They look good, what I like about the brand robert pack is that you seem to have your own certain indivduality about yourselves with your colour schemes, designs etc. Just joined the elite club as well ;)

The design looks very similar to the Vantage pads, like them both.

Is there a rating system for protection then? If so does anyone know what each level means?

think it goes something like club-county-test? ie provides adequate protection for club level - provides adequate protection for county level - provides adequate protection for test level.
i think thats the gist of it anyway :)

it will relate to the foams and plastics used within them i would think, club...county...test its usually ranked in.

obviously price goes up as level of protection increases as quality of the product rises.

no specific level to conform too as such though

very nice.  Personally I dont like 'tyre tread' style knee rolls. 

At the end of the day, all the pads seem to be variations on a couple of styles and aren't pads all made by the same few manufacturers anyway?

I stand corrected. I certainly wasn't saying the BR pads aren't top quality, clearly they are inkeeping with the brand. I thought I had read in another thread that most softs are made by a few manufacturers (to the brand specs) but thanks for clearing that up.
