Don't think Masuri will do that for you mate, think they're a bit strict on it!

Why do you want a durham logo on your helmet? Its pretentious and a little bit egotistic if you ask me.... not to mention stupid, when it turns out you're nowhere near good enough to wear it, opening yourself up for all sorts of stick!

Thats a bit strong fella. I think we are here to help not hinder and certainly not attack. Have you never worn a replica shirt? be it football or cricket?

If the lad want to wear a lid like what mustard used... his choice.

I wear an ayrtek that looks like its an extra at a rave party... once again my choice but in getting there I get help and assistance from people like Tom, not cutting remarks and opinionated views that don't actually help anyone.

I'm assuming Toenails97 is just a young lad anyhoo so it's more a fan things rather than assuming he is egotistical.

In most instances in life if you can't help don't comment.

Tony I'll have a snoop around and see if i can't get the logo in a decent format for you to have worked on.

I didn't think so... I wasn't being nasty, was just making the point that he would look silly when it turns out he wasn't actually a Durham player (unless he is), and in which case he would get one anyway, and I massively disagree with wearing county colours for club games anyway. Speak to Shaq, I bet he knows someone who knows someone and could get you an actual masuri with the crest on it.

I think Nick's point is that there is a reason you cannot easily get these stickers/ready made helmets in the shops.  England Lions have a different helmet badge to the full England team. Why? Because helmet badges in cricket are earned.  ;)

I have had my custom helmet from ayrtek for 2 seasons now and its been brilliant. Yep I know they cost a bit but i value my good looks  :o  :D Plus we are all willing to spend a lot of money on bats I just saw it as common sense to pay a little more for something i kew could save me from serious injury if that ball had my name on it!

The lid has been faultless, looks pretty sharp even for shrinking violet like myself!  ;)  the service is as anyone who had dealt with Tom will tell you second to none.

Very true re logos, have done a few county helmets but have turned down requests from people wanting an England helmet for example.

We have the Durham artwork on file in vector format but I think tony is after an embroidered version rather than a decal which proves a little more tricky in low volumes

I don't see a flaw in that, but when friends of mine asked for a lid with a pakistani or W.I crest on them i just did what i could to help them get that not point out that they didn't get a call up for the 3rd XI locally let alone an international call.  :D  ;) ha!

I just think it's often worth re reading text as it can often lack the personality of the person that writes it.   :)

Correct, apologies Tony, was probably a bit too early to be diplomatic this morning.
