📌 Cricket Batting Pads Specifications
The SS Superlite Cricket Batting Pads represent the pinnacle of modern protective engineering. While traditional pads rely on heavy cane, the Superlite utilizes High-Density EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) and lightweight internal bolsters. This transition in material allows for a drastic reduction in weight, making these some of the most sought-after pads for T20 and limited-overs specialists across the USA.
Designed specifically for the ambitious club player, the three-piece inside knee construction provides an anatomical fit that moves with your leg, rather than against it. The premium Korean PU facing is not only durable against high-velocity impacts but is also specifically treated to resist the scuffing and staining often encountered on the varied pitch types found throughout the Midwest. If you’re a batter who prizes footwork and speed between the wickets, these pads provide the confidence to take on any bowler.
Outer Material: Top-quality Korean PU / PVC Front
Padding: Lightweight High-Density EVA Foam
Internal Bolsters: Triple vertical foam strips for extra shin protection
Straps: 3x adjustable 50mm Velcro straps
Instep: Padded mesh with wear-resistant piping

📌 Why SS Superlite Cricket Batting Pads
1. Engineered for the "Quick Single"

3. Tailored Midwest Fit
We understand the needs of the American cricketer. From the indoor winter nets in Illinois to the outdoor summer heat, the Superlite’s breathable backing ensures maximum airflow, preventing moisture buildup and keeping the pads securely in place even during long, grueling innings.
