The BEST Nike GK Glove ever! The Vapor Grip 3 Goalkeeper Gloves

Whatsup keepers!!
We're back with a review on the ever present ‪@nikefootball‬ Vapor Grip 3s the best goalkeeper glove that Nike has had to offer in literal decades and one of the best sellers on the market for good reason!
The Nike VG3 has been the number one flagship glove for quite some time now, with models ranging all the way back to the early 2000's and while this new model does have some big differences in how the body is made up and feels on the hand the heart and body of the VG3 has continued on through the variations with the latest model improving on all the small problems found in the previous versions.
Features
- Hybrid Flat/Roll Cut
- ACC Latex ( Contact Latex)
- Rolled palm, thumb, pinky and forefinger
- Neoprene Mesh backhand with padded supersoft latex
- Traditional Velcro Wrist Closure
- Supersoft Wrist Strap
- Precurved Catching structure

The VG3s I used to wear between 2009 and 2018 are some of the best gloves I have ever worn. The grip was fantastic, the VG3 cut one of the best around, the gloves fit nice and the strap held them in place well. I've tried a pair of the newer style and the fit was awful, so so tight the webbing between my fingers would ache after prolonged use, and I hate the new style cut. This model in the video looks like Nike may have listened and at least gone a bit of a way back to the old cut, although it's still not quite the same.

[@ARSGoalkeeping]

you're definitely correct, on some of my other VG3 reviews i talk about the pain in between the fingers! this cut is still exceptionally tight but not near as bad as the others

[@theoriemersma2248]

Agree!!!

[@kaasis5828]

Which pair didn’t you like? I maybe want to buy a pair of VG3s, but don’t want to get the wrong pair.

Yes Alberto is back lesgo

[@michael.stephenson]

There’s just something about these gloves I love, I’ve used grippier latex but not found the fit the best so haven’t utilised the grip. With these the fit is perfect for my hands and I even enjoy using these in the wet! You can grab these gloves in the sale most of the time. I haven’t paid more than £48 for a pair of vg3’s, even managed to grab a pair for £30

[@josephchalabi]

Where did you find them for 30 POUNDS ?

[@GrisGrisPhill]

I’ve had them threw out the years and every model of this glove have been great 👍

[@Finishedbreakfast]

The best gloves, too bad they've changed space above wrist strap - now its too loose for me. but comfort/feel/safety combination is still perfect

[@ARSGoalkeeping]

I kinda liked the extra long wrist version they had but it did find itself tearing a lot so I think that’s why they stopped doing it

[@Finishedbreakfast]

@@ARSGoalkeeping but you did 100% right point - without that extra layer glove feels much tighter on hand. but another one great thing on old versions - full black design!

Do these ones have finger save

[@axentyve3607]

How is the ACC palm? I heard some comments that it loses the grip very fast

[@felipecastro3248]

They really are the best gloves in the market. I still have my 2018 world cup version, and it’s still a great glove

You should do a review of J4K goalkeeper gloves curious to see your opinion on them they are a irish brand

Pretty good cheap practice glove and durable on turf. I have the revo roll cut

[@Axel.Krs7]

Every time when I trying buying new gloves,in the 80% of the gloves my wrist doesn’t fit into the glove.To finally my wrist fit I must wear a 2 size bigger glove than my normal size, which creates a huge empty space on the fingers.The same thing happend with VG3.Now I am stuck with some 10€ addidas gloves.Can I do something about that?Also keep up that good job!🔥

[@jackda0895]

i bought this pair of gloves and straight out of the bag i couldn't even pick a ball up with one hand is this because they're not wet because i didn't pre wash or put any water on them or is it something else ?

Does anyone know the difference between the normal version and the reverse stitch version? I’m about to buy my second pair and have no clue what the difference is

[@ARSGoalkeeping]

Normal version is a hybrid between roll and flat cut, reverse stitch means the the hybrid is a negative which makes the stitches go on the inside. Personally i prefer the reverse stitch as it is a negative cut style

Is it work buying glove as I have the sells ghost total contact and there a bit bigger than my usual size so the tearing in the finger tips isn’t bad but the palms are a bit ripped but still good and is it worth upgrading to one glove soon

[@matteorella6001]

Is this the vg3 promo or vg3? And what’s the difference?

[@ARSGoalkeeping]

This is the common VG3 found on all markets. The promo version was made for pros that weren’t allowed to have such a large brand on the gloves so the Nike check is smaller and the latex will be Nike promo latex even better than the latex used on the VG3 in this video

[@oof7268]

So last years vg3s are exactly the same just diffrent colours? I can pick a pair up for 40 euros and I need some new game gloves should I do it

Looks the same, might be slightly different in the backhand mesh material, I remember the yellow and black model felt crazy tight
