HPG is a North American company providing top quality soccer goalkeeping gear at factory direct pricing. Our match quality gloves guided Jon Busch, HPG founder and pro goalkeeper through a 21 year career in the MLS and to accolades including MLS keeper of the year in 2008.
Our products are built to support a blue collar style of play and ultimately compare to the best products from the worlds biggest brands… at a level of quality they simply can’t match for the price.
Throughout his 21 year professional career Jon played for the MLS's Columbus Crew, Chicago Fire and San Jose Earthquakes and has represented the United States on the international stage at the U-17, U-20 and full team levels. After being named NCAA All American at UNC-Charlotte Jon then spent the first 5 years of his professional career playing the U.S.I.S.L. where in 2001 he was named Goalkeeper of the Year.
In 2002 Jon was drafted by the Columbus Crew and won the U.S. Open Cup during his 5 seasons with the club. In 2007 Jon joined the Chicago Fire and in 2008 was named MLS Goalkeeper of the Year. Jon later signed with the San Jose Earthquakes and retired in 2018 after spending his last 2 seasons with the Indy Eleven as a player/assistant coach.
During Jon's time in San Jose, the idea of HPG was formed from a desire to give every youth goalkeeper the opportunity to wear top quality gloves, just like the pros, at affordable prices - HPG was born. A decade later, the brand continues to deliver on its promise with every product being designed, tested and worn by Jon Busch.

HPG was created based on two founding principals. 1. Our gloves had to perform at a level that would support the worlds best, most demanding keepers. And 2. They had to do so at a reasonable price. Here's how we do it.
Keepers are hard on their gear and we know how easy it can be to break down your gloves. By cutting out the middle man HPG offers top quality keeper gear at pricing lower than other brands who sell through retail.
Brands can try to sell you gloves for wet weather and dry weather but at the end of the day there’s not much difference. At least from our experience. HPG gloves provide palm foam that deliver maximum grip in all conditions.

The less time you spend thinking about your gear, the more time you have to focus on the game. Every HPG keeper glove is designed and build with premium fabrics that offer minimal weight and maximum breathability.
With over 20 years of professional play between the posts Jon Busch earned his stripes by outworking the competition and putting it all on the line. The same holds true for HPG. Every product that dawns the HPG badge has been designed, tested, worn and approved by Jon.
