Post by: sloggerroz on March 24, 2016, 03:22:30 PM
Just seen these on Harrington web site, look great but very expensive, still quite tempted though.

The are classy!! I have an older pair of AJK pads that are 2 years old which I am using this season and they are comfy and look good.
I thought the H4L Custom softs look stunning but these AJK softs are even more gorgeous!! A little more expensive too but top of the range softs do cost these days!

I'm glad that I am not planning on new softs this year as I would struggle t choose between the H4L Custom and the AJK softs  :(

£220 for a set!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Doubtless they are amazing quality and very comfy, but then so are my £35 pads.

My personal opinion is that is an insane amount of money for an amateur club player to spend on softs.

Each to their own.

well said that man. Best pads I ever had are the ones ive got now. £5.00 off ebay plus £5.00 postage. Made by Island who ive bearly heard of.
Gloves £7.50 second hand SS test-beautiful.

anyone can of course spend on whatever they like, but the above gloves and pads won't made anyone play any better

I agree, it is an insane amount of money but then someone who buys these isn't doing it because of the protection, the lightness or the level they play at they are buying them because they want something special. I suppose its a bit like buying a timex or a rolex, mondeo or a mercedes - they all do what they were designed to do but sometimes its just nice to have something special. But as you say each to their own.

They do look classy but they are a little bit too traditional with the navy for me. I loved my salix softs, I bet the quality of these is exceptional

Look lovely but the price is insane in my opinion
