Hi George, @StrettonFox Sports

I saw on your social media that you expect these to be in shops in July. Can't wait it's going to be superb!

Do you know when a list of retailers/stockists will be available please?

spoonbed · « **Reply #151 on:** June 27, 2020, 05:51:40 PM »

Pretty sure our very own Rob @Six Sixes Cricket is going to stock them

Hey everyone! I hope you are all well and safe.

Very excited as the bulk delivery has landed in the UK! It's all finally happening!

The distributors are going to have a busy week getting orders prepared for sending out to chosen UK stockists, also preparing a photo shoot/video session with some pros for PR purposes. I'm going to be filming some stuff as well on how to use etc..

This is where the fun starts!

Would we use this link if we have already expressed interest with Rob at 6 sixes??

I am only one who is thinking how would I fit wicket keeping pads in my oven?

Stick em ont BBQ

StrettonFox Sports · « **Reply #160 on:** July 04, 2020, 09:43:45 PM »

Very good question! A standard oven can take the keeper pads at an angle

please don't BBQ them!

Got my thigh guard set yesterday, thanks for the great service @Six Sixes Cricket !

First impressions, the quality of them is unbelievable, the actual thigh guard and straps are really unmatched at that price point. It was quite interesting having to put them in the oven, I was sure they were going to end up in flames but 10 minutes at 80c and they were ready to be moulded. The moulding process was fairly easy, but it did take a few goes to get them to the right position, I am still fiddling with them to get it perfect. Also worth noting the instructions are hidden on the box itself, I was looking through the manual for ages trying to figure out what to do!

First impressions was that the thigh guard was huge. I am 6'3 so right at the top of the large sizing, and they feel pretty big to me. The main thigh guard wraps all the way around, which is way more than my p2's or moonwalkr's did. This will give you a lot more protection, but might be overkill for your average cricketer imo.

I used them in the nets last night and they felt good if a little cumbersome with how large they are. It might be they need some more moudling so they fit more snug or maybe I need a smaller size. However, having already used them and taken the tags off I won't be able to return them.

All in all - very happy with the quality of them, they look stunning and the protection seems great having taken a mallet to them

Probably worth being wary of sizing and sizing down, especially if you don't feel you need your whole thigh to be protected.

I'll put some photos up in a bit so you can see what they look on

I agree with the sizing point. Mine arrived yesterday, again great service from Rob at Six Sixes, but I believe they are a little oversized for me. I�m 6�2� and ordered the recommended Large and after putting them against me, and comparing them to my Ton combo thigh pads, wouldn�t be comfortable wearing them that big especially the inner thigh guard. I�ve returned them and going a size down for the medium instead.
