nice kit, especially the all white gloves. Like the black and white colours as well and all looks great quality.

One trend i see in the cricket industry which i feel is a negative ........ I love all leather gloves ........... seems like they are a thing of the past :(

What do you mean by "all leather"? Are you talking about the padding being covered in leather instead of PU?

Just to clear.. Does the 'custom'  bat has a fixed shape or is it an option to get custom shape from Matt?  Sorry if missed any info stated on this earlier.

Matt has kept his cards close to his chest so far on that one, i'll know more tomorrow unless he spills the beans now. My take on it is a separate grade/model with its own identity and stickers, there will of course be the ability to customise the bat in the normal way if desired. H4L has such a loyal following amongst our customers that i have a chap who has purchased one based on this limited info, without really knowing what they are getting.

Hi All. Just responding to a few points...
All our bats are available with oval or round handles. Each bat is made to spec so you can choose your preference when you order.

The Custom has its own range (identity) and profile. Profile can also be custom to your requirements. The Custom range will be limited availability due to the select choice of willow and will be numbered. These will be the "cream of the crop" Pro grade and filtered by Matt based on performance.

More info coming soon with full launch before Christmas.

Thanks for all the kind comments on the kit. We've worked very hard this year on selecting the very best materials and keeping weights to a minimum. The pads especially are exceptionally light! We are finishing off the write ups and pics, and will launch very soon.

Hi Adam, will these be available in small men's? Or are the normal men's size actually wearable by normal sized people! I've been using GM's recently and their regular men's are gargantuan so I had to go a size under.

I found that GM were very generous with their sizing, so other brands "normal" sizes may fit you better than the GMs

GM did come up big in the last couple of years.

Yes there will be small and large mens. Do get your orders in if you want a pre-christmas delivery as we are having to order our softs in the next couple of days to get a small batch airlifted over in advance of the main drop in Jan/Feb

Just on my way home from H4L after a busy afternoon there picking out bats! The softs impressed me massively too, especially the Custom - a definite contender for my favourite gloves and pads for 2016...

New bat stickers look great in the flesh too - love the embossing! Pick-up on the Warbird is incredible - the best in the range for me. Photos and videos etc. to come in the next few days.

Just want to say well done Matt and Adam! One of the best 2016 ranges without question.

Keep on looking at these as the bench mark for 2016 ranges. The styling, embossing and design is impeccable.

From all the ranges the buzz around h4l this season is immense,
Definitely a great range and the sorts look pure quality,
Could be a show off between the custom gloves and the grays prestige range,
But I'm looking forward to try a warbird at the vitas meet if I can get there
