I know they're still around because Jimmy Anderson uses them, but here is Australia Slazenger has disappeared off the face of the earth. Once Clarke and then Steve Smith stopped using them the market has well and truly diminished for them.

Good bats - I think most were TK made - but the last I heard of the proprietor was that he was pawning his parents jewellery to keep the wolves from the door

Along with Andy from Saf miss there entertainment

I wonder if Japanese customs see much cricket-related business these days?

This might be me imagining things but I’m sure there used to be a brand called

Stick bats

They had a model called fire which was red and I’m sure owzat stocked them at some point

Popped into Cricket-Hockey near Salisbury yesterday. They're still stocking their FUNKY brand but have gone big on all the major players. They try and stock everything available from the suppliers they use and they have a huge bat stock. (It might be the largest in the country.) I like the fact that you can see full stock availability from the website. Didn't realise how big their hockey, snooker and darts stocks are too. All in all a good place to while away some time.

They own funky hence the strong link into Hampshire previously with the kit.

Cricket-Hockey still run the shop at the Rose Bowl but I don't think there's any Funky branded Hampshire kit around anymore. They don't have any sponsored players left either. You still see a few bats around the Hampshire/Southern leagues. There's a few good specials on the web site.

I wish Symonds come back in existence somehow. KP would be happy to be their ambassador ;)
