Here's the thing about goalkeepers: they're impossible to buy for until you remember they go through gloves like the rest of us go through socks. Grip wears out. Latex tears. And every keeper has a pair they're quietly praying lasts one more season.
So skip the mug. Get them gloves. Below are the best Reusch goalkeeper gloves we stock, sorted by budget, plus the one add-on that makes any pair last longer. Reusch has been the world's #1 goalkeeper brand for over 20 years, and several of these colorways are exclusive to SportGearPlus in the USA.
Not sure of their size?
Size is the one way to get a glove gift wrong. Use our Reusch glove size guide (it takes two minutes and a tape measure). Buying for a kid? Our youth goalkeeper glove guide covers sizing by age.
Under $40: first gloves and stocking-stuffer keepers
- Reusch Attrakt Solid Junior ($29.99). The right first proper glove for a young keeper. Tough enough for training on any surface, priced so you won't panic when they leave them at the field.
- Reusch Attrakt AB1 Advance Junior, White/Gold ($36). A step up in grip for the kid who's starting to take keeping seriously. The white and gold looks the business on game day.
- Reusch Attrakt Solid Adult ($39.99). A dependable training glove for adult and rec-league keepers. Every keeper needs a beater pair so the match gloves stay fresh.
$55 to $80: the sweet spot
This is where most keepers live: real match-day grip without the pro price tag.
- Reusch Attrakt AB1 Advance, White/Gold ($59.99). The adult version of the AB1, and one of our best sellers. Match-ready grip in a clean white and gold colorway.
- Reusch Attrakt Advance Finger Support Junior ($59.95). Finger support spines help protect young fingers from bending back on hard shots. If the parent in you worries, this is the one.
- Reusch Attrakt Freegel Advance, SGP Exclusive Colorway ($74.99). Grip Advance latex in a colorway you can only get from us in the USA. Nobody else at their club will have these.
- Reusch Venomous Gold X ($79.99). Reusch's Gold X grip for the keeper who wants top-tier stick on a sensible budget.
Go big: gloves they'd never buy themselves
- Reusch Pure Contact Freegel Duo ($94.99). A pro-level glove built for grip and fit. Limited stock, and once these sizes are gone we can't restock them.
- Reusch Attrakt Duo Finger Support, Exclusive USA Model ($154.99). Grip Duo latex with 3D control dots plus finger support. This is the glove they'll show off at the next session, and it's exclusive to SportGearPlus in the USA.
The add-on keepers never buy for themselves
Goalkeeper gloves lose grip fast when they're stuffed in a bag dirty. The Reusch Glove Care Kit x3 ($29.99) comes with a glove wash, a re:fresher and a grip spray, everything a keeper needs to keep a pair game-ready for longer. Pair it with any glove above and you've given the gift that keeps the gift working. Stock is very limited.
