Introducing... The Platinum by Newbery
« on: July 07, 2015, 08:39:15 PM »

Guys,

As many of you will know, we have recently designed our very own exclusive bat in conjunction with Newbery. It has been specifically made to tie in with the launch of our Platinum Lounge, and as such it is called the Platinum by Newbery. It is a very, very top end bat, and many of you will know how fussy we are when we come to our bats! The Platinum is only available in SPS grade, and will retail for £319.99.


Now the important stuff - the shape! The bat is a mid-low middle, full profile bat with a duck-billed toe, meaning the pick up is like a dream. When we were picking them in Newbery today a member of the public picked up a 2'11 and thought it was a 2'8!

The decals have been designed to reflect both IJC (the front) and Newbery (the back) and are fully embossed and chromed, including full embossing on the side and the back!

Unusually for a Newbery bat they come with a free Newbery bat cover, and toe guards applied. They come in weights from 2'7 (fully dressed, no sheets on any) to 2'11 in this first batch, much lighter than we thought possible, and all with edges of 35-38mm!

We are honestly very proud of these, we're very lucky to do a job we love and be able to design a bat which has ended up looking and performing so well!

They are available now in SH and Harrow (£209.99), but overall wanted to share a bat we thought the forum would love!

Chris

We tried to keep it minimalist on the back! Both back stickers are fully embossed! Nice little touch on my own personal one as you can see!

Very reminiscent of some classic hunts shapes there. Looks very nice!

If someone wanted to buy one would they have to come to the Platinum lounge themselves making a more exclusive experience or are you selling this online as well?

No, these will be available online, as well as in the Lounge..

I see what you mean - it's the way the shadows are going! Or my terrible photography! Bang on centre on them all I can assure you!

Back stickers are perfectly centred as you can see - was just an illusion from the grains and shadows!
