HO Aquagrip Goalkeepers Gloves

Advantages: Stunning looks, very comfortable.
Disadvantages: Very poor grip

...Since being young I have been borderline obsessed with goalkeeper gloves. In my late teens and early 20's I was buying up to 8 pairs of gloves a season. Outrageous, yes maybe, but I was hooked with the feel and optimism that a new pair of gloves would bring. My mates bought boots by the, er, boot load, I however always opted for gloves.

I fell for these gloves immediately and parted with something in the region of £65 for them. I had made a mistake.

Advantages: the secure finger guards
Disadvantages: the is no secure guard for the thumb

...the new addias finger savers are very useful in a game situation they are very pretected and padded on the finger area i thought this prouduct was very good for playing football,i felt very safe wearing them because my freind used normall keepergloves and broke 2 of his fingers so i was safe.one of the best things about the fingersaves are when you save the ball it dosent bend the fingers back and also the stout grip. the fingersaves are very comthy and warm so on bad weather it doest make your hand go cold as quick as the normal gloves would.anyone who enjoys being in goal should buy a pair because if you get a pair then you know your a keeper and your safe and secure,you can get them in 2 differrent colours green stripes going horizontal across the fingers and a big green adidas logo on it green and you can get the same desin in blue...
