Title: Sizing and custom aeros
Post by: ProWannabe88 on October 29, 2010, 08:05:50 AM
Right guys. Ive Just been looking on the website for some P1 strippers but the sizing chart won't load. Grrrr. Anyone similar size to me have a set in med or small and can you comment on the fit please. I'm 5.8 and 11.5 stone. Don't have massive legs or hips either. Just don't want them to be hanging off me and all thigh pads I seem to buy are just that little bit too big. Also saw you can custom make aero gear now but websites not finished for this section. Anyone heard of the options and prices etc. Can you have your Name on gear or have a different colour. Would love to be able to order some strippers in a different colour scheme to the White and blue if this was possible

the aeros are totally adjustable so if they hang off you you haven't got them on right!! The sizes are more to see how much padding you need. I would go for Medium in your case.

No idea about the custom stuff Philip@aero is your man to PM!

Well I've always had trouble with thigh guard fitments so decided to look at some measured up. Remfry are crazy expensive and the aeros just looked odd when I first saw them. They are growing on me and hear nothing but positive reviews. A few people have mentioned taking the hip pad out Tom, is it a pain?? I may have to look at yours when we come down  :D

just a bit of snipping...they have re-developed it by the looks of things in the v6 version as mine are an older set.

yeh feel free to have a look, i have/had before it was "borrowed" a Ace thigh pad as well which are probably the bridge product between the strippers and remfry products.

Ah right. Will have to investigate then before investing. I can see that hip protector getting on my nerves though.

The sizing is a bit complicated with them - Philip@Aero on here sent me a PM about it, so you could always PM him about sizings. But all I've heard too is that they are top quality protection (though what you said about the hip pad, I've heard too prowannabe)

The hip protector does stick out and can look silly at times however id rather that than take one on the hip any day

Simmy how many times have you been tagged when batting. Then moaned about a bruise or the impact. If you were 'so macho' (he likes that song) you'd not moan as much. Get a thigh pad and shut mouth  :D

I still play the odd game and all this protective gear is not required ( same as for the past 20 years).

I just pad up with gloves and a single bat and that does us as a team well right.
