The Mercurial Touch Elites are great. Overpriced and the latex isn't the most durable (which is in the description from Nike on all websites I've seen them sold on), but a couple points: 1) those aren't the Promos, Promos don't have the text on the latex 2) I think you've got the wrong size based on the bubbling and loose fingers, mine are the most "like a glove" pair of keeper gloves I've ever had 3) certainly overpriced, but it's Nike's best latex and the grip lasts forever if you don't ruin the latex 4) they should roll the thumb, but in the right size it really isn't an issue, but their best design feature is the latex down the wrist. Incredible on low shots and throwing the ball.
@ARSGoalkeeping2 жыл бұрын
Nah these are the pro 150$ version the promo is a bit harder to land but the difference in latex at the mercurial level isn't big specifically cause both on the mercurial are embossed. I wouldnt say this is Nikes best latex as their best latex can be found on the SGT PROMOS which are a lot softer and not embossed like the latex on the Nike Mercurial touch elite. At the end of the day it’s all preference and a glove that might be horrible for me can be a great fit for other gks. Appreciate your comment clarifying and for your expertise, have you used the new adidas preds or the puma strapless? If you like the mercurials I would recommend them to you personally i think theyre much better

@@ARSGoalkeeping I don't like the slits on the Predator palms, to be honest. And haven't tried Puma. I used to be a VG3 guy, then the Phantoms. I think the Mercurials should be at that same $130 price point with the Preds and Nike's other offerings to be a better value, I don't really see why they're more. I truthfully haven't used SGTs since I was like 15 back in the 00s, I just didn't like the weight. There's something nice about the ultralight Mercurials

My take on it: 1) Should I receive a pair of gloves with the strap torn off like in the PUMA pair featured, I'd simply return them. You pay full price to get something flawless, regardless of how ill-designed the product is 2) I remember watching the video of this Nike Mercurial pair where they were torn so easily. I was like "That's it! Nike is dropped off my list whenever I consider getting myself new gloves". Selling a pair of gloves with that hefty of a price tag and such low durability is a BIG rip off. 3) Are you kidding me, Adidas? $120 is already way too much for a pair. Seriously, charging people double the above-mentioned amount for a pair of gloves is an all time low. No matter how good they are (and I feel they're not), such pricing is UNREASONABLE. Plus, there are companies that manufacture gloves with better removable finger guards at one fifth the price for a pair. I know that because I have one of those. And speaking of wrist protection, every keeper knows that the best item is taping. Here in the United States, you can buy a dozen of tape rolls for $ 30-40, and they can last you for months. Much better way to spend your money 💰 than wasting it on those fancy looking no good Adidas Predator nonsense. Peace everyone and watch out where you spend your money 🙂🙂🙂

Well I think the puma ultra model fits better than the previous puma one. The wrist of the puma one seems to be too narrow and putting them on can be really annoying. But to be honest I'd like to see puma ultra models with a longer wrist entry. By the way, are there any differences between their ultimate grip and superior grip latex?
@ARSGoalkeeping2 жыл бұрын
Honestly i could never really differentiate between the two they seem almost the same. Pumas best latex is probably their Elite + latex followed by the “ultimate”
@johnmule9656 Жыл бұрын
Old vid now i know, but I've been using the pumas for 6 months now and they're still going strong- and the grip (with proper postmatch washing and drying) is still phenomenal. Like someone else mentioned in the comments- if I'd bought a pair that ripped out of the packet I'd ask for another pair. Maybe these were a duff production run. GK gloves are so much a matter of personal preference though.

I've gone through so many gloves and I discovered that super expensive doesn't always mean super amazing, I went from using predator pros mainly to now using j4ks and I buy 4 pairs of j4ks for £80 instead of adidas predator pro for £100 too overpriced for what they are tbh, it's better to spend £80 on 4 pairs of j4ks that way you have 4 gloves that you can have for 1 year rather than 1 pair of adidas predator pros that'll last for 3 months I've used sells and Nike too which are expensive but my point here is buying 4 j4ks was more of an investment for me and my money.
