Title: Cricket Trousers
Post by: pacman75cricket on August 07, 2011, 06:54:22 PM
Interested in a new pair of cricket trousers.

Had a nice paid of Kookaburra stay cool before, any recommendations for light breathable trousers.

As a batsman any suggestions appreciated, saw a pair of CCC batting trousers any one used them.

At the moment I have some cheap slazenger trousers from sports direct, seemed to get friction burns every week from sliding with them until I started to wear some knee supports underneath (didn't fancy shelling out loads for skins or something like that).

Never had this problem before so maybe the slazengers are asbestos lined or just too cheap.

If the north gear ones are good I'll have to get a pair to replace mine.

Thanks for the discount code johnny.

They are the best I have tried. Although I usually only have cheap ones.

There light as johnny said, haven't ripped and have washed well so can't really complain

I used to wear Slazenger ones from Sports Direct they were a bit harsh on the knees when fielding. Now using Adidas Cricket trousers Clima cool, really happy with them. Not sure what material they are made out of, but they are really smooth, comfortable, light and cool.

If you are willing to pay for them, the nike gameday trousers are the absolute nuts, very very light and have the dri fit design. Also they are good for sliding so they won't take the skin off of your knees when trying to stop the ball.

I think the Nike ones are worth the money, plus they aren't covered in nasty branding so they look better too...

One of the oppo last week had some of those fielding trousers on and he had a shiny (No Swearing Please)! which must be the in built "sliding" panels.

I seem to recall seeing the Swoosh in two places on the gameday trousers, so really they're covered in just as much if not more of that nasty branding.

mine have a small navy swoosh and no other branding, other trousers have branding on the leg as well as much bigger branding where the swoosh is.
am pretty surprised anyone would challenge this.

I don't like branding. So I wear nike.

I think the Nike trousers are low on branding. A small Nike tick on the hip and nothing else. A lot better than say the Canterbury ones for example.

We have had those before. Decent quality. We has the Surridge Sports ones and they seem massive, really low crotch on them.

I get your point and am slightly amused by your inference, but the point is, there isn't god awful text down the trousers leg, or a massive obtrusive logo, neither are things I appreciate.
you can take or leave your feelings on what the nike brand represents, which can be good, but more frequently filthy and if you don't like it, I understand.
theirs are very good cricket trousers though, which is I am most interested in.

West Indian export quality perhaps?
