adidas Predator Match Fingersave Goalkeeper Gloves - Orange

Fingersave technology refers to stiff yet flexible spines inserted into the fingers of the glove. These spines are designed to provide support and protection, helping to prevent your fingers from hyperextending backward when stopping powerful shots.

No, these gloves should not be machine washed. Machine washing can damage the latex palms and the integrity of the glove. Always follow the 'Hand Wash Only' instructions for proper care.

To find your size, measure the circumference of your dominant hand just below the knuckles, excluding your thumb. Then, measure the length from the base of your palm to the tip of your middle finger. Compare these measurements to the adidas size chart (Info needed: specific size chart reference). Generally, goalkeepers prefer a snug fit, but not so tight that it restricts movement or comfort.

Yes, the Soft Grip Pro rubber palms are specifically designed to provide a secure hold on the ball in 'all weather conditions,' including wet weather. Lightly moistening the palms can enhance performance in the rain.

The lifespan of goalkeeper gloves varies greatly depending on frequency of use, intensity of play, and adherence to care instructions. With proper care, these gloves are designed for durability and regular use, but latex is a natural material that will show wear over time.

The body of the gloves is made from 100% polyester, while the palms are constructed from 100% rubber, specifically Soft Pro Latex and Soft Grip Pro rubber for optimal performance and durability.

Goalkeeper gloves, especially new ones or those with finger protection, often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them during a few light training sessions to allow the materials to adapt to your hand shape. Regularly moistening the palms before use can also help soften the latex.

Ensure the Soft Grip Pro rubber palms are clean. Dirt and sweat can reduce grip. Lightly moisten the palms with water before and during play, especially in dry conditions. If the palms are excessively worn, the grip will naturally diminish over time; consistent cleaning and proper storage extend latex life.

Odor is typically caused by bacteria from sweat and moisture. Always air dry your gloves thoroughly immediately after use. Hand wash them regularly as per care instructions. For persistent odor, a dedicated glove wash or a mild anti-bacterial soap (rinsed thoroughly) can help.
