Goalkeepers come in all shapes and sizes as do their hands. Goalkeeper glove manufacturers such as adidas, Puma, Reusch, Sells Goalkeeper Products, Uhlsport, and Nike market gloves for keepers of all ages, ability levels, and sizes. After a goalkeeper determines their glove size it is important to figure out their budget. Other important decisions are whether to use goalkeeper gloves with finger protection such as adidas fingersaves , what type of palm latex, and the cut of the latex. Goalkeeper gloves are
perishables. The better the palm latex the better the grip. The supple latex found on higher end game goalkeeper game gloves is not very durable since it is soft. Always a sacrifice between grip and durability. The cut of the goalkeeper glove could be a flat palm design which the the widest and most traditional; a roll finger and palm that is a little tighter than a flat palm; to the slimmest goalkeeper glove, the negative cut.

  • Based on the length of your hand and width you probably need a Flat Palm glove. Flat palm gloves are the widest fitting glove.

  • Goalkeeper glove sizing is not an exact science since peoples' palm width and finger length may very. Sizing between manufacturers can also very. Measuring my hand from tip of my middle finger to the end of my palm I measure 7.5 inches. I wear a size 9.
