It is a chap from Kidmore, Seen a few of them in the TVL. Not had a chance to see one in my own hands to see who actually makes them.

Stickers look very garish in my opinion though.

You wouldn't want the 'e' to drop off the stickers!

@Northern monkey Their kit is only available in 2 places, their website and another one  ;).

The Bats are made by Tom and Jeff and are fully handmade! The R1 Pads are traditional and top level protection (around similar weight to other traditional pads). The R2 pads are not so traditional but are really lightweight and you can hit your leg hard with a bat mallet and would be fine.

R1 gloves are TOP NOTCH! R2 not so good but still ok for the sort of money they are.

I will see if I can find some pics somewhere.

Couple of guys at my club are friends with who makes the kit and use his bats.

Feel very nice swinging around at the boundary, sound and look nice at the middle. I keep trying to poach one to give a try but they're on to my tricks!

If anyone is interested in their bats here are a couple of them. Left is a G2 Velocity and Right is a G1 Arc. They also come with a full length padded bat bag/cover.
