Good Points

Fingersave function is fantastic, comfortable, strong


Bad Points

Material between thumb and first finger rips easily (as in most of Adidas' GK gloves), palm material chunks and rips off after not long, hard to clean


General Comments

Adidas Fingersave Academy Goal Keeper gloves are hard to review - they all do the same things - become smelly, palm material falls apart, impossible to clean. So I'm just going to go straight to the point. The Fingersaves are excellent to be honest - stops you injuring fingers blasted shots, and helps you tip balls over the bar as the fingers are stiff. However, like I said, they are hard to clean and palm material will rip within a few months. This is just the normal life a gk's gloves- they will never last. The only problem then that I would say is different to all the normal goalkeeping glove problems is that beacause the fingers are so stiff, you don't get a true "feel" for the ball. This might affect some players, it may not. Putting these problemas aside, they're great gloves that are quite good value for money. As a bit of advice, to clean gloves, leave them soaking in a tub of hot water for a few hours. To avoid palm ripping, ""don't"" use fingers to take off gloves, always use teeth.
