Hello,
I saw a topic on them in 'for sale' other day and wondered about them. Who makes them? Where they are made? Prices? etc?
Cheers

Spyder bats are based in staffordshire and run by Gary, they are a cricket retail company who also sponsor several county pros.
Not sure who makes them or the prices as such as I had an email from Gary some time ago about stocking our helmets in his store.
-
The Spyder bats used by some County players seem to go very well too!
It's a brand I haven't tried, but would be interested to see how they go! 8)
-
RNS Larsons make them.
-
A couple of lads at my club have them, they seem to love them. I've tapped them up with a ball. Good rebound and good pick up. I noticed they only have 2 rubber inserts in the handle
-
i live right by them, get most of my stuff from spyder, excellent stuff you never get a bad bat from gary, he will always sort you out a good deal :)
-
So Spyder dont make their own bats then they are imported?
-
Possibly the only brand you haven't tried Pete?

pro'd for a few clubs my way, Albie Morkel also has a fair bit of spyder gear
-
Spyder Bats are awesome i have the top of the range one for £160! (Bargain) And it goes like S!!T off a shovel!
-
got any pics of yours jacko?
remind me who'd u play for again

I have just noticed that Spyder have lost the two Irish sponsored batmen-Kevin O'Brien and Paul Stirling.
Both batsmen have been snapped up by SS. That is a big loss to a small company going into a world cup
-
Some brands have signed up players/teams for the world cup only and they are free to use whoever there after
-
Oh i didnt know that. It makes sense know because a good few of the Irish players have moved sponsors to SS and SF

They have been given kit on arrival in India as tom has said suit the player

Any news on Spyder chaps? The website has been under construction for a while
-
My kit is all spyder gear, bat is around 2,10 and goes like a gun! pads and gloves are also very comfortable and similar to the stuff you get from the big brands, if i'm not mistaken he's also offering custom pads and gloves!
-
Does anyone know the guy and if they are releasing a 2013 range?

A guy I played with last year is mates with the guy from Spyder, I'll drop him a text and find out for you mate
-
Cheers mate, at least most people know how to reply on a forum when asking questions.
Just wanted to see their range as heard good things, lad I played indoor the other week was all Spyder and looked really good kit
-
Mate have a look on Facebook
Either put in Spyderbats or Gary stanier shows new range bud
-
Not on facebook anymore Dave, can't be doing with looking at vintage style photos of my friends dinner every day, but thanks mate!
A bit of detective work on Twitter done and I found some photos I think. Would be interested to see his keeping range, as this lad was a keeper and his gloves looked rather smart.

They are awesome bats and their softs are decent as well, saw one of Dhoni's bats today it was unreal! I have a custom M&H, this spyder was half the price and hate to say it but a better pick up and piece of willow.
-
Gotta go see them Tuesday mate.
Welcome to the forum as well. Hope your wallet is still in good shape ;)
-
Shop is open! we'll pop in on the way back from knutsford. Will see if I can get a picture of the Dhoni bat over the weekend.
