KPR Vector Whiteout Goalkeeper Glove

Palm

Genesis Latex - This is where it all starts for KPR, with the sensational All Weather Plus latex. This is a KPR exclusive Latico latex engineered and manufactured in Germany. The KPR USA exclusive latex provides an exceptional balance of grip and cushioning in wet and dry conditions during matches. Testing has suggested that the All Weather + has increased durability over other soft white game foams. KPR designed the Vector palm first to ensure the best catching experience in games. To support the goalkeeper and finger tips during the save we went with a wrap over finger tip design to create more latex to ball contact and provide additional support. For increased grip and friction resistance keep the latex damp with water during use. Clean with a glove soap when dirty.

Finger Protection

No finger spines.

Backhand

The stunning new Whiteout color way with hints of Black was the result of customer requests for an all white glove. We think it has turned out pretty well! We also had our manufacturer streamline the backhand width to reduce bunching, especially for female goalkeepers. Anyway, let's talk details... Designed for light weight comfort and breathability. The backhand featured two different materials. The material in the lower backhand is a Neoprene Plus to insure a snug fit. The Neoprene Plus was selected not only because of the fit but smell. Yes smell. KPR selected a material and distributor that has stricter chemical and environmental standards to reduce our impact on the environment. Less chemicals is good for us and the environment. The upper backhand and fingers are a 4 way stretch and breathable textile with also the same environmental standards. We tried several materials and felt this was the best from a comfort, breathability, and elastic standpoint. The backhand featured the 3D punch zone to aid the knuckles when punching, getting stepped on, and to provide some structure to the backhand.

Cut

Legacy Cut - To create the best catching experience for every sized and shape goalkeeper we have employed a Roll Negative Finger Tip cut. We took 3 different cuts that we loved and know perform well to create this super hybrid cut. A nod to past excellence in glove cut design. Rolled on the pointer, pinky, and double wrapped thumb for better control and grip. The pointer, pinky, and thumb also have negative cut elements approaching the base of the fingers to eliminate any extra material. Two middle fingers are a full negative cut for a snug palm fit preferred by many professional goalkeepers. As mentioned in the backhand, we took customer feedback and implemented it into this new Vector Whiteout. We have reduced some of the excess space in the backhand, making this glove fit even better than the last!

Closure

Many gloves fall short when it comes to the opening or closure. It is either too tight or too loose. The KPR Genesis is the best of both. The Neoprene Plus is extended on the backhand to provide more support and comfort during every catch. On the palm side we use a high quality elastic in order for male and female goalkeeper alike to slide the goalkeeper glove on and off with ease but yet is designed to fit snug. For extra measure we added a pull loop to help pull the glove on to lessen the chance of damage on the opposing pointer finger while pulling the glove on. The wrist strap is a two piece latex strap with a half-split elastic which allows for greater customization and fit. The strap also includes a rubber pull tab. Due to additional feedback, we have slightly shortened the wrist strap to reduce overhang and also added an extra secure velcro closure system.
