We're on the ball Matt!
Any of these production models 2.13-2.15?
-
These look fantastic! Incredible stickers and a lovely shape! Top work H4L!
-
Nowt gets past the forum for long !!
Like the shape, sort of a bit old school but with the thick edges of modern bats.
Looks like another winner shape wise.
Thumbs up and a great offer from Matt and Adam to let us try them out at the CBF nets on Sunday.
Cam has always wanted to do a proper you tube review haha. :)
-
Absolutely stunning Matt, great work!
-
Very nice - look forward to seeing some profile shots and comparison vs the hellfire
-
Very quick everyone!!! :)
You can see a few more pics on our blog - http://h4lcricket.tumblr.com/ (http://h4lcricket.tumblr.com/). We'll be posting more shortly and hopefully on the site to buy from Thursday ;)
Softs coming the following week. Something very different this year!!! :D
-
Is it supposed to be a Hattori replacement? The stickers kinda remind me of those SF blue and yellow camo Dwayne Smith bats.
I do love the colour combo of blue and yellow, big thumbs up from me Matt
-
Even more stunning the yellow and blue go so well and can't wait for the softs to come out
-
Everyone's commenting on the profile and stickers, but god, the grains are fantastic

It's actually a top draw burger ! Lol :D
-
I bet that has a serious middle!!!
There is some serious quality coming out of that workshop :)
-
Is it short blade longer handle setup?

Liked rather appetising as I was scrolling past it whilst sat in a trustees meeting!! Went for another can of thatchers instead as a substitute 👍

No standard blade I think

Can You Order The 50/50 With Bigger Edges ;) ;) :):). Are You Still Doing A Monster Version With The Branded Emblem On The Side? Or Is This To Comply With The New Bat Regulations For 2018 Season. :( :( :( :( :(
-
Shape...Meh. Because its H4L forum falling over themselves.
Stickers look good.
-
love the look and style of the stickers cant wait to see the softs
-

I expected the "forum are sheep" post earlier tbh.
What's not to like, long long and wide middle, will ping all over, reminds me of the b3 trott-1271 bat.
It probably won't sell well, as mace shows, the public are still massive edge obsessed.
-
I can't say that I love the stickers but I love the traditional profile and the minimal concaving. You can't argue with the quality of the workmanship from H4L.
-

@hell4leather cricket - ah man!!! Do you realise how hard that stuff is to come by these days? It is truly the best beer ever! I'm going to Chapeldown to lay a stock in, I'll drop in and wave some sort of bribe in front of you!!

Love the shirts
-
I'm not quite clear on the profile of these - does anyone have a decent, clear profile shot - perhaps lying down?
Is it a bit like a much toned-down Tempo Mk1 profile?
-
The jumbo a like with minimal edges, is a howitzer. All for old school edges.

I am not sure that lying down and taking a photo will help! ;)
-
It might if you hold the camera at the right angle - besides, who doesn't love a nice lie-down?

Hello Smilley It's Not An Obsession, It's A Preference. Some People Prefer Lighter Bats With Smaller Thinner Edges. I Like My Bats With Big Edges And Heavy, As Soon As I Could Afford It I Have Always Had My Bats Made With Thick Edges And Very Heavy 3lbs+ For Nearly 16 years. Anything Lighter Feels Like A Toothpick On Pick Up. The Trend I Have Noticed Recently Now Is For Thinner Lighter Bats With A Longer Wider Sweet Spots. Which Is Exactly What The Hell4leather fifty50 Provides. I Like Hell4leather And I Had To Ask The Question Because "Big" Is My Preferred Profile.

I that why GN are bringing the David Warner shape out for next season?
-
Big fan of that shape
I quite like the stickers too
Look forward to a look at one this weekend
-
what's the significance of the 'fifty50' name if any?
-

I'd imagine its something to do with being a quite traditional shape with a modern twist. Possibly 50% of each?
-

You Are Absolutely Right And It's A Lovely Bat. But GN Have Only Released The David Warner Big Profile In Aussie This Year{Those Fearful U.K Custom Charges} The U.K Version Is Smaller From What I Can Tell. Plus This Profile Has Been Around For A While And GN Are Only Just Releasing It Officially For The Coming Season? A Bit Slow.
-
Handed them it on a plate, the Jumbo a like is a big bat with old school edges and flies.
-

or that it's a bat designed for 50 over cricket as opposed to a T20 bat.
-
Big fan of the profile and colour scheme set up, deciding 2017 kit is getting bloody hard for us forum geeks lol
-
Am I the only one who saw 'fifty50' and expected some kind of big edge monster?
-

Depending on how long you have been playing(!!) they are still pretty thick edges...
Maybe the trend will go slightly smaller in anticipation of some new regs coming in?
I've got a pretty big edged bat now and I'll be honest I quite like it. However the edges are the weak point.
We def seem to be moved away from huge concaving back to more full profiles....
-
Don't really see the need for edges a lot bigger than these anyway tbf, never seems to make the ball go further off them when I use a big edged bat! Realised I may have given the wrong impression as I quite like the look of this profile, just seems an odd choice of name. Would love to see some better profile shots and hear of there's any different reasoning behind the name.
Expect youre right about smaller bats, I'm sure we'll see plenty of new shapes marketed for 'coverage' or 'extra long middle' etc in the near future. Imagine most batmakers arent sure whether to shake their head or breathe a sigh of relief at big bats getting banned!

Like people have said the 50+ is out for the big bat fans and the XP80 is out with a "smaller" edge but mahoosive spine.
Nothing wrong with this shape but its not really new or head turning (Which is fine).
-
Thats my kind of bat
-
A few from the photoshoot. Hopefully show the profile. Although slightly more traditional shape, they are not small ;)
Approx 64mm spine. 32mm edge. 28mm toe. No concaving.
This bat weighs just under 2.10 fully dressed. More photos and will be availble to order on the site soon.

If only I had the pennies to spare for one of those!
-
@H4Ladam , what is the difference between Pro and G-1 clefts? Are Pro low density?
-
Loving the thick toe.. broke too many bats against cheap balls on low bounce wickets.
-
Whilst I am not the worlds biggest h4l fan, and the stickers are not for me, that is a lovely shape.
-
If only I didn't need a new helmet :( love this shape and the stickers! Damnit
-
Yeah ok I get the idea
Stop with all the pictures!!!!!
I'll be down to buy one ASAP !ha
-
shape is really good on this, H4L tend to make bat shapes that are good to use
do agree thou on stickers, not my favourite although the bats probably are
worth remembering H4L do have a black and silver sticker set up for custom models......these look superb
-
Liking the profile...long middle, high spine , thick toe what else one need
Lovely grains on the clefts below the Pro grade bat too :)
-
Has any one mentioned the stickers? Which are stunning.
The grains are unreal on the stick!
The grip is really nice, matches.
-
i think depending on the softs i could be very tempted by a full set
-
Softs look just as good!
-
This colour scheme looks quite similar to the M&H mh16.
-
Softs look just as good!
have you seen any pictures yet?
-
Yes
That nice I'd buy em without seeing them in the flesh!
I like a bit er colour in my softs, not a fan of all white, but I know many are
And knowing h4l softs, they will be up there for protection and durability
-
where are the pictures?
i do like colour in my kit as well. i do love my current h4l bat and gloves
-
Ah sorry mate, my bad
Not sure matts officially released pics, before the retailers get them instore?
Dug myself into a hole
-
I've ordered a set of gloves & a Pro. Want to see the pads before I commit, so much for having a quiet winter!!
-
Gloves are very nice indeed
-
Gloves, what gloves :D
