Title: Newbery Tour Soft

Am thinking of buying myself a set. Anyone out there got some? Are they as nice as they look in the pictures??

Hey buddy

One of my teammates used full tour kit for a season and a half.

The pads look lovely if they're looked after (I.e not covered in mud and dust, then left to stain!)
The gloves were nice looking too, but he got through 2 pairs a season (then again he doesn't wear inners which probably didn't help)

Do you think it's lots of sweaty use or poor quality??

Like I said he doesn't wear any inners, and uses one pair of gloves at a time.
He nets 3 or 4 times through the week and opens Saturday's and Sunday's so im putting it down to heavy use and lack of care rather than poor quality mate.
Hope that helps  :)
