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!
