Lightest pads and gloves?
« on: March 13, 2014, 05:36:22 PM »

Been out the game for a while and looking to get some new kit (ordered an Aldred bat a few days ago so I'm partly there!). What are the lightest pads on the market/pads that are very light? Also, lightweight gloves - any advice? Thanks.

I agree about puma. I had the calibre 4000 range pads and gloves a few years back. It didn't feel like I was wearing pads they were that light.

Our VKS Superlite Legguards  at £36.99 are very light and offer excellent protection too. The matching gloves at 21.99 or the Ultra Series gloves at £31.99 would cater for your hands.

I've tried on those pads and gloves. I can confirm that the pads are extremely light, and both are damn comfy too!
