Franklin Sports Football Receiver Gloves

The pre-curved design mimics the natural resting position of your hand. This reduces the amount of excess material that bunches up in your palm when you make a fist, creating a smoother, more secure feel while you're gripping the ball.

While the high-tack palm is designed for superior grip in standard game situations, extreme weather like heavy rain or mud can temporarily reduce the effectiveness of any tack material. You may need to wipe the palms with a damp cloth during the game to restore the grip if they get dirty.

No, they are designed to do the opposite. The flex zones are strategically placed to allow your hand to move naturally without the glove material fighting against your fingers, ensuring you maintain full dexterity for catching and ball handling.

While they are engineered for receivers to maximize ball control and catching ability, any player who needs a reliable grip—such as running backs or defensive backs—can benefit from the high-tack palm and flexible fit.

To maintain the tackiness, hand wash the gloves with mild soap and cool water, then let them air dry completely away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can break down the specialized grip material.
