Ive started already
I've got GN oblivion test pads
I've got GN oblivion E41 5* gloves
I have a blank bat (which may end up with some awful GN eBay stickers on)

I have a Masuri and stem guard on order from Jake

I fancy a pair of prestige gloves and maybe a GN bat (undecided between the classic or the 500)

Red Ink bag duffle is staying
Aero strippers are staying
Not sure on shoes - either Nike or Asics I already have will stay
My box is staying!

Hated using my Adidas Sl22's so batted for half a season with non spiked trainers, felt much more comfy. Undecided to get them spiked or leave them as they are. I would love a pair of purple puma's if they are cheap.

What's wrong with the SL22's? I was thinking of getting these for next season.

I'm really happy with my H4L softs I've used this season and most of my gear is in good nick, could always be tempted by another bat though!

They are the blue ones with the strap across from 3 or 4 years ago. They didn't feel comfortable, too narrow and lacked support at the heel. The newer versions may be better.

Ok thanks. I had some expensive adidas football boots and they were very narrow too, so I'll try some on before I risk ordering some.

the perils of speed reading - I thought that read 'I would love a pair of purple plums'...  :-[

Been there - got those!  :D

I'm thinking of a new pair of trousers a couple of small accessories from gray nics. Possibly a pair of gloves to match my bat but pretty happy with what I have.

Super tempted by the new puma spikes in lava and white and also the opposite colour scheme. Just not sure I'll bring my self to spend £150 on two pairs of boots when my are almost new

Although I'm sure I'll but some bargains

Since discovering CBF I have been buying too much kit.
I already have new boots, a new bat and a new pair of gloves all box fresh ready for next year.
I've also just bought an old school coffin that's not arrived yet
I had my B3 serviced and I'll refurbish the other B3 match bat at the end of season.
I think I'll buy a new pair of SS pads and maybe another SS bat as well, might also be tempted to buy a new thigh pad if I'm feeling flush.
My wife said I could have a bowling machine for the back garden too, not sure if that's a bit over the top though.......

If you can have a bowling machine for the back garden that includes the net. Good god man, what a great wife!

Got another Kookaburra Kahuna 350 and a GM Aura 404 for next season in a sale from the store I bought my other Kahuna 350 from at the begining of this season. Also got a pair of Addidas Adipower Vector spikes from the same place for next season. Bought two Kookaburra Pro 800 bat covers for my Kahuna 350s and a GM padded bat cover for the Aura. I'm also going to get my old GN Powerbow 3 star refurbed by a local bat repair guy once he gets back off holiday, the intention being to carry on using it as my wet weather/early season bat.
Pics will be provided once my first Kahuna 350 and my GN have been refurbed.

I'll be needing new pads and gloves next season so chances are i'll be getting next year's GM pads and gloves, I have no money left in the budget for this year thanks to heritage railways and their need for toolsets in a million different measurement standards. Hopefully they'll last as long as my current set of GM gear (6 years of net and match usage with only dirt and general wear and tear on them). I might pick up a Millichamp and Hall bat on the "only used it once" market if my budget allows, purely because I have a Millichamp and Hall bat cover with no M&H bat, which is really begining to get on my nerves as I have matching bat covers for all but my GN (currently in the M&H cover).

I am in the market for a new pair of gloves and possibly a helmet (Shrey) as well as a Red Ink Custom and some keeping gloves , possibly M&H , depending on price. I also have got some Salix Pod One pads from Pro direct cricket for 70 off rrp which is hopefully a good deal. Also maybe some Asics spikes depending on the new range as i have used normal trainers for the last few years of my cricket.

So far just bought a new bat, I've been v fortunate that my last one has lasted an age, but it's finally time to invest in a new one I think, punted for an SS Maximus

Reckon il need a new helmet, pads and spikes as well

We've got a spare net down the club, I think I could adapt that into a temporary one like you use before a game on the pitch.
That was the wife's idea too when I took her to Trent Bridge.
