FAQs
Are these gloves suitable for wet weather?
Yes, the Soft latex is designed to perform well in various conditions, offering reliable grip even in damp environments.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the latex structure. Always hand-wash with lukewarm water.
How do I choose the right size?
Measure the circumference of your hand just below the knuckles. Match this measurement with the manufacturer's size chart for an accurate fit.
Does the wrist strap provide rigid support?
The full wrist bandage and EVA strap provide strong, comfortable support, though they do not include plastic finger or thumb spines.
How long should a pair of these gloves last?
Durability depends on the playing surface and frequency of use. Proper cleaning and avoiding abrasive surfaces will significantly extend their lifespan.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel slippery during play
The gloves may be dry or dirty. Clean the latex thoroughly with water to remove dust, and lightly mist them before kick-off.
Latex is wearing out quickly
Avoid using the gloves on concrete or dry, abrasive artificial grass. Ensure you are using proper technique to avoid dragging the palms on the ground.
Wrist strap is losing its hold
Check the Velcro surface for debris or grass. Use a brush to clean the hook-and-loop fasteners to restore the locking strength.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your uhlsport gloves last through the season, follow these guidelines:
- Pre-match: Slightly dampen the latex palms with water before use to activate the grip properties.
- Care: After every match, wash the gloves with lukewarm water to remove dirt and grass stains, which can degrade the latex.
- Drying: Air dry the gloves away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as excessive heat will crack the latex.
- Storage: Store the gloves in a cool, dark place, ensuring the palms do not touch each other to prevent sticking.
