How do I take care of my gloves?
You have a few options. First and foremost, YOU MUST PREWASH YOUR GLOVES. As you can tell we feel strongly about prewashing your gloves before you use them. Gloves can rip from many situations; goalkeeper technique, field conditions, type of training, failure to care for gloves properly. It is important to note that all gloves will wear and rip eventually, latex is a sensitive material that provides the tackiness and weight that goalkeepers need but this is the nature of latex! Prewashing your gloves starts you on a path to durability and long lasting gloves! Gloves will rip from friction! When the gloves are dry and the ball is dry the latex has a greater chance of ripping. Prewashing the gloves gets rid of chemicals used to create the glove in production and will add that bit of moisture to your glove that will create less friction and latex that is ready to perform!
Goalkeepers should wash their gloves twice every six uses. Taking them in the shower post training, rinsing the dirt off the latex in the sink after training or throwing them in the washing machine are all useful methods. DO NOT dry your gloves in your dryer! After squeezing the water out of them, either hang them in the shower, laundry room or another room temperature place for them to hang dry. Make sure they are not exposed to the sun for an extended period, this will dry out the latex! If hang drying is not an option, after squeezing the excess water out, fold them into a towel and keep them in a similar climate controlled condition.
