Pro tip: How to activate of goalkeeper gloves
After buying your goalkeeper gloves and before using them for the first time, you should activate tehm by washing them. This removes production residues from the goalkeeper glove and activates the adhesive foam. To do so, place the goalkeeper gloves in clear water, in a sink for example, for two to three minutes. Once the gloves are really wet, wring them out. Work your way from the fingers down the middle of the hand to the bandage. Why should you do this? Like this you prevent the Velcro or other hard parts from damaging the adhesive foam on the palm. Repeat the whole process and let the gloves dry out afterwards. When drying your goalkeeper gloves, avoid direct sunlight and heat. So do not put them on a heater or near a window, because the latex as a natural material could become porous and brake. We recommend to simply hang the gloves on a clothesline hanging on the the strap or just lay them side by side.
And after the game? Simply throw the goalkeeper gloves dirty as they are into the sports bag? Please don't. Please remove most of the dirt directly in the shower or in a sink with your fingers. Do not put the gloves in the washing machine. For a perfect result spray them with the uhlsport Goalkeeper Gloves Cleaner from our Goalkeeper Shop and then rinse them in clear water. Thats how you increase the durability of your uhlsport goalkeeper gloves by a lot!
