FAQs
How do I determine the correct size?
Measure the circumference of your palm, excluding the thumb. Consult the Nike size chart for goalkeeper gloves to find your size.
Can these gloves be used on artificial turf?
While these gloves can be used on artificial turf, it is best to use them on grass surfaces to maximize the lifespan of the latex.
How often should I clean the gloves?
Clean the gloves after each use or when they appear dirty to maintain grip and performance.
What is the lifespan of these gloves?
The lifespan depends on the frequency of use and the playing surface. With proper care, they can last for a season or more.
Can I use these gloves for professional matches?
These gloves are designed for youth players and are suitable for training and matches. Please check with your league for any specific requirements or restrictions.
What is the flat palm cut?
The flat palm cut maximizes the latex surface area in contact with the ball, providing a larger catching area. It may require a different catching style compared to other cuts.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel slippery when wet.
Ensure the gloves are properly rinsed with water before use. Consider using a glove-specific grip enhancer.
Wristband doesn't secure properly.
Adjust the hook-and-loop closure to ensure a snug fit. Check for any damage to the wristband.
Grip wears out quickly.
Avoid using the gloves on rough surfaces. Clean them after each use to prolong the grip's lifespan. Consider rotating gloves to extend their overall life.
