I’ve gotta be honest I’ve never thought of getting a pair of glove outside of Nike & Adidas but many of your videos really show how awesome Kaliaare is and thus I’ve gotten the Pwrlite Veloz. It’s great cushion on its ✋ with that 4mm latex whenever facing shots it’s not a worry at all. Handling wise great stuff always on the ball

[@ConorOKeefe]

Love that!! Really glad that you are enjoying them! I love the gloves, just think the quality is just as good if not better than the big brands, and for half the price too. Run by great people, it's hard not to love the brand

[@danskatesforlife123]

Used these for the first time last Thursday and they are amazing, the fit is so nice! I will definitely be buying a few more pairs! Love the videos! 👊

[@ConorOKeefe]

Cheers Dan! Yeah, I was really impressed with them!

[@tipstertricks]

You know you have a glove buying problem when you own all the pairs shown😂😭

[@ConorOKeefe]

Hahaha definitely

[@tristanboivin8882]

At least I’m not the only one with that impulsive buying problem 😂 when I’m bored I buy gloves and complain that I’m broke right after

[@adeyemitaiwo6030]

Bro nice job .. I’m a goalkeeper too I live in Germany… please I need Goalkeerper gloves from u … thanks

[@eoinguha1829]

Could you send me a pair of the black ones size 7 I have littarely watched every video

[@clipz6588]

Could you try out j4k gloves? I use them and they are world class!

[@CharlotteRumboll15]

Connor can go do a video on how to get up from the ground without using hands\knees?

[@ConorOKeefe]

Yes I may try and do that at some point!

[@KWedelJarlsberg]

Great video Con! Love the diversity of the content you provide 👌

[@ConorOKeefe]

Thanks Fred, nice to try and show something different every now and again! Hope you are good mate

[@dylanmccleary1585]

I’m obsessed with keeper gloves my list 1. Kaliaaer 2. Nike Vapour Grip 3 3. J4K 4. Nike Match 5. Fake Adidas Edge Pros Dream List (Don’t know what order) Adidas Predator Edge Pro Rainbow Colour Uhlsport SuperGrip Kaliaaer Reusch Pure Contact

[@ConorOKeefe]

Love that! Great to see the Kaliaaers in your list!

[@aliaalia5171]

How many days its will take

[@willanderson7466]

Love Kaliaare gloves, 1st started using them a few years ago when I discovered the XGM Pro, black and electric blue. Best gloves ever. Love their designs love the gloves, love the customer support. You actually feel like they really value your support and treat you like you are their number 1 priority at that time. I'll never use another brand. Glad you're onboard with them Conor.

[@ConorOKeefe]

Completely agree Will, really glad that you enjoy their gloves too!

[@ellakers1804]

One question: if the ball is going for top corner, should you go with the upper arm? I see you always use the lower arm, so can you explain why if you have a reason for this?

[@ConorOKeefe]

For me, it depends on the flight & destination of the ball. Here, the ball is coming upwards as I meet it, and it is longer rather than higher for my dive, so I go with my bottom hand. If it were dropping down, in to to higher area of my goal, I'd probably use my top hand

[@HenrySaveAll]

Late to this one. Brilliant to see the warehouse and BIG Kenny on camera again - looking forward to watching your next season 😃

[@ConorOKeefe]

Thanks Henry! Hope you and the family are well, and that you had a nice Christmas break!

[@saldisofiansalim785]

I love the glove, i have watch you wearing that glove with different colour way. It interest me. i just purchased the ultrapro black 8 & XLR8aer pwrlite white 7 during the black friday sales, sadly non of them fit nicely on my hand, i wish they have 7.5 size...it a cool design...i love watching your content, it inspire me a lot to keep playing goalkeeper eventhough you are not playing four the top club. Keep it up.

[@ConorOKeefe]

Thank you mate! Really glad that you are enjoying the content!

[@mattandmatt4440]

Conor I wanted to buy some gloves for wet conditions on synthetic turf. Which would you suggest. Cool video as alwaus btw!

[@ConorOKeefe]

I wear my Kaliaaers on artificial turf, and all the pairs I've had work really well, same for wet conditions, so go for whichever pair you fancy! They also have a product called aquav8er which is really good at helping grip in wet conditions, so have a look at that

[@mattandmatt4440]

@@ConorOKeefe thanks very much. Hopefully Pitea will be able to battle for promotion next season. Especially since they will have the best keeper in the league!

[@jurgen8169]

So I've noticed that you're replying to the comments, can you take putting a go pro in goal as a consideration???and great content as always

[@ConorOKeefe]

Would love to! But it always depends on the league/tv coverage whether it is possible!

[@algarawii]

I will buy one of those gloves that you recommended, but by the way what training kit was those you weared, they seemed pretty amazing.

[@ConorOKeefe]

Yeah the training kit was really nice too!

[@sammfowler6258]

Is your base layer in this video from Kaliaaer too? (would love to hear your thoughts on that as playing on astro can be a bit uncomfortable as you know?

[@ConorOKeefe]

Yes it is! It's one of my favourites too!

[@abhishektripathi6596]

Here I am using tore gloves and look at him hahahha

[@okkcomputer]

worn my joe hart ones 2 games and the palms look like they've been worn for months, not sure if this is expected or not

[@ConorOKeefe]

Make sure you are cleaning/taking good care of the gloves away from the pitch, that can make a big difference too

[@itspanaroxy]

i really want a strapless 3dxi cut to come out at some time love the behind the scenes videos

[@ConorOKeefe]

Sure they will at some point! Thank you

[@keithwilson357]

My son has used kas for the last 5 years . The ultrapros in black are truly exceptional value especially in the black Friday sale . His training kit has been getting plenty compliments as well .been brilliant to see the brand grow and especially among spfl keepers . Big Joe hart sporting a pair in yesterday's cup final. The companies interaction with keepers at all levels on social media deserves mention . And the challenges during lockdown . A company thats clearly grown massivley but loyal to its roots . Wish them all the best for 2022

[@ConorOKeefe]

Definitely. They've done a great job for the GK Union at all levels. Really glad your son is enjoying the gloves too!

[@dimitrismarako]

Had a hard time understanding what the guy was saying... good looking gloves though!

[@jimbuckley2862]

Nice video Con. I started using Kaliaaer after you got those three pairs (Purple, Pink and Blue ones) to try out, and have used them quite consistently the last two and a bit years. How tight was the wrist on these strapless gloves? I've tried a few and find the wrist too loose, the only ones I've tried that I like so far are the One Glove Geo 3.0's, but will definitely give these a try, especially those Ultrapro ones coming out in January. I've actually spoken to Kenny a few times the last couple of years, really genuine guy, happy to share some details on upcoming releases, top guy and top GK glove brand.

[@ConorOKeefe]

Thanks Jim, the wrists were very good to be fair, I've never really been a fan of strapless gloves, but these really surprised me. Kenny is a great guy, and they are a great brand!

How much percent off do you get when we use your discount code?

[@alexisferreiramatos9933]

Hello 💪🏿💪🏿 I known this brand for a few years, but when I started following you I started to watch it more closely. And this year I decided to buy it. And how I regret not having bought before. For someone who has freeze hands in winter, it is a glove that keeps the hands warm at temperatures down to 0 degrees. It fits wonderfully, a second skin. My question is : For you which of the new gloves keeps the hands warm better inside? Thank you

[@ConorOKeefe]

Thanks Alexis, I agree, they worked really well for me in Sweden! I haven't tried the new models in those temperatures yet, but every pair I've had have worked well in the cold, so I'm sure that these will be the same!

[@brandonstephenson5834]

I watched you pull out a pair that Is listed as sold out on their website that I want 😭

[@ConorOKeefe]

Hopefully they are back in soon!

[@csg2165]

Connor, do they make a glove 🧤 that well suited to colder weather ( snowy, temps) like where you play? Also inside of mits with warm liner for warmth? When training my private GKs here in Cincinnati Ohio, USA, I’ve been using S1 , any comparison ? Grip, durability , AG ( black on palms ) which decreases grip a bit . Great behind the scenes vid with demo

[@ConorOKeefe]

Nothing specific I don't think, but I have always found them warm enough for me to use in Sweden, which is a good measure! Grip & durability are some of the best I've seen, couldn't recommend them highly enough

Everyone makes mistakes, it's not something to be afraid of, infact they are the best at helping us to improve. Instead, frame it that you are excited to play, rather than nervous. Make the self talk positive, and you will be surprised how much it helps!
