Might not be a question for the forum, but are adidas investing in Ayrtek given the removal of the Ayrtek brand from general sale?

So with the top of the range helmet having the ACIS are Adidas looking to drop the prices of some versions of the helmet and just have a standard padded interior as it were?

The new AdiPower range will be "powered by Ayrtek" so rest assured we have put a lot of hard work into ensuring the quality we would like to think we produce and design that is still present across the entire range.

We hope this opportunity presents further options to work with them on other sports/products as well looking beyond the cricket market.

From Tom-Tek to Tom-idas. Their kit can only get better if they have you onboard lad.

I hope you do get to work on future products/other sports. You deserve it.



As you no longer do softs or bats(which made this announcement a tad obvious) does that mean we will no longer see you as a forum sponsor?
If so hope you stay on as a member.

Jake

Adidas have a new distributor based in the UK who have taken over the softs/bats/shoe sales and they are a top bunch of lads having met them. Im sure they will be looking at speaking to such retailers as yourselves to get things organised in regards to stocking the kit.

Congrats, Tom! Looks very exciting indeed! Good to see your hard work has paid off!  :)

Regarding the Adidas distributor you mentioned, will they be at the Lord's show? We don't have £25K to spend on any brand, but hopefully they won't care now?

Which Ayrtek helmet is the Rawtek the same as? Or are there differences? Other than the adidas stickers of course.

The AdiPower RawTek will be superseding the Ayrtek Raw helmet.

That's really good news.  We want to stock Adidas shoes too.  Hopefully your involvement and influence will make them a more personable and approachable brand that's more small retailer friendly! Sounds like everyone's a winner!  :) Once again, congratulations! Looks forward to seeing you at the show!

So now you can tell us what everyone has wanted to now since Adidas was first released..

Is it pronounced Ad/I/das or is it Ad/e/das :D

Tom took a trip down to the crossroads and down there he met a man by the name of Robert Johnson ;)

Seriously well done Tom from the first time I seen your ground breaking helmets I knew they would take off globally

The 19th Sept would be the cut off as we wont be selling anything from our website so you would either need to hope a retailer has one in stock in the Ayrtek format or order before the 19th.
