Looking to get some RS (Robinson Sports) gloves from The Cricket Shed - do any of you guys have any experience with them?

Hmm, never heard of them but the Robinsons plain softs are rather tasty! As are some of the mysterious 'made in Kent' plain bats, I wonder exactly where in Kent...

I was thinking more the traditional RS gloves in all white - surely a CBF bulk buy discount  ;)

I have done business with cricket shed and they are pretty good. I bought gloves and pads from them in the past. They used to run business under different name in the past.

The Cricket Shed are decent. I've bought pads and gloves from them previously and they were good quality, prompt delivery etc. I think they used to be called SQ Sports.

I've brought from these guys too, the BAS White/Silver gloves. Seem like a decent company, prompt/secure delivery and good comms.

Ps - The gloves are fantastic  :D

Shezy is the guy who runs it, nice bloke and has a lot of 'exclusive' kit - a lot of the guys in the Essex leagues buy from him and he specialises in SF gear mostly.

I'm popping over to see him at the weekend, the RS Robinson pads are all gone now which is annoying.  I've always thought of The Cricket Shed as a local version of Online Stockist  :o

We had atleast 20 pairs of RS batting gloves last season for the team kits and they are all very very good.

Keeping gloves we got, general feedback was needed more padding as the hands hurt when collecting the delivery. Which was sent back to RS and I know they adjusted their designs after that although we didn't get to try the new improved versions.

Bats, either under the RS brand or RS bat sold as other brands were all exceptional, i think we had atleast 10 in circulation last year, my match bat is RS as well. Shapes and pickup etc depends on profiles and what brands want what but what is consistent and really good is the pressing. Their pressing is right up there with some of the best bats i have had/tried, their willow is not over dried unlike some other bats from India, all their grades play well and in terms of pricing they are very well placed, oh btw their G1's actually look like a G1 so when you get one you don't question if this was a G2 sold as G1...

Yes I am a fan of RS :)

@DorsetDan I prefer pads on the smaller side too. So looking at the small men's pads, Regular gloves. Reckon that's about right ?
