Hey guys how are you all! Over the moon to hear you're getting on well with the latest incarnations!

Sizing does seem to be a big question here so I'm going to post a video showing how I wear my size 3's at 5'10. I believe it's all about the angle but am loving this feedback and thoughts, you're flippin' brilliant as usual!!

Thank you again and take care!
George

Leaving us waiting anxiously for said video @StrettonFox Sports  ;)

Who else has these?

What is your height and what size did you go for?

Very pleased with mine, I'm 6'3 and went for the medium.

Edit as that wasn't actually that helpful - found the outer to be way too big on the large, only a little on height but massive on width. I'm a slim-ish build, about 80kg, ymmv. Think I would have gone for a size large inner but medium outer given the chance, the medium outer is spot on for me (I don't want hip coverage) but wouldn't want the inner any smaller.

Wow mate, 6'3 and medium, they don't do an extra small.
I am looking forward to seeing what George says in the video about sizing.

I'm 6'1" and had to reorder a medium after originally going large. The medium is perfect for me and, having baked for ten minutes in a pre heated oven, they've come out a treat.  Moulded and couldn't be happier.

Great product George @StrettonFox Sports and great service from Rob @Six Sixes Cricket

Same for me, I’m 6’2” slim build and returned my large as both outer, and especially inner, came up too big.
I have now baked my mediums and they are perfect.

Even more interested in the videos now - seems like George will reveal the secret to correctly moulding them so they don’t appear too large. Can’t wait.

I am 6'1" and have also gone for the medium.  The length is fine but it is the width of the pads that come up big on me.

I am happy with the outer guard which seems to have shaped well and stays in place whilst batting.  The inner guard is causing me issues though.  I netted in then last night and every single ball it was sliding down my leg and i had to reposition it between balls.  Size wise it seems to wide to sit comfortably on my leg

Hey guys!

Have a look and see what you think, quite a bit of background noise but hopefully this helps!

Would love to hear feedback and I can very happily shoot again covering info that may have been missed out!

Very best,
George

Looks like you moulded them without heat.. is the oven actually needed?

Thanks George! I think a guide on the inner thigh would be useful also if possible? I haven't quite found a way yet to sit it somewhere that doesn't move around/get in the way whilst running so some guidance would be great.

Also I find that the straps slip around the edge of the guards sometimes when I'm playing and change the fit/position (if that makes sense) - I have them done as tightly as I can. Any suggestions on this?

Love the product by the way, when I get them right they will be perfect!

Likewise, some help with the inner pad would be good. The outer pad is perfect and keeps its shape but the inner pad keeps getting too flat and is difficult to shape to the thigh comfortably. The velcro is the strongest I have ever seen💪

I’m sorely tempted by a set of these but having just reworked mine (from 2013) for the first time in a few years and they are staying in place much better so struggling to justify - have there been any significant changes in shape or materials George?
