The Reebok Premier XLT Pro Goalie Catcher uses innovative new features such as Crosslink foam protection and a Suregrip palm to produce a catcher with professional level performance and protection.
The Premier XLT catcher continues the Premier series design of an injected molded one-piece cuff and thumb. This design is complimented by a deep Single T-web pocket, which when combined with the angled thumb of the injection molded one-piece cuff, helps direct pucks into the pocket more efficiently. The XLT has a 590 break angle, meaning the closure comes from the index finger and thumb, producing a "baseball" style closing system.
The impact dampening and skate/slash protection on the XLT is superb. With the addition of the new Crosslink foam, the backhand and fingers are wrapped in an extremely protective and comfortable material, ensuring that the goaltender's hand is protected from slashes to the hand from sticks and skates. The XLT's Suregrip palm provides the goaltender with excellent grip in the hand, making it easier to quickly close the catcher and reduce the risk of popouts.
The Reebok Premier XLT Pro catcher is further evidence of Reebok's commitment to excellence and innovation, and is an excellent option for any goaltender that demands the highest level of quality and performance.
