As one of the original goalie mesh designs, Traditional Hard Goalie Mesh has become the goalie mesh of choice for most players. It is fairly easy to break in yet it will hold its pocket well in wet or cold weather. Traditional Hard Goalie Mesh is also durable enough to keep the pocket from stretching out for an extended perod of playing time. Overall an excellent all around mesh, Traditional Hard Goalie Mesh can be used by players of any ability.
