Latex Guide
At YASHIN GOALKEEPING, we place the highest value on the quality and performance of our goalkeeper gloves. That’s why we use only the finest foams, produced in Germany. Our gloves are the result of advanced technology and precise craftsmanship, designed to give you the best possible performance on the pitch.
We bring 33 years of experience into the development of our professional goalkeeper gloves - to provide you with the best tools for your game.
Pro Grip
Our 4mm thick Pro Grip latex is a soft, high-performance foam that provides outstanding stickiness and grip to meet the highest demands - in any weather conditions.
Thanks to its excellent grip properties, this latex also offers exceptional durability. With proper care, it remains noticeably sticky and reliably grippy even after months of intensive use.
Every Pro Grip glove is sealed with a protective film that keeps the latex in perfect condition. This ensures maximum tackiness and grip performance right from the very first use - just the way professionals expect it.
Quartz Grip
Our 4mm Quartz Grip latex is a soft foam that provides excellent stickiness and grip to meet the highest demands in all weather conditions. This latex is enhanced with graphite particles, which improve the durability of the foam and extend its lifespan.
Thanks to its unique structure, it can absorb more moisture, making it an ideal choice for wet and rainy conditions.
The perfect balance between grip and abrasion makes it a true all-rounder among professional latex foams.
In addition to its outstanding grip, this latex impresses with its excellent wear-to-grip ratio and remains noticeably sticky and grippy even after months of use.
Kids Grip
Our 4mm Kids Grip latex offers excellent stickiness and grip when slightly moistened, giving ambitious young goalkeepers a reliable tool to perform at their best. This latex stands out with even greater durability than our professional-grade foams.
It’s the ideal balance between grip and durability - perfectly designed for developing goalkeepers who demand quality and performance.
Final Note
Something many goalkeepers tend to overlook is the surface of the ball and other external factors that can affect the performance and grip of their gloves.
Every ball is made differently - from various materials and with different surface coatings. As a result, balls from different manufacturers react differently with the latex of your gloves. Some provide better grip, others less so - and on top of that, pitch and weather conditions also play a major role.
In wet or muddy conditions, we recommend applying a small amount of Vaseline to the palms (about a fingertip’s worth) and rubbing it in evenly. This helps to provide extra grip when the weather makes things difficult. If necessary, this process can be repeated several times.

Remember: Goalkeeper gloves are wear products.
The rate at which they wear out depends on several factors - how often they’re used, how well they’re cared for, the playing surface, and your individual technique.
With the right care, however, you can ensure that your gloves stay in optimal condition for as long as possible.
