I don't know about full length but I have the GM padded bat covers where they are half length and have zips - they are extremely good quality!

GM do a full length one I think (and their blade only ones are quality).
Kookaburra do a decent one.

You could drop Wilkie a PM, can't beat a decent Soft Pocket for style

Get a couple of soft pockets and a padded cover. I normally double layer it, as I don't feel padded covers quite cover all damage, so the soft pocket just adds that extra little bit of protection. I think the best full length padded cover I've held is a Hammer one. You could ask Paul how he feels the H4L ones compare to them! Make sure you get the best one, don't want you getting that CA damaged. ;)

A blade only soft pocked with a full length one on top works well too.
Double wrapped wood has extra protection after all!

Double bagging of your bat...... interesting

Aedos that used to be a sponsor on here do a top quality fully padded bat cover for £10. I've never seen a better bat cover to be honest.
