Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are these pads suitable for all formats or just T20?
A: While optimized for T20 cricket's mobility demands, these pads provide sufficient protection for all formats. However, keepers playing primarily longer formats might prefer heavier pads with additional padding.

Q: How do these compare to traditional keeping pads?
A: The 4.0 T20 pads are noticeably lighter and more flexible than traditional keeping pads, sacrificing some padding thickness for improved movement and comfort during the shorter format.

Q: What's the difference between these and batting pads?
A: These wicketkeeping pads feature a slimmer profile, specialized instep protection, greater flexibility points, and lightweight construction compared to batting pads which offer more comprehensive frontal protection.

Q: Do these pads require a break-in period?
A: Minimal break-in is required due to the pre-curved design and flexible materials. Most keepers find them comfortable from first use, though strapping may need adjustment to personal preference.
