« on: November 13, 2012, 06:00:44 PM »

Looking for a new pair of pads as mine are very worn out, what are the current lightest pads on the market?

Not sure why they have discontinued but Morrants International style wicket-keeping pads would be lightest.

I would assume they would be filthy after a couple of games?

They did keeper pads in that style?

Yes have a feeling. Moin Khan may have used them at some point.  Gap in the market?

I use puma iridium fxt 4000 from a few seasons ago and they've lasted a while and are really light!

I've not got the Newbery pads that go under the trousers. These are by far the lightest pads but depends if you fancy having pads that go under your trousers. I love mine

How about we do a topic on lightest wk pads. Anyone who has a pair of mens sized pads could add to it. There was one done for batting pads
