Each of these items is very important when it comes to choosing goalie soccer equipment. You want to know that the size and fit are absolutely correct so your player has less risk of serious injury during game time. The colors and styles are up to you but having your goalie fitted for the equipment so that it fits should be their number one priority. You even want to make sure that the chin strap on the helmet is not to tight but snug enough that it will hold it in place so they have no worries about it coming lose. So enjoy the game safely.
