Title: 100% Wool Cricket Vests
Post by: Gcricket on July 15, 2013, 06:25:37 AM: I'm trying to find a plain white 100% Wool Cricket Vest. They are very hard to locate and was wondering if anyone on this forum had one. I have done another thread a couple of months ago I know but I didnt find one so am doing one now! I also live in Australia so there is also postage costs.
Thanks!

Professional what?

I haven't seen a professional cricket player wear a wool or string vest since the early 80's... most people these days uses some form of polyester compression vest/t-shirt

seems like a bit of an odd ask

Yes they had a very posh vintage cricket style vests out recently for about 90 quid or so. Wool is not very practical these days so you will struggle to find anything in cricket shops. Your best is charity/vintage shops or designer labels.

Title: Re: 100% Wool Cricket Vests
Post by: Bulldog Cricket on July 29, 2013, 09:12:37 PM: I would have thought £15 would cover the postage to Australia, may be cheaper and would refund the difference if it was.

Thanks
