The nike contact 4 palm is excellent, but nike are very 'gimmicky' too now.
Someone said above that they heard what the pro's wear is not what is sold to you and me. Why do you think that is? Only pro keeper I know of who does not have his own Nike Special Make Up (SMU) glove is Sorrensen.
Totaly agree with Old Us Keeper about what he said. It gets frustrating to hear people say you need this etc. Believe me, the quality lies elsewhere with gloves, dont just go on a brand name! In my indoor league just before x-mas, I split my gloves across the palm and just remarked to my team mate as I came off ''Damn, need new gloves now!'' He replies, "You need some of them adidas fingersavers!" No I dont, just need new gloves!!
Can I ask why so many people feel 'Spines' are needed?
the grip started ripping very very easily and way too soon...
so now im sticking with euopeaon brands for my gloves, like sells and uhlsport so far so good with my sells.. thinking of buyiong the puma v-kats as a training glove because they seem very good or i might just buy another pair of sells adhesion wraps..... well anyway my thoughts is that they will be the same and they will stuff up very early i personally dont like nike keeping gear but you guys might.
my 2cents
Buy the Pumas.
do you have a pic of those...havent seen em yet
I agree though, if you say you aren't a keeper, please don't give advice on keeper specific topics.
I will be at the NSCAA convention next week & will see all the lines in person & will better evaluate them then.
My beef with adidas is that their pro endorsees do not wear what adidas markets to the retail public, unlike Sells, Selsport, Sondico, etc where most of the time their endorsees wear what we can get at retail. Sure, some of them still have SMUs, but they are few & far between. I would have more respect for adidas gloves if this was addressed. Nike 4mm Contact Foam is outstanding, but I still am not sure if they truly care about keepers, or just market based on gimmick. They need to start making half sizes to show commitment, IMHO.
REUSCH, Uhlsport, Sondico are all still around, bigman.
c spines can b misleading...they often lead to bad technique....i dunno if u guys r just playin pick up i guess it doesnt matter but a serious goalie would look into it...like i wouldnt buy a pair of gloves jus tbecause they had spines..i would want totry them on and such...but thats just me
ppl dont make sense....if you are not a goalie dont put in ur 2 sense
God help us all!:eek: The most ignorant answer I have ever heard…
I love it when non-keepers who don't know squat give advice to keepers. Do you guys go to the dry cleaners to buy groceries as well? Do you give advice to auto mechanics on how to fix someone else's car? In other words, when it comes to goalkeeping, you admit you couldn't find your exit hole with a funnel, but you're giving advice as to what is good gear. Nice. :mad: adidas & Nike count on ignorance to sell their gloves, adidas more than Nike. "It says adidas, so they must be good." Big mistake. Huge.
Nothing personal, just don't give advice if you aren't qualified to give it. End of rant.
I have no clue though personally I played keeper for a while when I was younger, and I sure wish my gloves had spines :o So I'm not that picky :p
i remember about 10 years ago reusge were king
Goalkeeping is still part of football while groceries aren't even in the same sector as dry cleaning...I guess 'keepers are very 'different' afterall.
I've read a bit about gloves but obviously never give much input, but I have read that alot of the Nike and Adidas gloves that the pros are using isn't even what is being sold.
