Crazy and the way Aldred talks about it it’s costing thousands and thousands to be certified

Like silly money for each variation of pad colour and sizing …

At that price batting without pads could be a regular occurrence!:

As im aware, Aldreds pads and gloves have passed the sidewall and front testing, but they also need toxicology testing as well which i don't think he's got yet

This is bonkers! Are people eating softs these days....

Sorry if it's been mentioned... what are the tests for?
Do they need to be done each season with each new range or modifications to an existing range?

It was an EU2016 directive, that a clown in hampshire trading standards decided all cricket gears were ppe, so needed testing. He Didn't worry too much about his kids using non tested kit tho
And yes, i believe once tested, if you change the colourway then they need testing again.

This could explain the Eng/ Ire result.

Surprised chase thought it was worth it with all the costs

Better to just not sell softs unless massive profit in them ?
