The Catalyst 5x6 catcher features many key pieces that make it a solid and reliable catcher for goaltenders. It has a 590 break angle with a neutral feel which is perfect for catching pucks, a double T pocket which provides a traditional feel when catching pucks, and a webbing strap system which allows goalies to tailor the fit of the catcher to their desire. Available in a variety of colors, and a full-right option for those who catch the puck with their right hand.
External Material
TRUE uses JenPro material on the outer construction of this catcher. This durable material provides the glove with a reliable and solid outer build, and it helps keep the catcher in shape for longer. JenPro is a trusted material and is found on nearly all of TRUE’s goalie equipment because of its reliability, appearance, and overall performance that it provides.
Break Angle
Featuring a 590 break angle, this helps goalies trap the puck and hold onto shots going into their catchers. It is designed to provide better closure, feel, and responsiveness for the butterfly goalie. This break angle requires binding of the fingertips to meet the thumb in order to close the glove.
Pocket Design
The pocket uses a double T design. The benefits of the double “T” include a wider pocket opening and improved puck tracking when looking through the pocket when freezing the puck. The pocket also features a skate lace closure, which softens the pocket and creates a deeper cradle and reduces the chance of a pop-out, allowing goalies to hold onto more rebounds.
Strapping
With a nylon webbing strapping system, it provides goalies a great option to customize their fit. This gives goalies the ultimate fit and adjustability, providing a secure and comfortable feel on their hand.
Cuff Design
The floating cuff on the 5x6 catcher is designed to provide goalies with an additional level of protection from pucks, sticks, and skates. It is built to protect goalies, while also providing mobility so that they are not feeling restricted.
Palm Material
This catcher is designed with a game-ready palm. The game ready palm on this catcher utilizes thinner, more pliable materials. This design prioritizes immediate, off-the-shelf flexibility and an easy closure, allowing goalies to snap the glove shut without having to break it in too much.
Sizing & Colors
The TRUE Catalyst 5x6 Senior Goalie Catcher comes in a regular and full-right catch hand, full-right is designed for those who catch with their right hand. This catcher also comes in Black, Red/Black, Black/White, White, White/Black, White/Red, and White/Royal.

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.
