I have Ayrtek softs and they a excellent. I hate stiff gloves, and Tom's design allows for great flexibility, which in turn allows you to boff the ball harder.

They are perfect for proper batsmen, such as myself.

Thanks for all the comments, folks, I'm sneaking towards the Ayrtek now...will check out the forum offers.

Roco...one comment I didn't understand was your wish for Tom to do pads in 'OSM', is this a size?

He's not a lad - he's a freak of nature who lives in the woods, only coming out to knock off a quick 50, or to be photographed by American tourists!

Here he is shadow-batting, practising his forward defensive!

I reckon it's more personal preference though, cos I'm 6'5" and use regular mens pads, and think they are fine!

Yeah but I bet there is a gap between the top of pad and thigh guard which there should not be

So a choice of bigger thigh guards which I have or bigger pads

No because I wear my thigh guards lower and use the hip protector of my aeros as extra thigh protection (I run and hide from anything short anyway lol)
