Newbery Pads
« on: September 23, 2010, 05:42:19 PM »

Hi

Just a quick question. anyone know if newbery pads come up either slightly/bigger smaller than other brands?

i have slazenger pads atm (MRH) which fit fine. but my plain unbraded pads (also MRH) come up slightly smaller.

so stuck on which size pad to buy now OSM or normal MRH?! Its really hard when there are no cricket retailers about to go and try these products out!

Its depends on what you want. If they did come smaller it would hardly be a big difference compared to other brands. Do you want slightly smaller pads or get pads a little bigger. The choice is yours, pick whatever you feel comfty with.

I find newbery pads have quite stiff top hats.

Yeah their top hats are quite moulded especially on the gt's but then they are all pretty small and uninterfering..

Think I'm gonna have to find some oversize mens ones then, would rather they were slightly too big if anything. But to be honest they shouldn't be being 6"4!
