Neon neoprene one is the best by miles out of my selection, blade only if it's going inside a bag, job done!

I have quite a few from many different brands.
I would avaoid new balance as mine left red marks all over my bat. However, they are slightly longer than the rest so good if you have a long handle/blade.
I find the neoprene ones excellent I think neon do neoprene ones or alternatively mongoose.
There were some Bradbury ones on eBay for £7 posted which are good and appear to be from the same manufacturer as the h4L, affinity etc ones you get. (Not neoprene)
I always go for full length covers.
I got a cheap SF one from  hockeycricket which I think is in Salisbury. Personally I’m not a fan of the windows you get in some covers as I find it unnecessary and just leaves an unprotected area.
I have a CP cover which has a zip rather than a Velcro fastening and that for me is also brilliant.

The bat sleeves on my duffle are full length and padded. I have an additional full length sleeve for those occasions when I might need to carry a bat alone, such as for indoor.

Mine is GM, I paid about £10 for it.

Full length GM ones by far the best. If you want blade only I have 2 GN padded ones you can have if your based in the uk

Originally thought you meant as in having an arm guard integrated with a long sleeve of a playing shirt. That would be class.

Aedos Cricket did the best padded bat cover I’ve seen. The front flap opened out and inside was thick foam padding with shape of a cricket bat cut out of it. You simply inserted you bat into the cut out and zipped it shut for complete protection for your willow. As I remember they were only about a tenner, so great value as well. In fact they were a good all round company with good bats and good looking softs, they used to be a sponsor on here.

£5.95 for blade-length Woodworm covers here: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/202304133494 (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/202304133494)

Cheapest I've seen.

Used GM ones in the past and been fairly happy with them.
