📏 Size Guide

Size Guide

Goalkeeper gloves should fit snug — about 1 cm of extra material beyond your fingertips. Too loose and the ball pushes the palm away from your hand; too tight and you lose feel. Find your size below — if you're between two, size up.

Size Hand Length Hand Circumference Recommended For
4 14–15 cm 15–16 cm Junior, ages 5–7
5 15–16 cm 16–17 cm Junior, ages 7–9
6 16–17 cm 17–19 cm Youth, ages 9–11
7 17–18 cm 19–21 cm Youth / Small Adult, ages 11–14
8 18–19 cm 21–22 cm Adult, ages 14+
9 19–20 cm 22–23 cm Adult
10 20–21 cm 23–25 cm Adult Large

How to Measure

Hand Length (most important)

  1. Place your dominant hand flat on a table, fingers together.
  2. Measure from the base of your palm (where it meets your wrist) to the tip of your middle finger.
  3. Add 1 cm — that's your glove length.
  4. Match it to the "Hand Length" column above.

Hand Circumference (cross-check)

  1. Wrap a soft measuring tape around your dominant hand just below the knuckles, excluding the thumb.
  2. Keep your hand open and relaxed.
  3. Use it to confirm the size from the table.

Fit Tips

  • Between two sizes? Size up. Our gloves run snug — sizing up gives you natural finger movement.
  • Buying for a growing keeper? Stick to half a size up, not a full one. Too much extra material reduces ball control.
  • Finger Save gloves feel stiffer at first — spines soften after 2–3 sessions.
  • Wet weather? Dampen the palms before kick-off for maximum tackiness.

Common Questions

How do I know if my gloves fit correctly?

With the glove on and fingers extended, you should feel about 1 cm of empty material beyond your fingertips. The palm should sit flat against your hand without bunching or stretching. The wrist strap should pull tight enough to hold the glove in place during a dive, but not cut off circulation.

My child is between sizes — should I size up?

Yes, by half a size only. Going a full size up causes the palm to shift on impact, which reduces grip and increases injury risk on hard shots.

Are UNDERTHEBAR gloves true to size?

Our gloves run slightly snug compared to high-street brands. If you've previously worn a size 8 from another brand, you'll likely need a size 8 or 9 from us depending on fit preference. Most keepers prefer snug for match feel.

What size does my age group need?

It depends on hand size, not age — but as a rough guide: U7 keepers usually fit size 4, U9 size 5, U11 size 6, U14 size 7, and U16+ generally fit adult sizes 8–10. Always measure rather than guessing by age.

Can I return gloves if the size is wrong?

Yes — unused gloves in original packaging can be returned within 14 days for a full refund or size exchange. See our Returns Policy.

FAQs

How do I choose the right size?
Measure the circumference of your palm in inches (just below knuckles, exclude thumb) and add 1. That's your glove size. Most adults are between 8–11. Still unsure? Open the size guide above or WhatsApp us — we'll size you in under 2 minutes.
Are these good for wet conditions?
Absolutely — they're built for it. The German contact latex actually grips harder when slightly damp, which is why pros prefer it for UK conditions. Just damp the palms lightly before kick-off for max grip. Avoid soaking — a quick rinse + air dry is all the care they need.
How long will they last?
Expect 15–25 matches at competitive level, or 3–4 months of regular training. Pro tip: rotate between a training pair and a match pair to double their life. The 4mm palm holds up significantly longer than 3mm latex from competitors.
What's your return policy?
Returns must be raised within 1 day of delivery. Refunds are issued only for damaged or defective items — a clear unboxing video showing the damage is required to process the claim. Please email us with your order number and the video within 24 hours of receiving your parcel.
How fast is shipping?
UK delivery takes 5–6 working days from dispatch — free on orders over £100. We ship Monday to Friday with tracking sent via email once your order is on its way. International shipping is available at calculated rates at checkout.
Can I customise / get team orders?
Yes — for orders of 5+ gloves (clubs, academies, teams), we offer custom colourways, name printing, and bulk pricing. Message us on WhatsApp with your team details and we'll send a quote within 24 hours.
