I wouldn't recommend Shark from what I've heard, I know of a couple of pro's who got sponsored by Shark at beginning of the year got given the kit, and returned it before the end of season as they didn't rate it! I've got a bit of Hawk gear here at the minute, some new pads and gloves in plain white designs similar to Newbery, seem quite nice, the bats are pretty good too.

Itias make by far the best softs there are going

Nah really, there's plenty of companies. Duck & Run, Fusion, Redback, CJI, Nixon

one of my friends has got hawk kit says it is really nice, bat is good pick up as well. One of my mates got offered 40% by shark.... Duck and run gear looks nice but apparently isnt greatly rated. Hawk seems expensive as well

My club has a deal with CF - good bats, but the softs aren't great, and are a bit garish.

I thought Itias had jacked-in? I know Tom did have some left over stock that he was selling cheap.

I have Fusion pads at the moment that are really good, but they're a few seasons old and they don't do the same model any more.

Personally, I'm now completely bought into the custom bats from small brands idea, but in terms of softs I've tended to go with bigger brands as I can go to a shop and try them on, see how they feel (my fusion pads are the exception, but I did get given them for free! )

The club i played at for the last two seasons, the chairman was Charlie French so everyone seemed to have full CF kit bar me!, i rate his bats but i was also not much of a fan of the softs.

[tommo256]

I dont like the look of either personally, will probably stick to my guns and go for H4L

Im in love with the dukes gear since seeing it on the morrant website - Classic looks, modern materials and the price! -absolutely perfect. Going there tomorrow to get everything from batting gear to wk equipment and even the clothing! wish me luck

[tommo256]

I dont like the dukes stuff, personally think it looks a bit out of sorts. I dunno as there is much coice out there
