Pure Contact Gold X Adaptiveflex WM Collection "Desert Bloom"
Developed and designed with Unai Simon, Spain's number one goalkeeper. He will play this model during the 2022 World Cup. The glove is characterized by a tight cut. The extra long white Gold X coating offers the largest possible catching surface, also in the wrist area. This glove comes with the new AdaptiveFlex Closure System. In order not to cover the base extension, there is only a half bandage to make room for the extended base area.
Palm/Foam
- Reusch Grip Gold X: This exceptional match latex reaches a new level of grip and stickiness! Based on the exclusive Reusch Grip Gold formula, adhesive particles have been added to the latex mixture. The result is a super soft palm covering with unsurpassed grip properties in all weather conditions.
- Palm Embossing: Embossing in the rubber based on the palm of the hand supports the natural gripping movement and ensures outstanding flexibility.
Cut
- Evolution Negative Cut: This highly functional cut is a closer fitting version of the successful Evolution Cut. The rubber rolls from the fingertips around the sidewalls to the back of the finger to generate the largest possible contact area between latex and ball. The completely seamless fingertip area guarantees a tight fit and best ball control. An inseam construction with latex side walls in the lower area of the fingers ensures an anatomical preforming of the glove, which is therefore very tight, soft and flexible on the hands.
Backhand
- The unique FreeFlex™ Backhand made of neoprene fits like a second skin and makes the Pure Contact a true revolution in terms of mobility and wearing comfort. In combination with the Evolution Negative Cut, which combines the classic narrow inseam cut with a cut rolled around the fingertips, this glove construction ensures unprecedented, incredibly direct contact with the ball
Closure
- AdaptiveFlex System: The new patented AdaptiveFlex closure system offers flexibility as well as the supportive and snug fit around the wrist that simultaneously adjusts to every goalkeeper’s wrist thickness. This consists of a special two-layer system that ensures flexibility and stability
- Asymmetric Cuff: A long cuff on the outside of the wrist protects against abrasions on hard pitch surfaces. The elastic opening also makes it easier to put on the glove.
- Half elastic strap: The semi-elastic bandage with latex offers additional support and protection of the wrist and optimizes fit and comfort.
Other features
- 3D Thumb Crotch™: The rolled construction between the thumb and forefinger prevents any irritating seams in this heavily used zone of the glove and also improves the ergonomic fit and comfort.< /li>
- Thumb Wrap: The covering extends over the inside of the thumb almost to the back of the hand. The catch area is significantly enlarged and the thumb gets a functional 3D fit.
- Air vents ensure ventilation and a comfortable fit.
