they are awful, cheaply made, bad protection and are not good quality, they are the same i would say as typical £20-£30 pads from other retailers!

they are simply awful and a waste of money, i would reccoment kahuna RP, ice sub zero's, Newberys, Warsop, GM all their pads in the same price range are more than twice as good!

absolute rubbish - Adidas softs are the among best out of any brand this year

The gloves have the best designed side protection - very flexible and provide full coverage. The gloves are very soft and very comfortable to play in. The green bits on the palm-side fingers is extra grip to hold the bat - very effective and a nice touch indeed. The design is very good apart from the pale green finger.

The pads are made from high density foam with no cane construction so are very flexible and wrap easily around your legs. The straps are also very strong the the inner padding can be removed and washed so they don't go sweaty and yellowy. Adidas are serious and it shows.

Musa speak to most people and they all moan about the quality of Adidas goods. Kookabura, Salix, Newbery, GN were all ahead in designs and quality for me this season.

and his are most likely different to the ones we buy!

the pro pads will be considerably different if not im sure that kevin pietersen, ian bell and rory hamilton brown will be left with bruised legs from 90mph bowling, shows how bad they are, although they look good, and apparently the pro's are very unhappy about the soft goods according to tom.

the bats they wudnt know about as rory hamilton browns is a newbery, apparently KP's are hawk??? and ian bells still from slazenger (according to puma kid who has seen his bat) (maybe pro slazengers are good???)

So many small firms desperate to claim they make for this Pro, that Pro. Colly's Slazenger is genuine stock shape and from Sondhi, a big and light one but still as per the ones in the shops. I have 2 here and impressed by them.

I thought KP disliked the Glove's, Pads were OK.

Mike ive got one of collys bats at the time of the SE range and it isnt at all like the stock range. This may have changed with the new range however either way great bats!

I meant that he uses the same bats as he did when he was with slazenger. i.e fusion
