IMPORTANT!
Here’s the boring ‘small print’ it is important you read about your gloves...
DISCLAIMER: LATEX FOAMS
Our German latex foam palms are extremely soft and provide excellent grip in all conditions.
Latex is a natural product, providing softness and grip. As a result, the palms of our gloves are subject to wear and natural abrasion, even after the first use.
In the case of abrasion, the gloves continue to perform and the lifespan of
the gloves will be affected by many factors such as; playing surface, technique and following care instructions.
Therefore, Sells Goalkeeper Products Limited cannot be responsible for abrasion that results from normal wear or damage caused by application outside of the recommended use.
WARNING: ROLL FINGER & NEGATIVE GLOVES
With both being very popular glove cuts, the stitched seams and fingers do come under immense stress during the course of training and match-play.
Sells Goalkeeper Products Limited will not offer replacements or refunds for burst seams and damaged foam around the stress areas.
Great care should be taken when putting the gloves on and taking them off
- especially roll finger styles.
Please ensure that the correct size is selected, as seams will come under great stress when moving the hand if the glove is too tight.
REMEMBER: GLOVES ARE DELICATE!
Our gloves are worn by some the world’s best goalkeepers, who play on the best surfaces, with the best quality footballs, most of whom use the gloves for a maximum of six to eight matches.
