Morrant international ultralites are great.

I use 2 strap puma kinetics and some friends of mine use 2 strap calibre's and iridium's and not a bad complain at all.

All are lightweight and comfortable for batting and running.

I've owned 3 types & in order of excellence I'd place them as follows:

1. Morrant International Ultralites
2. GM RSBs
3. Morrant Super Ultralites

I don't think so.

My friend tried my Puma pads and he found them to be a bit big although he is 5.6

If you are interested in seeing height comparison of Puma 2 Strap pads and normal traditional style pads let me know I will take pictures for you.
