It's all very generic so commenting on quality is a waste of time....if they're good enough for a hundred other manufacturers then I'm sure they're good enough for Blueroom! I like the colours though, Blueroom never go over the top and they haven't this time. Nice looking gear that I'm sure is great quality. I have seen it all before though......nothing new but a good solid effort that deserves to have a lot of fans.

The base design of both the gloves and pads have been left for that exact reason. The quality, fit and comfort is outstanding. so why risk altering it if its already a winner?? Just good to freshen things up image wise with a few alterations in places, and of course a change in colour.

There has been whispers about RPC softs coming to the fold, those i expect would be incredible considering the bat labels that were produced. They were extremely popular on release last year so any matching softs would probably make a tasy alternative for anyone wanting something really special :)

Very nice work mate. The blue IMO is the better option but the pink is quite subtle so I think will appeal to certain players. Pads are very traditional which looking at all the retro models coming back in for 2013 is what players are asking for. I think you have got very good softs for next year, traditional and classic with what looks like good quality gear. Looking foward to seeing the rest and the bats as heard very good things about company since being on forum.

last years pink gear was the more popular in the shop, but i agree with the blue being the nicer this time around. The softs altogether look a little more... upmarket in a way with the yellow and dark slate departing.

Just waiting on Simon or Rob to whip anymore pics my way to show you guys, but as you can imagine theres only two bodies down there and they have a lot on at the minute (as per usual)  :) will get the bat stuff up the second i receive it.

Personally think it all looks good. Would maybe make a few slight changes to the gloves.

I would keep the top hand little finger side protection silver but change the bottom hand index finger side protection from silver to white.






great idea mate. I've sent you a pm.

do the gloves have the knots visible where they have tied down the fancy bits on the fingers?? All the top gloves do not have them visible all the amatuer versions have them visible. Once it goes you are knackered.

I'm not sure i understand what you mean?? visible knots? Do you mean the stitching on the glove, round the fingers etc or the actual panels on the fingers?? I've had 3 pairs of the gloves, granted last years design but its the same glove with regards to manufacturer, base design and quality of materials and I've never noticed any 'knots' or loose stitching, nor have i received any complaints or returns of that nature. The gloves and Pads are made to the standards of equipment you would buy off the shelf in any top end retailer. as a re the majority of other brands on here.

I couldn't say yes or no to that mate i'm afraid. I dont think they will be available to buy.... until more arrive or the design is finalised etc etc

Fair enough, I understand :(.

Having said that the gloves are impressive, I really like the look of them. The Salixishque design looks very good.

How is the fitting? Snuggy fit is best as that leaves little to no room for gloves to be twisted around.

I really like them and its not easy for me to like a particular gloves. Any idea when they would be available?

If you are allowed to sell the sample pair of pink ones then please let me know as I'd love to buy it..

theyre a very snug fit mate.Not as tight as SS etc which are super tight fit in Mens i think. ive had 3 sets of the gloves and love them. i have fat hands as well..... just dont bat with inners until theyre fully worn in... about 3-4 nets use i find, then its just perfect.

i will ask the pack man about selling any samples and will of course let you know. right now we are just establishing members views on both sets and prepping other areas for 2013.

Good looking kit and wouldn't have expected anything less of mr pack, my two penneth for what it's worth...
Has there been a pull away from the traditional yellow/blue for silver/black/blue?
I think both colour schemes look good but if the bats do feature yellow, it would be good to incorporate that into the gloves, however if not and its staying silver/black and blue as the photo shows, maybe having the second segment on the little finger black rather than silver, and having the 2nd and bottom segment of the index finger blue to tie it in with the rest of the glove, this would break it up quite nicely and look striking IMO. I also think spanky maybe onto something in terms of splitting up the side protection, maybe white on the pink design and black on the blue...

Agree with pedals about the gloves but the pads are slightly different than the Ss type cut point pads currently

I like the top hate and like,the styling of the pads

If we were to do an RPC set of softs then everything would be likely to change. More than likely sausage style gloves and a different classic style pad with the RPC colour scheme. I cant argue with pedals, the stuff is what we all see every year from other manufacturers but its that good a pad and glove its not surprising others use it.

And with regards to the yellow/slate accents as far as i know all labels are being re designed so the likely result will be to match the softs exactly, however they turn out. I think its a step in the right direction, a little more subtle but people like that nowadays. I know people were a big fan of the yellow so i doubt it will completely disappear

Can we have a time when the new range will be available in the shop to look at or buy? I'd also like the pink stuff to be kept and in the top of the range stuff as I'm not a fan of the yellow stuff. If all is good Rob will be taking about 1k of my hard earned money as Kookaburra just lost my custom.
