Goalkeeper Glove Size Guide
GK gloves use a 1–11 scale from hand length and age — with fit preference (snug vs roomy) on top.
Goalkeeper gloves run on a 1–11 scale tied to hand length and age. To find it, measure hand length (wrist crease to fingertip) in cm and add about 1 — or use the age guide below. Pros fit snug; add half to one size for comfort and durability.
Hand length (cm) + 1 ≈ GK size
Snug = control · roomy = comfort/longevity
Goalkeeper glove sizes by age and hand length:
| Age | GK glove size | Hand length |
|---|---|---|
| 4–6 yrs | Size 4 | ~13 cm |
| 7–8 yrs | Size 5–6 | ~15 cm |
| 9–10 yrs | Size 7 | ~17 cm |
| 11–12 yrs | Size 8 | ~18 cm |
| 13–14 yrs | Size 9 | ~19 cm |
| Adult S/M | Size 9–10 | 20–22 cm |
| Adult L/XL | Size 10–11 | 22–24 cm |
⚠️ A snug fit gives the best ball feel but wears faster; a slightly roomy fit lasts longer and suits younger keepers still growing.
