Hi al, my apologies time is whizzing and the updates are not as frequent as intended.
Firstly, I am expecting amended samples this current week, if there is any delay I will post sketches of the product as would love to hear your thoughts !
Secondly, I'll leave Paul at It's Just Cricket to announce properly but the Platinum Lounge will be working on some exclusive product. I'll let you pester him for that
The main hint I can drop now is on the batting pads, this is a ode to the past, these will be "skeleton" pads as per over 100 years ago but made out of modern premium materials, using quality suedes and heavy PU's. The design is so simple yet brilliantly effective. I can't wait to see peoples faces when, firstly they see the images, but then, secondly actually have a go with a mallet and wear them for an hour or so in nets. You will never have felt such a comfy fit, no excess heat, no sweaty legs, if theres any wind you will actually feel the wind on your legs behind the pads.
Gloves work on a different principle and the main feature will stay a secret until the images, but these are my personal nod to the 90's from a styling pov, plus the mallet test video is unbelievable, I'll post a teaser video on youtube this weekend without showing the glove entirely but showing how it works )
Hope this has been useful, guys thank you again for the continual enthusiasm I won't let you down !!
