The Sherwood T90 Catcher offers solid protection along with an awesome sleek look due to the weave material.
The T90 catcher uses synthetic leather almost all the way throughout catcher with some nylon on the back side and stitched on synthetic weave material to provide the design. Sherwood has designed this catcher with an ergonomically correct break that allows all four fingers to open and close the catcher. This design allows this catcher to be game ready right out of the packaging. The Sherwood T90 catcher uses a single-T pocket to help control rebounds and the design of this catcher creates a perfect seal on the playing surface when covering the puck. Sherwood has used a flared blocking cuff on the T90 catcher which deflects stray pucks and enhances the wrist mobility. The backside of the T90 catcher uses armadillo-like padding on the back of the hand to provide maximum protection with good flexibility.
On the inside of the T90 catcher, Sherwood has used a standard mesh in the fingers and over the hand to provide great breathability. The palm and wrist is lined with a moisture-wicking material to help keep the catcher dry at all times. Sherwood has used three adjustments on this catcher; a strap over the fingers, a strap directly over the main part of the hand, and a padded wrist strap. The padded wrist strap helps to lock on the catcher while still providing comfort and protection to the wrist.
