Title: LE World Cup Puma Equipment
Post by: mattw on February 23, 2011, 01:15:24 PM
Did anyone else see Swanny's spikes yesterday? They looked like Puma Calibre spikes, but instead of Yellow/White they had a lot of a blue on them much like the calibre bat colours.

Does anyone know if they'll be bringing these out? As I'm looking for some new spikes and I really like this colourway, much better than the yellow/white colourway of the current Calibre spikes.

Well that was lucky, on SSN a close up of Swanny dropping that catch came on... So here's a picture...

The puma calibre gear wasn't actually supposed to be released till march, so these could be a late addition?

I hope so, these really look a lot better than the current Calibre footwear that's available.

Rough idea of Price ?
Title: Re: Swannys Puma Spikes
Post by: ProWannabe88 on February 23, 2011, 10:22:01 PM
I'll make a list of people who may be after a pair. Price will be confirmed tomorrow along with amounts available to me. but a rough estimate would be Around the £70 mark but don't quote me on that. It could well be less. The calibre convertible aren't much over £50
Title: Re: Swannys Puma Spikes
Post by: Coach on February 23, 2011, 10:24:48 PM
I might be interested in two pairs of size 10 price dependant

Title: Re: Swannys Puma Spikes
Post by: mattw on February 23, 2011, 10:29:41 PM
Really interested! preferably an 8.5UK, but would take an 8 or 9 if they don't do half sizes.

I emailed Owzat yesterday querying about the World Cup edition gear and the reply I got was;

"The PUMA spikes are a limited edition and we will have these around the first week in April.
 
There is also a pad and glove Calibre limited edition out at the same time as the spikes. We should have both online around mid March.
"

Are Puma brining out Calibre 5000 keeping gear? Only found 4000 so far
Title: Re: Swannys Puma Spikes
Post by: ProWannabe88 on February 24, 2011, 03:00:45 PM
Puma are releasing the shoes to the 4 big contracts in the uk and the are only having limited quantities. Rob confirmed that and After I spoke with the contact i used before he basically got told to get stuffed when we asked for Pre release orders as they are only just available in india. Sorry guys. My suggestion would be pre-order and wait. That's what I'll be doing now

Fair enough, Cheers for trying!
Title: Re: Swannys Puma Spikes
Post by: ProWannabe88 on February 24, 2011, 03:10:42 PM
Sorry. Was told I may be able to get some sorted but not the case. Seriously though Pre-order where possible, it sounds like they are going to be sparsely available
Title: Re: Swannys Puma Spikes

These things are the called Calibre Tricks to differentiate from the normal Calibre convertible spikes.

Post by: mattw on February 25, 2011, 10:19:45 AM
Don't know... all that it describes it as on their website is - 'Limited release of next season's Calibre bat now in store.'

Just got a reply from Owzat regarding the LE gear. 'Sorry no pricing details yet on the LE shoes.We are expecting them around first week in April and will be available to buy instore or online after that date.'

'Revised profile to reduce weight - SHORT BLADE with 1 inch SHORTER THAN NORMAL BLADE' - According to Owzat

Calibres in the pack cave were normal sh with a huge low middle.

I think the profile of the tricks le bat is for to Aussies. I think it will be released as the new calibre for their next season. The England one will still have the low middle

I think it's got a shorter blade (the UK one)
