Grips & Cuts

Which foam is right for me?

It depends on several factors which grip is perfect for you. To achieve the perfect balance between grip and durability, it is important to know on which surfaces you play and how regularly the glove is used.

You have to decide for yourself whether a soft foam like SUPERGRIP or SUPERSOFT, a robust RESIST or an all-rounder like ABSOLUTGRIP suits you best. To help you, we show our foams in the video below.

Is the AQUA foam only suitable for rainy weather?

Answer: Clearly no. Goalkeeper gloves from the uhlsport AQUA collection are designed specifically for rain and wet weather conditions, but also give you extreme grip in sunshine.

The adhesive foam contains special AQUA additives that support the adhesion of the surface in wet conditions. If you keep the palm of your hand moist, every AQUA adhesive foam is an absolute top rubber even in dry weather.

On our blog we have compiled the advantages of the AQUASOFT and the AQUAGRIP. Click here to learn more >

What is the difference between our glove cuts?

Every keeper has different preferences when it comes to the cut of his goalkeeper gloves. One likes it skin-tight with inseam, the other wide cut with outer seam. That's exactly why you can choose from different cuts - so that you feel comfortable and can get everything out of you.

Learn what distinguishes which cut in the video below.

Which foam is suitable for artificial turf?

For artificial turf, we have developed a special foam with integrated abrasion-resistant graphite particles in our RESIST collection. These make the foam extremely robust and extend its durability.

RESIST gloves are available as SUPERRESIST, SOFTRESIST, and STARTERRESIST - depending on what you like and how much you want to spend. All models are suitable for artificial turf as well as indoor and hard pitches.

Important: Especially during regular training sessions or games on rough and dry artificial turf fields, it is important that you take care of your gloves. If you take good care of your gloves on and off the pitch, other adhesive foams for artificial turf, hard and indoor pitches are also suitable, for example our ABSOLUTGRIP, the SOFT grip, the STARTERSOFT or the AQUASOFT grip.

Which cuts can I choose from?

To support all keepers, we have developed different cuts. So everyone can find what they are looking for.

REFLEX CUT
Our tightest cut fits like a second skin around your fingers. The REFLEX CUT is based on the HN cut and gives you the immediate feeling between ball and palm.

FINGERSURROUND CUT
As a combination of tight-fitting inseam and ergonomic outseam construction, the adhesive foam of the FINGERSURROUND CUT wraps around your fingers. This gives you more contact surface all around.

CLASSIC CUT
The wide cut outer seam of the CLASSIC CUT increases the ball contact area of the adhesive foam. This maximally large grip zone gives you even more catching security.

HALF NEGATIVE (HN) CUT
Extreme ball control and an exceptional feel-good factor are characteristic of the HALF NEGATIVE CUT. The seams are partially sewn on the inside and provide the best wearing comfort.

Custom Pro Cuts
Some goalkeepers need very special cuts, individually adapted to their personal requirements. That's why you can also find sewn fingers, 360° and ROLLFINGER CUT or special foam-cut combinations in our store. Maybe just the right thing for you?
