Title: What combination of thigh pad do you wear?
Post by: 19reading87 on January 11, 2019, 09:24:22 AM: Interested to see what combination of thigh pads people wear... if at all? Also, explain here as to why you wear what you do.

Post by: SOULMAN1012 on January 11, 2019, 04:54:59 PM: I have the GM OLE thigh pad set all in one which is fine and perfect protection. However I feel the set up of individual Adidas thigh guard and inner guard are more comfy

Post by: leatherseat on January 11, 2019, 05:29:35 PM: I find all in ones too bulky. For the standard I now play at, one pad is plenty. I have had difficulty finding a single pad that is a good size (far more choice in 'All in one' pads, hence me trying aero P2s, large mens, which now languish in the bottom of my bag).

Post by: ProCricketer1982 on January 11, 2019, 05:30:08 PM: Stratton’s and have just got a second new set as the initial ones are now way to big for me. Shrinking a few Stone kinda helps

Post by: six and out on January 11, 2019, 05:35:30 PM: I have worn P2's for years and they simply do the job, protect and are comfy and don't break the bank.

I have always wondered what Strettons are like though.

Post by: Seniorplayer on January 11, 2019, 09:09:26 PM: Have P2s but find them bulky just wear cut down outer small thigh pad covering top of thigh down to pad top hat.

Post by: delazy on January 17, 2019, 04:08:44 AM: strettons for sure! i cashed out in the lead up to the australian season... dont regret the big spend one bit! such a good bit of gear!
Title: Re: What combination of thigh pad do you wear?
Post by: SD on January 17, 2019, 02:07:26 PM: I use the P2s but they aren't a great fit on me (the thigh pads that are available for my waist size don't cover a gap between my leg guards and the bottom of the outer thigh pad) and bowlers have an unnerving ability to find that area. I am interested in Strettons but have heard that they are close to realising a new product. Does anyone have any info on timescales?

Post by: InternalTraining on January 17, 2019, 03:03:23 PM: Used to wear Aero P1s with Aero P1 leg guards but these days no thigh guard.

Post by: Ayrtek Cricket on January 17, 2019, 10:55:51 PM: I’ll be dusting off my custom Stretton a for another seasons use once indoor nets start again on the 9th Feb.

Need to break in new pads too after managing to spike my others last season when attempting a quick single🤦‍♂️
Title: Re: What combination of thigh pad do you wear?
Post by: langer17 on January 18, 2019, 04:09:58 AM: Use a Remfry outer. I have the inner as well but I've gone back to just an outer for this season as I feel like I move better without it. Copped one on the inside thigh which bruised up nicely though haha.
