Frequently Asked Questions
How are FS-SPORTs goalkeeper glove sizes comparable with sizes by other brands?
Usually, every goalkeeper glove brand has its own punching knives that can also explain individual different sizes of the gloves. FS-SPORT (with short cut) is best to compare with sizes from adidas and PUMA.
Why do I have to order 3 pairs with the exact same specification?
Manufacturing custom goalkeeper gloves in tiny volumes, which is very time and cost intensive, requires a framework condition to operate profitable. Therefore, a minimum order of 3 pairs with the exact same specification is necessary.
What is the difference between the long and the short cut?
Compared with the short cut, the long cut has an approximately 1 cm longer inner hand with contact foam at the lower wrist. This makes for a more comfortable wearing experience. Due to this enlargement the gloves size also expands. Rule of thumb: always order goalkeeper gloves with a long cut a whole size smaller than those with a short cut.
Are FS-SPORTs Premium Contact Foams as good as TOP-foams by the big brands?
FS-SPORT only uses very high quality Supersoft-Contact Foams. Our foams also fit the more sophisticated standards of professional goalkeepers.
Is the High Premium Aqua Grip also playable at dry wether conditions?
The HPAG is a contact foam espacially created to be played at wet wether conditions, which ,played at dry wether, shows all benefits of the HPSG.
Why can't I buy FS-SPORT gloves in a sport shop nearby?
FS-SPORT consciously goes without building up a distribution network to servce the customer as favourable as possible without an intermediary.
How long does is take from placing the order to the shipment of the glove?
That can be very different and depends on the respective amount of orders at a current period which leads to a higher workload of our sewing rooms. The mean time to deliver is about 10 weeks.
Does FS-SPORT sponsor goalkeepers in lower amateur leagues or junior teams?
No, sorry. For a wide spreading advertising effectiveness sponsoring in lower amateur leagues doesn't make sense for us business wise.
