No worries pal!

No I have not used the AS V10 gloves. However, I am familar with AS V10 pads (which are very similar to Boom Boom's). I must say pads are top notch whereas AS is first Pakistani brand to have knee bolster in there pads. Ihsan, Boom Boom, CA, AM, MB etc don't have knee bolster in there top of the range pads.

In your opinion are the V10 the best Pakistani pads on the market? The Newbery GT355 pads are excellent, but the straps are too long (made for some close caught behind shouts a couple of times!) I prefer the traditional design but if they are comfortable and light I may give them a go. I think the V3 and CA 12000 plus pads are the same.
Have you used the Inferno 950 pads?

It would be a close call between V10 and Bubber Sher pads. Both are great looking, light in terms of weight and very well constructed. Only problem with Bubber Sher pads is that since it doesnt have a knee bolster the knee area gets a bit bulky (you wouldnt notice it much as it is slight).

Yes, V3 and CA 12000 Plus looks similar whereas CA 12000 Plus are really bulky because they have 9 canes whereas AS V3 ones have 7 canes which would be less bulky. AM 2Good pads are in same boat as well.

I havenèt used them but seen them and they are good and are quite light as well.

If I rank the Pakistani pads then it would be like this

1. Bubber Sher or AS V10 or Boom Boom 5 Star (Afridi ones)
2. Ihsan Inferno 950
3. CA 10000 Plus

Personally I prefer modern design pads as I find them better looking. But everyone have there own taste and would have different choice. IF you like traditional pads then Ihsan Inferno 950 ones would be the best among Pakistani softs.

A while ago I did review on my Bubber Sher pads which is here;
