getting the Morrant ones from a website in the US. www.cricketgear.com he should have them in about 4-5 weeks and they will be between $65-$70 USD really good price for them.. Shipping will only be like $5-$10 for me also since its within the USA. So for about $80 (50gbp) I get the morrant pads shipped to me...

ya spoke to him about those.. he said they aren't as good as the Morrant ones but pretty good value for the money.. According to him SF makes the best softs from the all the major Indian brands.. (Comparing last years softs)

you sure hes not comparing the SF ones to the top of the range morrants? pretty sure the ones you're planning to buy are the same except for the branding

edit: either that or hes trying to rip you off :p

I have just bought the Morrant Ultrlite International pads and they are simply amazing. Having used the BAS Bow 20/20, Warsop Spindrifts and the GM RBs, I can very convincingly say that one of these pads come close to the flexibility, lightness, comfort and protection 0f the Morrant Ultralite Internationals.

Cost a fair bit more, but well worth the money....

I have a pretty good relationship with him.. he said they are just a notch below the morrants.. he said the finishing and longevity of them are the only 2 differences.. Dunno might just go with Morrant ones cause after all they are known just for their pads they must be doing something different and right..  :D

Hope the extra 20 is worth it..  ;)

Have been using the top end Morrants for 3 years now and they are still my favourites. I have cycled through many bats and gloves in the meantime...but only one pair of pads. Top notch!

the top end ones here cost almost 3x as much as 1 down.. have a teammate who has them they are great no doubt.. but i think the cheaper ones will be good enough.. just have a feeling.. unless i find the top end ones for shipped to the US for $150 ish I can consider them..

Shouldn't think so, there may be slight cosmetics difference, depends on which country will ship them to US
