The OBO Cloud 9 Field Hockey Goalkeeper Gloves Large provide dedicated hand protection for serious field hockey goalkeepers. OBO’s Cloud hand protectors use closed-cell foam to combine protection with relatively low weight, helping the goalkeeper react quickly while maintaining control during saves and clearances.

This complete black and yellow set includes both left and right hand protectors. The two sides perform different goalkeeper roles, with the left-hand blocker designed for controlled deflections and the right-hand protector shaped to combine hand protection with stick control and wrist movement.

Key Features of OBO Cloud 9 Field Hockey Goalkeeper Gloves Large

• Closed-cell foam: OBO uses lightweight closed-cell foam to provide protection without unnecessary weight.
• Left-hand blocker: Shaped to help control rebounds and direct the ball downwards towards the goalkeeper’s feet.
• Right-hand protection: Designed to protect the stick hand while allowing essential wrist movement.
• Ground coverage: The right-hand profile allows the goalkeeper’s stick to sit flat against the pitch to help cover low shots.
• Complete pair: Includes both the left-hand blocker and right-hand stick protector shown.
• Cloud performance: Designed around similar performance principles to OBO ROBO hand protectors while using softer foam.
