Title: Boom Boom Softs (Signature 175 Range)
Post by: Cover_Drive on May 03, 2011, 06:14:59 PM

Hey Guys,

Has anyone used Boom Boom Signature 175 Pads and Gloves? If so how are they? Have anyone even seen them?

They look quite good in the pictures and look much better made than last years as they (Boom Boom) shifted production to neighbour country.

I had last years Gold Signature gloves, they were a nice fit and looked good but I would not have worn them as they were not comfortable and felt like they would not last very long. This years quality is vastly better, not sold on the design or looks, they seem to have some odd patterns colour wise but much better gloves, the pads were nice too, very little between top end design, all the £100 offerings seem to be a very similar build quality, just differing cosmetic colours.

I have used and seen last years Boom Boom gold stuff, made by Ihsan was alright but this years quality looks very very improved as you said as production have been shifted to neighbour country.

Ordered a pair of Signature 175 pads and gloves from www.pakpassion.net

Will update you guys

I'm glad to see Indian/Pakistani ties being formed through soft goods, although all the Indian firms I spoke to say the best bat makers stayed in Pakistan after the division.

Err Boom Boom is an English brand, not Pakistani

From what I have heard is that CA and AM batmakers are the best in Pakistan, what's your take?

Boom Boom may technically be English but it is sponsoring Pakistan and Pakistani players.

CA are the best I've seen.

They are also sponsor for Kenya's cricket team.

But I agree on your point

Are Ihsan in Pakistan also good?

Got the pads and gloves today, I was overall impressed with them!

I will be posting a review later on.
