SET GK · By pros, for pros
Pro-grade goalie gloves with 4mm Supreme contact latex, a positive-cut palm and a single-wrap strap, from a goalkeeper-owned brand.
4.7 from 163 reviews across 4 colorways“I'm super picky on the cut and fit of my gloves, and these definitely do it for me.”
Glove anatomy
Three parts decide how a pair of GK gloves feels when the ball arrives. Here is what SET GK built into the Zenith I, in its own words, and what keepers say about each.
01 4mm Supreme latex
The palm is 4mm Supreme contact latex, which SET GK lists as its highest grade. Keepers notice the coverage:
“So much latex on the ball: feels like your suffocating the ball when you catch it.” (Eli, verified buyer)
02 Positive-cut palm
SET GK describes an ergonomic positive cut on the palm and backhand for a snug fit, plus Tipper fingertips for a more natural feel on tough shots. Reviewers call the fingers rolled:
“I loved the rolled fingers it gives the glove a great fit.” (Lauren Olmo, verified buyer)
03 Single-wrap strap
A neoprene and elastic wrist entry, closed by a single-wrap elastic strap.
“Firm strap without the bulk.” (Garrett Kaelin, verified buyer)
Keepers who prefer a latex strap should know this one is elastic.

Size guide
Measure from the tip of your middle finger to the base of your palm, then match it below. Measure your hand, not an old glove.
| Hand length (in) | Hand length (cm) | Glove size |
|---|---|---|
| 5.6 to 5.9 in | 14.2 to 15.0 cm | 4 |
| 6.0 to 6.4 in | 15.2 to 16.3 cm | 5 |
| 6.5 to 6.9 in | 16.5 to 17.5 cm | 6 |
| 7.0 to 7.4 in | 17.8 to 18.8 cm | 7 |
| 7.5 to 7.9 in | 19.0 to 20.0 cm | 8 |
| 8.0 to 8.4 in | 20.3 to 21.3 cm | 9 |
| 8.5 to 8.9 in | 21.6 to 22.6 cm | 10 |
| 9.0 to 9.4 in | 22.9 to 23.9 cm | 11 |
| 9.5 to 9.9 in | 24.1 to 25.1 cm | 12 |
Between sizes. SET GK says to round up for a more comfortable fit, and that your fingers should not touch the tips of the glove.
It fits snug. SET GK says its gloves will inevitably run tighter because no material is wasted. Reviewers agree: “Recommend to size up unless that perfect snug fit is what youre looking for but definitely an incredible pair” (Jay, verified buyer). One Neon Yellow reviewer found the opposite: “they ran big so I need to get 11s instead of 12s”.
What it is not. SET GK lists no finger spines or finger protection on the Zenith I. The gel inject backhand is a punching zone. If you want finger protection, choose a model that lists it.
Sizes by colorway.White: 4 to 12. Black: 4 to 12. Neon Yellow: 7 to 12. World Cup 2026: 7 to 12.
On the pitch
Keepers' own words about grip and feel. Your conditions and care will differ.
Grip that stays
“I've used them a handful of times now, and the grip/stick is still present, which I really enjoy.”

Grip in the rain
“Very good grip, very good in rain, and so far pretty durable”

Soft, tacky match latex wears. A verified 4-star reviewer put it plainly:
“Latex has great grip, could be more durable though.”
Eli, 4 out of 5, Zenith I White, June 2026 · Verified
SET GK says the same thing: all gloves wear and rip eventually, and a dry ball on dry latex rips it faster. Prewash, keep the palm damp while you play, and wash them regularly.

“a tight fit that’s amazing for people who hate loose gloves like me”

“These I’ve had multiple training sessions and grip is just as good as the first training.”
“I am a Division III keeper and these gloves are great in all weather conditions.”
“Great grip on the ball, lightweight, and they don’t rip after several times on wearing them in my college games.”
“love the grip, latex thickness, and durability.”
“Easy wrist entry, snug fit, palm coverage and overall, just a really great glove.”
“Strap is a single wrap, perfect length.”
“Comfortable with good grip which is hard to find these days. Worth every penny.”
“SET GK is my brand of choice and trust!”
Durability
“around the finger tips it is already tearing after 2 uses.”
Care
“The latex is pretty soft, I wouldn't use as a practice glove unless you're willing to wash them with every single use, which I do.”
Inside the fingers
“inside the fingers, the latex is just the normal slightly slippery material.”
Fit between the fingers
“The stitching in between the fingers is too deep so it’s digging in between my fingers when my fingers aren’t all the way in yet.”
Wrist entry
“The wrists are tight and difficult to put on though.”
Strap
“Also I like latex straps, this doesn’t have that.”
Shipping
“Gloves are good, shipping was awful”

Care
RESTORE glove wash $12 · SET GK's own latex wash →
Remove the plastic from the palm and prewash with water. SET GK says prewashing removes production chemicals and adds the moisture the latex needs.
Gloves rip from friction, and a dry ball on dry latex has a greater chance of ripping.
The product page says once a week; SET GK's FAQ says twice every six uses. Sink, shower or washing machine.
Squeeze out the water, then hang dry or fold into a towel at room temperature. Never the dryer, never long sun.
A reviewer's tip: “Grip is insane and the color way is great. Definitely pre wash them” (Bladimir Huinil, verified buyer)
No glove is best for every keeper, so here is the honest fit. The Zenith I suits keepers who like a snug glove with a lot of contact latex on the ball and a single-wrap strap. Choose differently if you need finger spines (none are listed), want grip lines inside the fingers (reviewers note there are none) or prefer a latex strap.
Measure from the tip of your middle finger to the base of your palm and match it to SET GK's chart: 7.5 to 7.9 in is a size 8, 8.0 to 8.4 in is a 9, and so on from size 4 to 12. Between sizes, SET GK says round up. SET GK also says its gloves run tighter, and several reviewers recommend going a size up; one Neon Yellow reviewer found it ran big. Sizes 4 to 6 come in White and Black only.
SET GK's product page describes an ergonomic positive cut palm and backhand for a snug fit, with a Tipper fingertip design for a more natural feel on tough shots. Reviewers describe the fingers as rolled and the fit as snug. A couple of reviewers felt the seams between the fingers dig in until the hand is fully in.
SET GK does not make a weather claim, so here are verified reviewers in their own words: “Amazing gloves the grip in the rain is super good” (E.H.) and “The grip is very good I played while it was raining and the grip stood all game long.” (Justin Rodriguez). SET GK's own advice is to keep the latex damp while you play.
It depends on how you play and care for them. SET GK says all gloves will wear and rip eventually, and that a dry ball on dry latex rips more. Reviews go both ways: one college keeper says they don't rip after several college games, while another reviewer saw fingertip tearing after 2 uses. Prewashing, keeping the palm damp and washing regularly is the published way to get the most from them.
No finger spines or finger protection are listed for the Zenith I. The gel inject backhand is described as a punching zone with more support on the fingers. If you want finger protection, choose a model that lists it.
We do not have a sourced price comparison, so we will not invent one. SET GK's FAQ says it set out to make a glove that matches what keepers expect from the average glove brand at an affordable price. Reviewers who paid it said things like “These are the most expensive gloves I Bought and they are worth the buy.” (Charles Raiford). World Cup 2026 is $130.
Remove the palm plastic and prewash with water before first use. Wash regularly: the product page says once a week, SET GK's FAQ says twice every six uses, by hand in the sink or shower or in the washing machine. Squeeze out the water, hang or towel dry at room temperature, never in the dryer or long sun. RESTORE is SET GK's own glove wash, sold separately.
No. SET GK accepts US returns and exchanges within 30 days on unworn, undamaged gloves; refunds have $7.50 return shipping deducted, exchanges may carry a shipping fee, clearance is final sale, and international orders cannot be returned. So try them on indoors before you prewash. If a pair arrives defective, damaged or wrong, contact SET GK straight away at support@setgk.com.
US orders of $90 or more ship free, so a single pair qualifies. SET GK says international orders may take 10 to 20 business days. Lost packages are handled through Route.
SET GK lists the same Zenith I build for all four. White and Black come in sizes 4 to 12; Neon Yellow and World Cup 2026 in sizes 7 to 12. World Cup 2026 is $130, the others $120.
