Which way round do you wear your pads?

Now then, now then, now then!
It's been touched on a couple of times, but it's time we had a poll on this to answer the question once and for all!

Which way round do you wear your pads?
The plastic buckle on the inside, or the outside?

Knew this was coming lol! Outside as to me it looks better, and my last set of pads (kookaburra) said you should wear them that way round on the packaging, as the lead leg had an extra cane for added protection.

It's been discussed before and keeps coming up, so the forum needs a poll so we know how many people wear their pads correctly (buckle on the inside!) and how many people wear them wrong!

They are only batting pads!

The real question is, however...


Which is the correct way to wear one's wicket keeping pads?

By leaving them in your bag and letting some other numpty do that job instead.

Brand dependent! My kooks have an extra cane on the front leg meaning- buckles out, straps in. Others i've owned its the opposite.

I have checked and looks like Joe Root wears his with buckles on the outside, so think that settles any debate on the matter 😉
