sweat and dirt that can degrade the palm material.
What is the best way to dry them?
Air dry them at room temperature. Never use a hairdryer, radiator, or direct sunlight, as heat dries out and cracks the latex.
Troubleshooting
Grip seems reduced during a match
Clean the palm surface to remove dirt or debris and lightly moisten with water.
Wrist strap keeps loosening
Ensure the velcro contact patch is free of loose threads or debris, and verify the strap is tightened over the secure anchor point.
Palm latex showing premature wear
Avoid contact with the ground when getting up; push off with your fists instead of your palms to protect the grip surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Puma V-Kon gloves, follow these care steps:
- Pre-Match Preparation: Lightly dampen the palms with water before use to activate the grip. Do not soak the gloves entirely.
- Cleaning: After every match, wash the gloves gently using lukewarm water and a mild, glove-safe soap. Avoid harsh detergents.
- Drying: Air dry the gloves naturally away from direct heat sources or sunlight, which can crack the palm latex.
- Storage: Store the gloves in a cool, dry place. Ensure the palms are not pressed against each other while stored, as they can stick and damage the surface. Use a breathable glove bag to prevent moisture buildup.
