Although the pads look unusual, when they are worn you will only see the whites of your trousers in the gaps.

What will be the finished weight of the pads

[smilley792]

If you have mucky or blood stained trousers, you will see that to.
Could pull your socks up high to show em off.....



Waiting on more pics of gloves, as long as no stupid buckles on wrist straps I'll probably have a pair of them and a box.



To George, your kit is always of the highest quality, and the protection is unparalleled, I just really really hope in the near future that this quality and level of protection also comes in a more modern looking range along side these.
Both to please more people, and to hopefully make you a lot more money.

Goodluck

The pads are along with some other stuff on here open opportunities for sledging, I would personally love that, and had it not been for my xxx customs, I would buy them. If looks disrupt you from quality, put on some clads..

Very Diffrent Mr Stretton instead of the Slits in the pads I can se our B&S logo there 😝 Good to chat today looking forward to seeing the Stripper option you have to offer us

[ItsJustCricket]

Haha B and S - hands off - they're all ours!

Unless I'm misled, I think the Flagship Coffin, the pads, the gloves, and the shoe protectors are all EXCLUSIVE TO IJC!

Paul does love an exclusive, but I think he's really struck gold on this one!

Concentrate on your game and stop worrying about what people think. "Mummy those men said mean things about my pads, tell them off pwease"

It's what I hate about cricket, the inability to move for word or think out the box, as everyone is scared of someone saying something.


The only thing putting me off pads is the buckles, I waited years as a youth to be able to afford Velcro, I'm not going back!



As for the exclusiveness, it's all abit (No Swearing Please) ain't it. Why limit to one seller? One place? Shooting yourself in the foot just like new balance did with the blue and yellow gear.

Those gloves are absolutely exquisite. Simply superb.

I appreciate the idea behind the pads but can't see myself strapping a pair on for game day. I could see them however, on display in the mancave, part art/retro design displayed to encourage conversation.
Innovation and brands wandering off in a different direction is great.

The buckles are what puts me off.
Gone are the days of having your pads either flap around or cut off the circulation to your legs.
Maybe those tan leather velcro straps lile M&H used to do would be a better option?
Just my 2p worth on those

 Now lets get some proper pictures of the brain protion and the toe protector!

In regards to the looks, George, when we chatted yesterday, acknowledged that a more "performance" version of these pads would no doubt sell better. If he made it with a velcro strap, made with say white mesh instead of full on gaps in the pads,  he could make them look similar to modern pads, and therefore more suitable for a lot of people. However, George isn't trying to take over the world, and he wanted to go all out on the vintage, old-school look, and he knows it might polarise opinion! It also means the leather and brass makes it a little heavier than it needs to be, but there may be scope for the "performance" version sometime in the future which would combine the best aspects.

The shoe protection is literally just a shoe insole! Looks like an orthotic!

You say that, but to anyone who didn't attend the event there's no proof it even exists
