SG test pads
« on: October 24, 2014, 02:27:46 PM »

As some of you may know, I have been a kookaburra pad man for around 5 seasons, last season I used some B3 ones, but I just couldn't get used to them all be it they are an unreal set of pads. I was thinking about ordering a couple of sets of gloves from online stockist, so thought I may as well get a full set!
These are extremely well made, and obviously bare huge likeness to my kookaburra pads. Very comfy, padded straps, very good protection from whacking myself with a mallet. All for £22 plus the divided postage. Can't wait to get them in the nets and wear them in for net season! I am extremely happy, and only wish I'd bought another pair for when these give up the battle!

how much do they weigh mate and how does the protection compare with your B3s.

Nice looking pads, not my colour, but look good.

As a fellow Kook softs aficionado, it would be interesting to hear how these feel...

Lighter than my B3's but I haven't weighed them.

The feel extremely comfortable, and mold the leg really well from the off I will update when I've worn them a lot more!

They are exactly the same size as my kookaburra pads. Which are normal mens just for clarification!

Thomas these are beautiful pads, I'd even go as far as to say they fall into the pornographic category!!

I came across the SG Test pads when I was in India on business last year. Would have definitely got a set, but they didn't have a right handed set.
I went with the Supalite pads from that trip. I was slightly disappointed with the protection quality, but the build quality was really good.

You shouldn't be disappointed.
