Ive recently lost my trusty old thigh pad, i cannot think for the life of me where i left it.
So im undecided whether or not to invest in some strippers, or just get another thigh pad.
So I'd like peoples opinions on which they use and think is best please :)

Johnny, Hows the fitting of the strippers?? I've got short legs, and normally have to trim down the thigh pads to fit.
I missed out on the pair someone was selling on here for cheap, so i wouldnt have felt so bad about trimming them down if needed. It would be agony doing it to a new set

Nick, Yeah those kinda strippers are awesome too!

I like the strippers thigh pads too lol. They do them in different sizes, as well as youth, so you should find a set to suit. Get them right and they fit beautifully. One of the best investments I've made in cricket kit.

Haha, yeah they look smart! Yeah ive been looking at the sizes etc too! Seeing the cost of ordinary thigh pads now a days i think ill be siding with the strippers, for an extra tenner it looks well worth it!

I use the hawk thigh set and is the best I've used strippers included as did not like the fit as the inner thigh was always slipping

remfry are the best by a distance but the ace feet in motion are not bad but the addidas ones are the best pound for pound

I have the strippers and like them a lot, my mate has them too and another mate is getting them they are very very good in my opinion. Prefer them to the one thigh pad but that is just my opinion. It's good to have everything in one unit I think...
Btw if you want Large P1s my mate has some he's looking to get rid of.. :)

They're sized Large, just got to remind you of that.
I can give you a good price, just give me a rough idea (bear in mind postage costs though...).
Do feel free to PM me :)
