Bought some strippers today. Being a bit of a kit snob, I originally wanted the P1's. OK, so I'm not going to be facing 90mph bowling, but I like to have top ofthe range kit - anyway, they're freaking HUGE!!!! Could't come to terms with how bulky they were, so have opted for P2's instead.
Was just wondering if anyone here shared this opinion?
-
I'm afraid im going to have to disagree on this one - i found that they are extremely comfy and fit well - it takes a bit of getting used to having the hip protector but im used to it now. I just wish they could incorporate something so there is a box included with the stripper! I'm similar too when it comes to kit - prefer to spend that bit extra and get the quality.
-
I got rid of the hip pad as soon as I got them, they are so comfy! Maybe you got the wrong size johnny?
-
Have agree with the comments above and i would add that the strippers are the best product to hit the market in the last 10 years, that's how good they are and would suggest you had the wrong size.
-
I agree, I find the strippers very bulky, personally opted for custom made thigh pads which in my opinion are the best on the market.
-
Well I'm 6ft tall, and I tried Large. It wasn't the length that was the problem, but more just how wide the front pad is. Preferred the P2's as they are narrower. Don't mind the hip protection. Agreed, they are comfortable (though not worn them in anger yet, and it's opissing it down here so might have to wait another week)

love my obos ones but I also did take my hip protection out but everthing else is good! Probably going to get the aero p2s now
