For 2022, Bauer has released the new Supreme M5 Pro goalie collection to help you step up your game—no matter the level you play at. The M5 Pro catcher features a Catchgrip+ liner, Rebound Control Foam, a CURV composite reinforced cuff, and a 75-degree break angle to offer that high-level performance you need.
External Material
Carrying over from the Ultrasonic is the Catchlite palm, which is an upgraded, jenpro-like material that is a bit thicker for greater durability while still allowing for easy closure and break-in. Catchgrip+ has also been implemented along the inside liner for a better feel and more control when catching with a fingers-to-thumb closure. Over the exterior, the glove is covered with C.O.R.Tech Plus, the same as the pads.
Break Angle
The M5 Pro catcher uses Supreme’s 75-degree break angle. The 75-degree break focuses primarily on a fingertip-to-thumb closure, meaning it is designed to open wide and have a wider catch surface.
Pocket Design
The double-T pocket design supports the wide-open palm design since it naturally allows for greater openness and freedom in the hand. The wider pocket also makes it easier to track the puck, since it’s easier to see through the extra pocket rather than the leather T present in single-T variants. Bauer also added Rebound Control Foam in the palm, similar to the leg pads to help deaden pucks and make the catch easier.
Strapping
Bauer added a neoprene leverage strap to enhance that full opening in the thumb portion. The glove also includes a Range of Motion strap (R.O.M.) that is designed to keep the catcher strapped to your hand while allowing for good movement in the wrist. It is designed to lock on comfortably and closer up on your hand, which is how it is able to offer so much wrist movement.
Cuff Design
The Supreme M5 Pro catcher’s one-piece cuff has been reinforced with Bauer’s CURV composite material. The design keeps a similar look to the Supreme gloves of the past, making it the perfect upgrade if you were using a Supreme glove previously. The addition of the CURV composite reinforcement increases the catcher’s degree of protection and durability.

Goalie Catcher Sizing
More times than not, the fit of your Goalie Catcher is often overlooked. This is likely the result of the limited size availability compared to other pieces of equipment, however a properly sized Catcher provides you the protection and stick control you trust.
Which Catcher Size is for you?
The first step to finding the correct Catcher size is to utilize the “heel-of-palm-to-tip-of-middle-finger” measurement. This measurement will generally send you to the appropriate size you need.
Analyzing the Catcher Fit
It is important to make sure the palm lines up properly within the catching glove, so that it can be closed without excessive force. New goalie gloves will be difficult to close initially, but through either a standard break-in process, or "baking" the catcher with our in-house convection skate ovens, they will soften over time.
*We do not recommend using any conventional in-home ovens, as the results have been very unpredictable in the past and could damage your Catcher.*
Next you want to ensure the adjustable wrist strap goes directly across the wrist bone, and has minimal to no interference with your chest protector. The goaltender should be able to swivel their wrist to accommodate a range of save selections without any restrictions from the chest protector.
Sizing for Growing Goaltenders
For growing goaltenders we recommend following the guidelines set above, rather than sizing up to accommodate growth. Oversized goalie gloves restrict control, especially for young developing goalies. As you climb the size ladder for Catchers, typically the glove requires more strength for pocket closure.
Which Hand Do I Need?
Figuring out which hand you need for your Catcher can be slightly confusing. Goalies generally refer to themselves as "REGULAR" or "FULL RIGHT". Below is the easiest way to simplify which hand you need.

- Regular - Catcher worn on your Left Hand
- Full Right - Catcher worn on your Right Hand
