Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do these compare to higher-grade Kookaburra keeping pads?
A: While lacking the premium materials of Kookaburra's top-tier pads, the 4.0 offers excellent value with the same core design principles. Higher grades feature improved materials, additional protection, and enhanced durability.

Q: Are these suitable for wicket keepers playing on turf pitches?
A: Yes, these provide adequate protection for club and intermediate cricket on turf. The pre-curved design and shin bolsters offer sufficient impact absorption for most standard deliveries.

Q: How do I ensure proper sizing for wicket keeping pads?
A: Measure from mid-knee to ankle bone, then add 2-3 inches for proper coverage. Keeper pads should be narrower than batting pads, with the main protection concentrated on the inner shin area.

Q: What maintenance is required for these keeping pads?
A: Wipe clean with a damp cloth after use and allow to air dry naturally. Avoid direct sunlight when drying and store in a well-ventilated area. Periodically check and tighten straps as they may loosen with regular use.
