well i'm not very good so maybe they arent for me after all!
I've just Re-read what i put and its probably a bit harsh (it didnt help the bloke who wore them when i played was an idiot regardless of his footwear so that probably influenced my opinion of them), i didnt want to put you off too much but i wanted to make you aware what some people would think.
If you play a decent standard of league cricket against some very good players then id still probably advise against it, its going to be more hassle then its worth. If you play a bit of freindly village stuff then go for it, its a bit different, youll get a bit of stick but its all a bit of a laugh.
As i said, as a pair of boots they are very very comfortable and light.
