I’ve noticed a lot of lads from other teams wearing this sweatbands but there with straps. But I don’t know what there called, hopefully someone can help us out. I’ve attached a link which hopefully helps.

I'm not sure it's just a sweatband. I believe Ross broke his wrist a few years a go and it's actually a protective pad for the wrist, a sort of cut down forearm guard.
-
do you know what there called mate?
-
I think he means he's fashioned it himself. Looks like it could be a part of an arm guard under some tubagrip bandage even. Old thread on it here....

Rolling back the years now where I used Poron (before everyone jumped on the XRD bandwagon) they did a decent job though as a hybrid forearm/sweatband accessory and the pros seemed to like them (my mum less so having had her do the sewing!).

Cheers Tom you don’t have any by any chance or know we’re I can get the stuff for it do you.

I’ve got a couple of hundred sweatbands still and I’d recommend looking at D3O as a material if you are seeking some form of protection.
I’ll check as I may have some sheets around from when doing R&D into the helmets.

Cheers Tom just drop us a pm when you get a chance

Yeah, I’ve prob got some of that as well as we considered it when looking into the military market liner too. I’ll have a hunt around in the depths of my R&D materials boxes.
