I've been looking at a post for quite a while that someone managed to pick up some custom made keeping pads in plain white and they looked awesome!
A guy named Tom sorted him and out and I messaged him ages ago and had no reply.
Does anybody know where or how I could get my hands on a pair of top quality keeping pads custom made?

Cheers

when u say custom pads do u just mean pads with no branding?

Doesn't have to be that way, normally will be if they are custom made.
But what I mean is to my exact dimensions, I want them to be as good fit as my gloves which are made by Geoff Wymer.
Had them for a while and they are beauts.
Cheers

i think u will strugle to get some custom design pads most companys want @ least 12 pairs of everything for them to make them unless u want to pay �200 for a pair of pads

Think the keeping pads your thinking about are a blank sample pair that Tom from TLB sold. They wasn't custom sized as fair as I remember.

Oh right!
I might have confused the two things!
I guess gloves are the only customs things made for keeping.
What's TLB?

Found TLB Cricket, no keeping pads on their site

you have little to no chance of doing this without ordering a fair few pairs or paying over the odds for them. only suppliers in indian or pakistan would be a possibility. even if you do manage to find a supplier who will make them to your size they will take an age to do it and you will certainly pay a decent amount. unfortunately nobody in the uk makes pads. i know a brand who were looking at a uk base for their soft goods and you were looking in the region of �180-�200 per pair which isnt worth it. best advice is save your money and use it to find a currently available set that suit you.

I guess I'll have to go round the local retailers, trying on pads.
Anyway, thanks a lot to everyone on this thread who helped out.

What dimensions are you after?

Tom · « **Reply #10 on:** November 23, 2012, 08:20:53 PM »

The ones I sorted a few years back I got made whilst hanging around a factory for a few months in India, unlikely I'll be able to get anymore at that kind of price. Sorry.

No problem Tom, I understand.

Can anybody give me the details of a decent factory that could probably make these pads please?
I might get 3 or 4 pairs (can never get enough kit aha) then probably sell a few on if there is a minimum order.
Would love a PM
Thanks

Have a look on alibaba.com, I imagine that's what everyone else does.
