Better Than My Old Predators—Incredible Padding and Grip
The padding on these gloves is next-level. The finger saves are thick and protective, yet still flexible enough for confident punches. I use these as my match gloves because the grip is outstanding. I used to wear Adidas Predators, but these are way better. Perfect for goalkeepers at any level.

The Gladiator Recruit 3 Glove is the starting point for serious goalkeepers in the making. Built with 3.5mm of BaseGrip latex, it offers reliable, beginner-friendly traction for catching, punching, and holding the ball under pressure.

The flat palm cut delivers a classic, comfortable fit, and mesh finger gussets keep airflow high. With a full wrist wrap for locked-in security, this glove gives young players the tools to play fearless from the start.

    Price of these gloves was great. The fit and feel of gloves were good but after a few games the palms of the gloves started to wear. Wish they would have lasted longer.

    Gladiator Recruit 3 Glove

    My daughter is on her 3rd pair of Storellis and she's really enjoying them. We replace them every other season with another pair of the same. They offer good protection and give her confidence when making saves and distributing the ball. Would def recommend for any youth player who is getting serious about the position. This glove runs pretty true-to-size.

    Gladiator Recruit 3 Glove

    I can't get over the amount of padding these gloves have. The finger saves are thick and effective, but I can still bend my fingers to easily punch the ball out of the crowd. These are my match gloves_ (because they are so grippy) but I used to have a pair of Adidas Predators fingersaves, but these are soooooo much better.Perfect gloves for all levels of players!
