Bah humbug - rubbish iPhone pics don't do these justice! >:(
Sexy new purple stickers with matching grip and a new model name 'Pedigree' that will be used for bespoke orders.

Purple is very in vogue at the moment.
-
Look very nice Johnny! Very nice blade too!
-
Looks good... I want a bat with a nice flat face...
-
I saw the new stickers on his new website, and I thought they were a bit minging. The purple was a total surprise when I opened the box, as he doesn't actually advertise Pedigree on the site.
Can't decide whether it's a case of them looking better on the flesh, or looking better in purple.
-
These are both flat faced. The new website offers flat, cambered or hybrid pressing on all bats.

Detailing looks nice but that sticker shape in horrible
-
Personally I think they are horrible and make a very goof company look cheap!
-
They look a bit like a 90's version of a noughties design theme. I don't think they really hang together quite right and I'm not sure quite way. It may well be that its the odd combination of shapes that is causing the issues. Hexagons, circles and trapezoids seems over fussy maybe?
-
Yeh not sure they are a step forward. Many different elements that don't really gel in my opinion. Much prefer the previous design...
-
Think they're horrible. Colour is good, shape is awful!
-
Definitely nicer in the flesh though
-
Really don't like these at all. If they were to be used on a 'bespoke' bat you would expect them to be top notch and really stand out such as the BB black and chrome embossed or the Black Cat Custom stickers as two examples. These stand out, but for all the wrong reasons. The CF 'standard' stickers are much better than these.
-
All the stickers are this design for 2013. It's just the purple and the 'Pedigree' that mark this out as an exclusive
-
Really? I'm surprised if they have been seen as an improvement on the previous design :o
-
The stickers 2 generations ago were the nicest. At first I didn't really like the last ones either, but they grew on me

Whats impact does the face press have on performance?? :(
-
I dont think it has any charlie, just a personal preferance i guess, just another "custom feature"
-

It shouldn't really effect the performance, if it does the curves are normally put in to give more protection towards the edges of the bat. It will effect where the ball rebounds to though
-
So these new style stickers must not have gone down well, since they're scrapped already!!
Seems the whole range is being relaunched with new names for all models (and they're all named after beer or guitars)
New style stickers too.

They say the difference between purple and pink is your grip! :D
