Keeper's Boots

The goalkeeper is the player directly responsible for preventing the opposition from scoring by defending the goal. The goalkeeper is the only player in the side who may use hands and arms (within the penalty area) to play the ball.

Boots for Goalies

We reccommend the Predator series for goalies, it has always been a popular choice for goalkeepers, perhaps mainly due the accuracy-enhancing swerve zones, which have often helped in keeping errors in kicking technique to a minimum. In this respect, the Predator element, consisting of a mix of rubber and silicon, has been slightly altered for increased consistency no matter what the weather conditions.

Another option for your goalie boots is the Umbro Geometra, worn by England and Manchester City shot stopper Joe Hart and future England international Jack Butland; who has represented the national side at all levels up to England Under 21. Both players are currently seen in the Lime Green/Black colourway of the boots.

Predator boots are worn by the likes of Iker Casillas, Petr Cech and Edwin Van Der Sar so if you are in goal wearing them, you'll know you are in good company. The PowerSpine positioned in the inner sole of the boot, minimises the energy lost when players strike the ball through a reduction in the kicking flex in the forefoot area. A cheaper alternative are the adidas Absolados, which are similar look and feel, with less of the technology.
