Asics don't do cricket clothing in the UK, no plans to do so either last time i asked them.

Nikes are closer to the Asics (based on the look of the Asics shiner finish) and are a bit cheaper too.

I have stock of both :)

Jake, if you don't mind me asking (feel free to say no) did Asics expand on why they haven't entered the UK cricket clothing market?  They seem like top notch products.  I especially  like the yellow piped test shirts Australia have worn over the last couple of seasons.

I'm paraphrasing, but it went something like this:

Logistics/supply chain changes would be needed. Not to mention the fact that if they were to offer clothing properly, they would have to supply a few county sides (for exposure) and also club sides, which brings another set of obstacles.
