Post by: edge on June 27, 2018, 11:22:24 AM

These keep popping up on Facebook adverts, anyone with any knowledge? www.auracricket.co.uk (http://www.auracricket.co.uk) , new thigh pads etc supposedly ballistic gear inspired, flexible and fit in special compression shorts. Still look a bit bulky for my liking judging by the photos, apparently Aussie made - any upside down forumites seen much of them?

My skipper uses these, look decent - much thinner than Aeros

Great way of demonstrating how good they are for cricket... Take them to a firing range and shoot a shotgun at them...

Look very expensive for a thigh pad set

Isn't the price comparable to that of Remfry or Stretton Fox?

Admittedly these are the top end of the market, but the price isn't too out of line with the competition

I assumed they were Stretton Fox, in a new label!

Being an Australian company I highly doubt it
