Have you tried bending them more, my outer doesn't move without straps on.

Inner just needs some trial and error, but mines good now. Some have tried an ex strap to stop movement.

The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.

Got an x strap on the inner, mine do need bending but no yet found a perfect fit (fat thighs)

Also would have thought that the box would sit right if they were under batting shorts?

I just sent an email to Stretton the other day to order a thigh guard as my Aero P1s slip all the time. Hoping they will stay put, I have fairly large thighs too (hockey).

Guessing they are a bit busy as not heard back but not in a rush.

Heard back from George last night, he said they do have some pads left but they are also bringing out a new design for next season so I am going to wait and see what he has thought of now. He also mentioned he would be doing something for keepers which I am also very interested in.
