Yehor Krapyvin is a young Ukrainian goalkeeper who plays for the second team of Spanish club Espanyol. In the photos, he is training and playing in Brave GK Venom NWB gloves. It is a versatile model designed for different goalkeeper situations: coming off the line, catching the ball, making saves and punching.
Brave GK Venom NWB goalkeeper gloves support both training and match play with a close fit, secure hand support and reliable ball control. The palm features 4 mm Supreme Contact latex, which helps the goalkeeper feel the ball more clearly when receiving it, while the glove stays securely in place during movement.
Venom NWB features a neoprene backhand, a fixed latex strap and the Fix Fit system. The glove sits more securely on the hand and maintains its shape during movement.
This is especially noticeable in situations where the goalkeeper changes body position quickly. For example, when coming off the line, diving to the side or getting back up after a save. If the hand moves inside the glove, it becomes harder to receive the ball confidently with the palm.
The fixed latex strap provides additional support for the wrist. In the new version, it is stitched directly to the glove and works as part of the overall fit. This keeps the hand more secure during intense training sessions and match situations.
The palm of the Brave GK Venom NWB goalkeeper gloves is made with 4 mm Supreme Contact latex. It provides grip on the ball. Simply put, it helps the goalkeeper secure the ball more confidently after a shot, cross or driven pass.
Under the latex is a 4 mm cushioning layer. It softens the impact when the ball is struck hard or arrives from close range. In match play, this helps the goalkeeper deal with the ball more calmly when the action develops quickly.
The Roll Hybrid cut increases the contact area with the ball. The fingers are wrapped more closely in latex, helping the goalkeeper feel the ball better when catching and securing it. For Krapyvin, this construction is useful both in training drills and in match situations where one clean catch can stop an opponent's attack.
Goalkeepers often have to deal with high balls in crowded situations. On crosses and corners, not every ball can be caught comfortably. Sometimes the safer option is to come off the line and punch it clear.
The Brave GK Venom NWB backhand is made from neoprene with latex reinforcements and silicone elements. These zones help the goalkeeper make more confident contact with the ball when punching. The contact becomes more stable and the clearance more controlled.
This is important for a goalkeeper who works on the line and also comes aggressively into the penalty area. These situations can develop suddenly during a match, so the glove needs to help keep the hand stable at the moment of contact.
This model is a good choice for goalkeepers who want one pair for different tasks: catching, securing the ball, making saves, coming for crosses and punching clear.
