Probably a controversial or unpopular opinion, but I prefer the stickers from the season just gone to the new ones.

The assegi 5 star looks lovely. Will you be sticking these jake?

Absolutely, we'll be stocking the full range. In the past few weeks I have been trialling the wicket keeping gear for next year too, very nice.

Hi Jake,

Sorry to say I am not keen on the 2015 stickers. However the performance and value for money of B&S bats are simply awesome.
Quite exciting to see the new profiles but would like to see a minimal sticker option for the higher grades show the quality of willow. Is engraving still an option? I seem to remember this was discussed on a thread earlier in the year.

All opinions good or bad are most welcome where possible we try to please as many people as possible we also hope to learn through all good and bad comments

Sticker wise, I'm personally really liking the Assegai, but find the Impi a bit busy and the Zulu figure a little undefined. Overall IMO they're a big improvement on last seasons designs.

My only small gripe is the toe stickers, which feels a bit repetitive.

The profile of the Impi is also my favourite.

Well done guys

At the end of the day engraving costs were too high so no no engraving for 2015 the front stickers compared to most brands this year are quite small so you do get to see a very full sticker free blade which I agree does make a bat look good at your request B&S or Vitas will sticker your bat any which way you desire

Hats off Gary impressive stuff - both profiles look spot on and will be great to see in the flesh. Personally I'd go minus a couple of the stickers for a more minamilist look but everyone's different. I think the key is to make the branding standout from others out there.

Could I enquire a little on the profiles please - the Assegai with the more fuller profile for the batsmen among us who need a big sweet spot how does it compare to this years LE ST profile? Cheers!

I have to say I am a real fan of this years branding - it is a step forwards. What will the weight ranges be of the bats and how do they pick up?

I think last year's Scorch was/is my favourite stickering and branding.

However, as soon as I can pretend my current bat has gone, I'll still be getting a B&S.

Hi Shane, engraving was looked at, deemed expensive though. We may do it for some one offs/specials. And of course if anyone wants to pay a little extra to have a B&S with the engraving we can of course look at it.

Particularly like the Assegai 5* stickers, stands out nicely without being too loud. Shapes for the higher end ones look great also, why the change of shape for the 3 star bat?

Probably to keep the weight down, especially for denser clefts. Most popular bat weights are between 2.7 to 2.9, so makes sense!


As usual, the shapes are amazing, and a bat under 100 notes? Great value for money! I am not quite such a fan of the stickers though, the Assegai is okay, but not such a fan of the Impi stickers. I quite like the colour of the Impi though, would have been a nice colour to add to the same style as last year's stickers imo! Also, didn't realise how much I liked the Scorch stickers until I saw them again the other night!

Sticker wise, I'd probably have to say I prefer last years ones, but I really like the traditional look of these. Also I thinks its refreshing to see a bat without stickers plastered all over the edges! Keep them clean!!

I will repeat what lot of ppl have already said here, I think last year stickers looked much better.  This sticker don't look very professional..to be very honest.

As mentioned earlier some people will like the new stickers some won't professionally  B&S  make sure all there products meet a high standard which we feel has been achieved for 2015 we do realise that's it's not everyone's cup of tea
