Reusch Waorani Deluxe G2 Ortho-Tec Goalkeeper Gloves - model 3470900

Reusch Waorani Deluxe G2 Ortho-Tec Goalkeeper Gloves - model 3470900

Appearance: These gloves are mean and green!! I don't know how Reusch did it with these gloves, but when you see them in person, you'll understand when I tell you that these things are intimidating. They have so many features and so much innovative technology that you can't help but be impressed. The embossed backhand and expanse cut palms look cool, but also provide protection and flexibility.

Performance: It's fitting that we reviewed these gloves after we did the adidas Brazuca World Cup ball because I wondered last month if there was going to be a glove on the market this year that could stop that ball and I think this is it. Reusch does so many things with their gloves that I'm not going to bore you with all the features because you can just read those on the item page. What I am going to focus on is just how comfortable these gloves are and how much feel you actually get with them. The pre-curved fingers might be the simplest, yet greatest thing on this glove. Most gloves come flat as a board, but these gloves are pre-curved to contour to the way your hands naturally sit. So even with all the latex and polyurethane fingersavers, you still have all the flexibility you would have if you were wearing mitten. The Catch Control™ feature on the palms basically mimics your fingerprint for added grip. You can easily palm a soccer ball with these gloves even if you couldn't before. Honestly, we realize that these gloves aren't cheap, but just know that they are without question, worth every penny!
