bit minging if you ask me
-
They're interesting & a bit different, but not for me
-
I like them alot...
-
Obviously nothing wrong with the branding and from a very decent bat maker, can never understand why people start topics regarding stickers they don't like.

Its interesting to discuss and allows people to express their view, either agreeing or disagreeing and explaining why. I hadn't seen the new stickers and wouldn't have unless Johnny had posted this topic.
Talking of stickers I dont like... I remember some that were really Gash! :D

Safe Leo ;)
-
their flagship bat has the same name as a Gibson guitar

Cant see you getting near any Gash, I'm told your more of a Throbber boy than a gash .
-
Can't say either really attracted me
-
i love charlie french bats/equiptment but these new graphics are vile!
-
The stickers look like they've been designed on paint!
-
They look very good in the flesh and use high quality stickers.
-
Agree with Seedy here, the stickers on the website are purely a animated design I have one here and the stickers are top quality stickers finished well in chrome, following on from a previous design which were also top quality.
-
can you stick some decent pics up of the actual stickers bud.
-
Not the best but give a better idea, this is a custom CF with the tourist labels..

Not mad about the bottom sticker on the back, bit too much, apart from that like the curves and colours!
-
Seen them in the flesh and really like them, look classy.
-
There are much worse stickers about, if anything these are really trendy.
-
Rich, my opinion on them was a an after thought. Came across them as we order our clubwear through a CF club shop, and as I hadn't seen them before, so I thought I'd post.
I was more trying to start a thread about new stickers, as oppose to my view on them.
Having seen Outlaw's pics I agree with Sam on this one. The back is just a bit too busy for my liking, but take off the bottom sticker and it would soon put that right.
-
I think what you said was spot on to be honest Johnny - this is the whole point of the forum isnt it - to express views whether they be positive or negative, as long as you can back up your thoughts then i see no problem - i do agree with what Rich says, that he makes quality bats and the stickers shouldnt detract from that fact......but if the stickers divide opinion then obviosuly it's worth talking about?
-
No doubt SS, I wouldn't let the stickers put me off buying one, and as my club get a discount I'd look at buying one in the future (not that I'm in the market for a new bat at the mo :( )
I hope at no point anyone thinks I judge a bat's merit on its cosmetics. That said, my ultimate bat would not only perform extremely well but would look damn sexy too!
-
charlie french bats have some of the best grain structure i have ever seen, up there with the likes of warsop and redback

Surely that's more to do with his willow supply as opposed to his batmaking? How much choice would he get from a merchant? Or would he just order willow of a specific grade and get what he's given
-
not suggesting its anything to do with his craftsmanship, altough you cant knock that either. but he seems to find a way to consistantly get the best willow!
-
the stickers look loads better in person. 2 of the lads we played againest today had them. looked goood
-
I think they are quite nice personally, far worse out there than these....
