9 cane batting pads
« on: February 21, 2016, 03:14:56 PM »
Going on something Buzz said yesterday, which got me wondering.

What brand of pads have 9 canes in? The majority only seem to have 7 compared to the older GMs which have 9 and the front leg Kooks....

I asked this a while ago after wanting new pads. I think only M&H had 9 canes - most had 7 or 7 1/2 like the Legends where the last cane goes half way down the shin like a wider wing.

Yeah the millichamp pads have 9 but they are not cane and the protection is shocking for a £100 + pair of pads
