Kookaburra 2024 Range
« on: September 21, 2023, 10:20:24 AM »
Morning,

Viewed Kookaburras Range yesterday, obviously cant share anything yet, but a few details on the range for you:
3 Retro bats for next year...
1 players replica.... need deep pockets!!
1 new bat in the range.... really decent full size low middle bat....Tho it is a short blade long handle
Pro gloves are ummm very interesting and not for me... but a good talking point!

If anyone is after some bats from this season i have a sale on:
Kookaburra Bubble 2.1 SH Cricket Bat – RRP £400 – Was £360 – Now £280
Kookaburra Vapour 3.1 SH Cricket Bat – RRP £300 – Was £270 – Now £210
Kookaburra Bubble 4.1 SH Cricket Bat – RRP £225 – Was £200 – Now £150

Interesting, thanks for the update. I'm keen to see what they're like.

Earlier this year I spent far too long comparing UK Kook gloves to Australia Kook gloves.
UK - https://www.kookaburrasport.co.uk/cricket/cricket-protection/batting-gloves/?per_page=20&current_page=1&sort_by=9
Aus - https://www.kookaburrasport.com.au/cricket/cricket-protection/batting-gloves/?per_page=20&current_page=1&sort_by=9

I much preferred the Aus Pro Players Ghost gloves (actually, the 2022/23 ones) to the UK ones, and to my shame ended up shipping a pair to the UK. Lovely gloves, far too good for what I need.

Aus recreational players certainly pay a premium for their gear

Hefty prices

from what i can tell, nearly all aussie sponsored kookaburra players use the ghost pro gloves in which ever colours match their bat range.

surely they might think they are worth retailing in the UK at some point, rather than variations of split finger designs which are all pretty much the same.

have always preferred the sausage style gloves, picked these up this season and have been the best so far

Nice stickers, nice price tag too!

Are these the most expensive pads on the market?

Maybe all the new tests mean companies will try and get a couple of years out of a range before launching a new one?

The stealth gloves and pads look identical to last years (or the pro models do at least) - I wonder if this means no new tests?
