Goalkeeper Gloves

    I'm looking for goalkeeper gloves with finger protection in them, anyone know where the best place online to look for some would be? Or else if anyone knows a place in Dublin city centre that sells them that would be great also.

    I've tried pro direct soccer but they don't seem to have many options.

    Cheers for any help!

    Pro-direct probably have the most extensive selection of gloves of any online retailer that I know of?

    Here is 5 gloves with finger protection from 5 different brands. I just picked these randomly but every brand will have at least 2-3 different models with finger protection.
    Sells
    Adidas
    Uhlsport
    Nike
    Reusch

    The selection in shops here is terrible and overpriced. What I would recommend though is to go in to a shop and try on the different brands of gloves and note what size you are in them. A size 9 in Nike may not fit you if you are a size 9 in Adidas. Also gloves with finger protection tend to be slightly tighter fitting than normal so you may want to go up half a size?

    Other well stocked online retailers of goalkeeper equipment are

    Also I've heard Sportssmith on Cathedral St. have a fairly good selection of goalkeeping equipment(Haven't been myself) so might be worth checking? Let us know what you go for in the end?

    Cheers for all the information mate, I used to play in goal but have been out of the game for a good while and my old gloves were in bits, the pair of Nike gloves you posted here http://www.prodirectsoccer.com/Products/Nike-Goalkeeper-Gloves-Nike-Goalkeeper-Spyne-Gloves-Goalie-Gloves-Goalkeeping-WhiteBlueBlack-33202.aspx are pretty similar to the ones I used to have so I reckon I'll go for them, but my mates brother told me about the sports shop on Cathedral Street so will check it out soon and let ye know!
