Anyone else noticed Butler keeping in a Shrey helmet??
Didn't see him bat so dunno if he wore it then too

[TangoWhiskey]

He's also using GN Wk innners. I'd assume he is using Shrey as it looks like it's a WK helmet no?

It has a thicker peak than a standard shrey. Could be many reasons.


I'm gonna go with.


Masuri is far far to heavy to keep in, so he got a shrey.

He usually bats in a masuri

Jos Butler is now using Shrey Helmets, probably the new fixed grill one with improved peak, these were on show a couple of weeks ago across the road from the Lords show! very light around 750 grams!

I could swear he batted in a Masuri in that game though

Shrey posted what looked like a photo shopped photo of Jos Butler wearing one a few days ago

Looks the style peak on the Gray Nics lids

It could be specialised wicketkeeping helmet...

The guys from Its Just Cricket did a review of a specialised Masuri wicketkeeping helmet a few months ago.

Maybe Shrey have done a copy of that. That would explain the shorter and thicker peak anyway.

Buttler uses a Shrey wicket keeping helmet - practically identical in design to the discontinued Masuri wicket keeping helmet - shorter peak (for a less interrupted view when looking upwards when a ball is top edged skyward) and a small portion of the back above the neck cut out (to avoid the back rubbing/hitting the neck when crouched in keeping position). Shrey have made very similar copies of other models like the Masuri fielding helmet as well.

He does bat in a Masuri Vision Elite for England.

On a side note, he seems to have stuck with the 2013 Masuri lid with Elite grill when batting for Lancashire - seems odd considering the new Vision series lid have been used and are available by e.g. Ashwell Prince, which seems to indicate he prefers the old style for county level.
