Has anybody on the forum got any of their softs range? If so what do you think of it and would you be able to post up a few pictures please :)

We have some pics on our Facebook page, here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.566391876730292.1073741828.267632753272874&type=3 (https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.566391876730292.1073741828.267632753272874&type=3)
I was impressed with the gloves at Lord's - very comfortable, decent build quality etc. Not quite as impressed with the pads, but didn't spend very long looking at them, to be honest.
-
We will have a small amount of it in stock very soon.

I have few pair of pads and only one pair of gloves left. All are on our web site
Their stock will be arriving very soon
-
Im not a big fan personally, gloves felt very stiff and small, pads felt a bit cheap for the price you pay for them.

Thanks Paul, I shall take a look at those. Which gloves did you prefer from their range?

What are you looking at stocking and when will you have some kind of price list Jake?
Thanks, Ryan

Cheers Asad, I will take a look at that soon and see if anything takes my fancy for now..

Thanks for the input mate. Was that all kinds of glove or just a specific range you tried?

We've started off by ordering in a limited number of low-mid range stuff. Going forward, especially if it proves popular, we can/will order in other items.
I'll price it up on arrival.

Had a little look at some Spartan bats today, an MC400? Had five grains, not the straightest either. No price on the bat but I'm sure one would easily be found online.

I've tried on the MC Ltd Edition batting gloves - very good quality, very comfortable, good materials, felt great to me.
Haven't seen the pads in the flesh

You're welcome, mate. Probably the Viv Richards ones...

Spartan now have only one supplier according to their rep.
I am guessing it is Sareen based on the softs.

That's what's being said in Aus!!

Right, need something cleared up please. Ltd Edition gloves - are they the sausage finger or split finger gloves? In Aus I've seen pics mixed up on a few websites. Prices here are a little OTT, will no doubt refrain from buying much until I come home.

I wouldn't be too surprised if their supplier was Sareen based on that reason. Very keen to see what the pads are like in the flesh, not convinced by MC 1000 pads' stock images. SVR ones aren't looking too shabby mind

No problem - the MC Ltd Edition are the sausage fingers, the MC 1000s are split finger. There's confusion in the UK as well - Pro Direct listed them the other way around. If you google Spartan 2013 cricket range, you get the pdf catalogue and they are listed as I have mentioned.
I've always used the pro level Kook gloves and found the Ltd Edition to be on a par in terms of quality and comfort. I've also tried the 1000s on and didn't find them as comfortable...

Thanks for clearing it up mate. Oh really? That's a shame as I was thinking of matching 1000 gloves with the LE pads. When exactly did you try the gloves?

I ordered both pairs a couple of months ago - personal preference though; I much prefer the sausage finger glove. If you're a split finger fan, they're a great glove; the materials seem very similar. There really isn't much in it in terms of quality...
You won't be disappointed in the quality or feel - materials are as good as the top end Kook gloves, in my opinion...
