Went for a little trip to the local cricket shop to buy some pads and after a fair bit of time in the shop talking to the owner about bats and players I went with there new pro pads which I am very happy with they are light with huge amounts of padding which I always look for in protection
The pads include a removable inner to be used as close fielding pads and all at a good price
IF you are in the area I would defiantly pop in as there bats are very nice but as any good business man he would not revile who is bat maker is
The bats are very good for £100 and £150 nice big bats with good grains, the gloves where very good (tempted me a bit
) they have just brought in a helmet which was very Sachin and for £30 you can not go wrong, it was light and well made
The shop had a nice little voucher in the local paper which was a nice touch when it came to paying
The pads where £50 without the voucher and also got a Puma Calibre thigh pad which was not pad for the price
Could have brought a few bats but I restrained myself
Overall it was a nice trip got what I wanted and may have something special in the pipeline
