The negative cut design features seams that are placed inside the glove, offering a tighter, more snug fit. This maximizes the surface area of contact between your hand and the ball, leading to improved feel and control.
Measure the circumference of your hand at its widest point (excluding the thumb) and consult the Mitre sizing chart. The gloves should fit snugly without being uncomfortably tight.
The Mitre Impel Goalkeeper Gloves are described as a training essential for all levels of the game and are designed to offer protection and performance. They can certainly be used for matches, particularly at amateur or training levels.
The longevity of the grip depends on usage frequency, playing surface, and proper care. Regular cleaning and avoiding abrasive surfaces will help maintain optimal grip for a longer period.
The EVA cushioned back hand punchzone is designed to provide protection and aid in deflecting strikes. While it offers some flexibility, it is firmer than the palm area to provide a solid surface for punching.
The latex thumb wrap serves two main purposes: it offers extra protection to the thumb area, which is vulnerable to impact, and it extends the grippy latex surface, enhancing ball control when handling.
The gloves may require a break-in period. Wear them for short training sessions, gently flexing your hands. Avoid over-tightening the wrist strap initially.
Ensure the gloves are clean and dry. Sweat and dirt can significantly reduce latex grip. Follow the care instructions for cleaning and drying. Avoid touching excessively oily or dirty surfaces.
Inspect the stitching carefully. Minor loose threads can often be trimmed. If significant stitching is failing, contact the retailer for potential warranty claims, as this may indicate a manufacturing defect.
Check that the hook and loop fastener is clean and free from debris. Ensure the strap is positioned correctly and tightened firmly but not uncomfortably. If the hook and loop is worn out, it may require replacement.
Setup: The Mitre Impel Goalkeeper Gloves are designed for immediate use. Ensure you select the correct size for a snug, comfortable fit. Adjust the elastic strap and hook and loop fastening system to secure the glove around your wrist, utilizing the in-built tab for easier adjustment. The negative cut may feel tight initially; allow a brief break-in period for the gloves to conform to your hand shape.
Compatibility: These gloves are suitable for all levels of play and are designed for use on various pitch types, primarily for training. While durable, prolonged use on abrasive surfaces may affect the grip over time.
Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your gloves:
