Here is an example guys, they also make running shoes with spikes and they are also pretty cost effective.

For that kind of a price, shoes better be doing all the running too.  :D

Agree with this, I'll be telling people to do the same. Rip off

Top end football boots now retail at £240, so £180 for a cricket shoe seems logical when the batsmen / fielder could be on his feet all day.

I'm sorry I just don't agree. Why should something be X amount if comparable with a much more popular sport that isn't drastically declining. Even though top end football boots are X, each brand has far more price points than cricket brands and feet on the ground. I may well be wrong, but it seems like profiteering at best.

What shape do we think the Insignia will be...? Here's hoping!







Nike, Adidas and New Balance all have exclusively red colour schemes across their shoe ranges.

I haven't taken many photos as we were so busy all day. Great show.

It's be interesting to know if cricket kit sales are (overall) in decline etc.. Baring in mind the numbers playing the game are dropping.

shame there aren't more pictures of the M and H bats. I really liked the new branding. (not that I was there if course)

i was in the m&h shop today talking to Rob i think. he was saying how the ck22 has been by far their best seller this season. i had also heard they were changing their styling but didnt seen any evidence of it.

i did see what an oversize cleft is like compared to a normal cleft. the ck22 was twice the size and 4 oz lighter just ridiculous

That hunts shape!! and the faux warning sticker on the back! Love it, looks like the warnings you get on jets!

This is the kind of different shape that I think is missing from a lot of the really big names ranges! They all seem very conservative, not a criticism because no doubt they will do like a train. But it is nice to see something a bit different!

Guys, as many of you know, we have posted quite a few photos on our Twitter and Instagram, with more to follow tomorrow...

M&H and Kookaburra didn't allow us to post photos, but if anyone has any queries about their respective new ranges, I will reveal all I can via PM/email.

Someone was asking about Affinity, but no news there as they weren't exhibiting! Ditto Willostix and H4L...

Oh that Hunts Insignia is one serious piece of batting nostalgia. Superb!

Really hope it has small edges and zero concaving like the original.

Someone in our club still uses the original. Gorgeous shape.

I had a reflex mid '90s and it had a similar toe but the spine had quite a sharp peak. That made the duck bill toe a bit more pronounced
