Chaps
Has anyone seen or heard of the above? Apparently the guy selling the all white SS gloves on ebay, has managed to source the above. Was wondering if anyone has seen these in the flesh? :D
As I have the gloves, I am tempted to get the matching pads. Though need to see them first. :(
-
I had two sets I sold one to cam
Yes but he careful as most have te black piping and are not the real deal at all
I have a set of ton pro all whites which has all white piping as there supposed to be
Vks sells them exclusively in the UK due to there agreement

oh wow, those are lush! absolutely lovely!
only difference i have been told, is the pro pads wont have the model name on them either. so wont have "test opener" written. just the white pipping with the SS red logo!
-
I had them too the other pair.
Not many people can get them at all.
Ask Cam if he is selling his they don't have test opener on side
I sold them him and I can say the vks are a better pad

Here you go mate

stunning kit! :(
will see if this guy comes through then, those pads with the all white gloves will look nice! :-[
-
There the old pro pads from around 2012 very nice just to big for my hobbit legs
-
There was a picture of some with minimal branding on the inside etc. can't for the life of me find it.

Apparently the guy selling the all white SS gloves on ebay, has managed to source the above.
Looks as if it's the guy running SQ Sports from his other items being sold - probably gets them through his supplier I guess!
-
the same guy on ebay has listed the SS All White pads... listed for £49.99 plus postage, was wondering if thats a reasonable price?
the pads look good, white pipping down bottom and no "test opener" printed on the pad...
a little different design around the embossed S compared to the ones listed above?
-
Think mine are a couple of seasons old, whereas the ones on ebay are the new ones.
I paid about that for mine so it's a reasonable price of say. If I didn't already have my pair of be very tempted :)
-
I'm so tempted by the pads and gloves combo now. Are the gloves any better quality or protection wise than the standard SS super test gloves?
-
They're more flexible out the packet and feel better on the hand.
As for protection I'll have to wack myself with a mallet while wearing both pairs and get back to you :-[
-
Thanks for the information. What are your pads like? Do they have padded straps or any other additional protection?

with the red in them I think you will be better off with a combo than just pads.
-
Found out some more information, pads are Indian men's size.
-
Indian men's size.
what's that supposed to mean!
-
what's that supposed to mean!
Closer in size to small men's or youths instead of standard UK men's.

I think the guy on eBay is a member hear I think its eagles cc might be worth asking him direct

Hi mate
No padded straps. I've added some of the ones Red Ink were selling to the top straps though, problem solved.
I've been reliably informed they have fibreboard inserted for added protection.
Will get some up close pictures and go and beat the gloves with a mallet in a minute, watch this space! :D
-
Mallet test done (no video as I had my hands full!)
Both performed well, without the Whiteouts seeming to offer any substantial extra protection. I wacked myself on each hand and if anything the bottom hand on the whiteouts offer slightly better protection on the bottom fingers.
What was apparent was the Whiteouts were bigger (longer fingers) and more flexible.
Both are great pairs of gloves in my opinion :)
-
Anyone picked up a pair of these?
-
Anyone noticed that the "Pro" is using Pads with black piping.

And here is my set of matching pads and gloves. They look amazing, even better in the flesh. They come in a very cool bag which zips open like a mini sort of coffin - really classy.
I can confirm that gloves are very roomy, definitely mens UK size (I have had other SS gloves that have been more like small mens) and pads are exactly the same size as all my other mens size pads. I am over six feet tall and these are fine for me.
Gloves especially just look fantastic. They have a variant on pittards palms which feels really soft and grippy.
I can't wait to use them in the nets. Enjoy the pics.

And I got these from SQ-Sports. Great service and communication. Highly recommended.

Welcome to the SS whiteout softs club Pilgrim, hope you enjoy them!
I've got two pairs of the gloves are absolutely lovely, and slightly more generous in size than the off the shelf Super Test gloves I've got. Ive not used them in the nets though as I want to prolong their life as long as possible :-[
As for the pads they're very comfortable, I'd even go as far as to say I nearly forgot I had them on!
Only slight critiaism is the lack of padded straps, but I got some of the leather strap pads from Red Ink which solved that (and that's being really picky!)
-
Love the look of the whiteout gear, very classy
-
I have some of the gloves available in the for sale section if anyone's interested? Only my opinion but I'd say the gloves are slightly snug fitting compared to ones I've worn in the past. That's my only reason for selling. I could get away with them but not as roomy as GM808 and Newbery Thruxton I've had in the past so this is why I'm not keeping them.
The look and quality of the gloves is great though.
-
Great work @Pilgrim, love the SS combo. Do your pads have any additional padding behind the shin bolsters? Also, do they have padded straps?
-
They have additional padding behind the shin bolsters but no padding on the straps.
I'd say the gloves are definitely as roomy as my GN E41 that I used last year. A pair of regular red and white SS gloves that I had last season were definitely tighter fitting than these are.
-
Do they have fibre boards in the vertical bolster
-
Are these pads worth 49.99 plus shipping (20 bucks) which is quite a bit to US. I have SS Matrix pads which are nice but would like to try these if they are worth it.
Appreciate if you could share your thoughts/experiences.
-
Snapped the buckle on my pads tonight, so been having a look on ebay.
Do these look genuine?

They're the same ones we've all been drooling over and raving about mate! Go for it.
And whan you say you snapped the buckly, was that a "pull a bit harder, but harder" *snap*
"Yippee, an excuse for some new pads" job?? ;)
-
Thanks mate, couldn't be bothered to read the whole thread
-
Good pads them Russ.
Newbery are ace as well, ask Dave about b3 too.
-
I think you"lol end up with B3 mate. Try before you buy!!!
-
I bought the SS all white pads, they arrived today.
They are really light and look great, good value for £50 I'm happy with them.
I'll probably be preserving these well by not getting into line and have short innings so I don't sweat too much in them (not on purpose though).
This forum is a bit dangerous, I've never been really bothered about kit before and I'd never heard of these pads until about a week ago but I want the matching gloves now.
-
Nurse... We have another one with kititus!

well i can definitely say the gloves are very nice! like many others have already confirmed on here mate.
-
Have a pair of the gloves, brand new in the ' for sale ' section on here mate. :)
-
The pads are really, really light. I don't think they have the fibre boards in the vertical bolster though but still feel like they will offer great protection.
The gloves are even better than the pads so I would definitely get a matching pair. You won't regret it. I am already thinking about getting a second pair of gloves!
-
@Andythomo21 I can't get into the For Sale section cos I don't have 150 posts.
Are they left handed?
Are they new?
Can you deliver when my missus is out?

Accept it another 6 months on the forum and you'll have 3 sets of softs to go with your 3 bats 😉

I know mate, inevitable

They are new but right handed. Sorry. Could have arranged delivery when your wife was out. We all need that service on here! :D
-
Do they have fibre boards in the vertical bolster
Only just had the chance to check and they do actually have the fibre boards in the vertical bolsters. Love them more every time I look at them.
-
Would seem all the pads have sold out... thankfully i got a pair for myself! :-[
