I have a question for all the goalkeepers on the board, those of you who play indoor, what are the best gloves you've used for indoor play? Because of all the throwing involved with indoor, I seem to go through a pair of gloves every year. Is that normal? Are there gloves that may be more durable, or better suited for the indoor game? I'm really only a goalie indoor (play outside midfield/striker outdoors), so I'm not too sure about this glove type action. Any help is always appreciated ... Pitz
You can basically expect to burn thru a pair of gloves every season or so on fieldturf. I even put a little medical tape over the palms of my gloves to slow the deterioration process. As for brands, I don't really care, I will buy the cheapest pair that feel 'right' knowing that they will be tossed at the end of the season.
I prefer to wear fingersave gloves during indoor but any glove will do. You can also check out www.goalkeeperzone.com for more information. There is a lot of helpful information at this site.
