I will tell you one thing there the lightest traditional pad i have tried on..

I will try to sort it out Colesy...

Wanted a good luck at the limited edition le small mens they had none mate but the full mens were massive

Funny it like going full circle i did not like big brand stuff but hey ho

[Colesy]

I know that they're made of foam and not cane which I why I ask.

If I could pick any pads other than Morrant then these would be the ones I would get. They look very nice.

All i need now is Instinct to release his they look very nice indeed

Tell me about it

Dave, would it be possible to weigh each pad and then tell us?

Think there should be a seperate pad thread where everyone posts the model and weight of their pad. Will greatly assist the internet shopper like myself.

my advice mate is DO NOT BUY PADS FROM THE INTERNET unless you have tried them on yourself

maybe i need to follow my own advice and save some money

Or maybe we should be less fuss :Dy

So whats happened to the home made pads then Dave!!!?

[procricket]

well they were never home made perry i was trying to sort out the back of the pads on a pair of lavers mate but was in truth not happy about the shape of the front as the top hat was set too far back and in my mind would never have been right


maybe we should be less fussy Pacman mate but i guess it goes with the terrotory i have said it before and said it again i like my softs more than i like bats...and more fussy about them.

When or if i ever get a chance to work full time in the industry i will make sure i endeavour to make sure whoever comes for there kit is sorted out properly as i find a major flaw in equipment (all) is the size margins and so many people not using the correct kit mainly juniors due many reason monitery or peer pressure.. 

I think Gm do a lot with there size charting bats and such but more in my eyes needs to be done..

And although i know it was to0ngue in cheek mate but why not be as fussy would you wear a ill fitted helmet.

Fair comments Dave and i personally find most pads way to bulky especisally for my short little legs and the GM mens full size yeah you can get lost in them as with most brands if you are 5.9 and under. Only problem is if you are a guy and have muscular chunky legs the straps on youth pads are normally way too small or tight when on. And dont get going on helmets. The most comfortable i ever liked is a puma though i have yet to try an ayrtek!!!
