Title: Small Mens Pads....
Post by: peplow on November 14, 2009, 07:50:43 PM

I know there are a few subjects called this but i have a couple of questions that people may know the answers to..as i do not!

How much smaller are small mens pads than mens (e.g. the full length of pad in mens is 62cm (Kook RP's) what would the small mens be do we reckon approx??

Also do the pads get smaller proportionately ??? does the top hat/wings on side etc etc get smaller aswell...

Is the protection the same as mens?

Cheers

a lot of pros wear the smaller pads (nasser husaain used to), either for comfort or to dupe the umpire about "hitting above the roll".

Dont know for sure but i imagine everything from top hat/knee etc would be reduced proportionatly surely? Would look odd otherwise!

No idea about measurements being 6ft 3in never really spent too much time looking at small mens sizes! haha
