Learn the story behind BambaraGK

Designed for the next generation of goalkeepers.

BambaraGK is a UK goalkeeper glove brand built around one simple idea – to give young players the same quality, comfort and protection as the professionals.


Our gloves are designed for the real world of grassroots football: muddy pitches, early mornings and endless passion. Every pair is created to help young goalkeepers feel confident, protected and proud to play.


The brand was founded by Rob Chapman, inspired by his late father, Michael Chapman, who the MC21 model is named after. The name is more than a label; it represents family, resilience, and the belief that small beginnings can grow into something strong.


Each design blends modern innovation with eco-conscious materials, including bamboo lined interiors and sustainable packaging. Our aim is to make goalkeeper gloves that perform at the highest level while remaining accessible to the next generation of players.


We’re proud to support grassroots football across the UK and to work with charities such as Ocumel UK, raising awareness and giving back through every pair sold. Whether you’re just starting out or dreaming of the top level, BambaraGK is made for keepers who play with heart.
