The best is....

to go to the shop and try for yourself, by all means get a good idea from people who own and use the kit but only you can know what you like.

Noe of the above, I am affraid mate..........Adidas Pads are among the worst for value on the market, can I ask why your so interested in Adidas pads? personally i like to match my brands, hense all Newbery for me in 2010.

strange that - tom put's up a link yesterday with the SG Hilite's in and the next minute you want to buy them - imitation is the greatest form of flattery :)

They are both good pads and both would protect you well. But i thought in this link you said you have an adidas bat and want to buy adidas gear?

Or I may do what you are going to do and stick some Adidas Logos on some pads.

I was just looking at pads mate!

lol - someone has a good memory - for the record, there is very little point in doing this as it would be a very nearly impossible task unless you have the appropriatte tools - but by all means, be my guest. Does beg the question, why spend all the money on the Kook RP's when you want to sticker them up - surely buy some cheap blanks and do it that way around?

Good point but I wouldn't spend $170 I would get them off Online Stockist for just $80!

Also anyone know a good website that sells plain gloves?

Post by: SillyShilly on September 28, 2009, 09:29:58 AM

Good luck to you then - put up some pictures when you've done it, be interesting to see what it looks like.
Ebay england have a few sellers from india that do plain gloves - i have a pair and i am very happy with the quality - they cost me £22 posted - should be a very similar price for postage to aus.
