The Vaughn Velocity V10 Pro Carbon Senior Goalie Catcher features an entirely new design and shape geared toward maximizing net coverage. This includes a broader and deeper T-web design, unified one-piece cuff and thumb, and an easy-close mechanism with a deep pocket area. Enhanced protection is achieved through Kevlar® padding on the inner palm and VAS Shock Shield padding on the palm and thumb base, reducing hand stingers.
The V10 Pro Carbon Catcher incorporates a Carbon molded palm and front thumb insert, along with a deeper back thumb profile for added hand comfort. Double-layer reinforced finger perimeter edges and a Pure composite material in the palm, significantly lighter than plastic, contribute to durability and reduced weight. The catcher includes a Hex mesh inner lining for quicker drying, HD foam in the back pad over fingers, and a finger tip deflecting rail with HD foams for impact absorption. With a Carbon reinforced T-top for greater web stability, an inner hand strap for retention and control, and a cuff without binding to maximize blocking surface, the gear is designed for optimal performance.
The V10 Pro Carbon Catcher measures 45" in perimeter size and offers a 60º angle palm break with easy flex design, while mesh finger stalls ensure comfort and heat dispersal. Additional comfort is provided through added wrist strap padding, and can be heat molded for a precise fit. Lastly, defined break points facilitate easy closing with full Pro-spec domestic quality.

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.
