📌 Cricket Batting Pads Specifications
The SS Fire Cricket Batting Pads are designed for the serious cricketer who values the "classic" feel of cane but demands the weight advantages of modern materials. In the competitive landscape of USA cricket leagues, your gear needs to provide confidence against both seasoned pacers and tricky spinners.
The SS Fire features a premium, wipe-clean PU facing that maintains its pristine white look match after match. Internally, the pads utilize a 3-piece knee roll with high-density sponge padding that contours to your leg, ensuring the pad moves with you rather than against you. Whether you are playing a weekend 40-over match in Naperville or a high-intensity T20 tournament in the Midwest, the SS Fire provides the impact dispersion needed to stay focused on your innings. The reinforced PVC instep is specifically added to increase durability on the harder surfaces often found in American cricket facilities.
Material: High-grade Polyurethane (PU) front for easy maintenance.
Internal Protection: Dual-density foam with cane reinforcement.
Knee System: Anatomically shaped 3-piece external knee roll.
Lining: Moisture-wicking air mesh for temperature regulation.
Instep: Hard-wearing PVC piping and padding at the base.
Straps: Two broad middle/lower straps and one upper strap for stability.

📌Why SS Fire Cricket Batting Pads-White
The SS Fire Advantage: Built for the American Pitch
- Impact Shield Technology: The SS Fire uses a proprietary layering system where the cane rods act as the primary skeleton, while the HDF backing absorbs the vibration of the ball. This is essential for protecting against bone bruising during fast-paced play.
- Ergonomic "Wrap" Fit: Unlike lower-end pads that feel like "boards" on your legs, the SS Fire is pre-curved. This ergonomic wrap ensures that there is no gap between your bat and pad during a defensive stroke, reducing the risk of "pad-play" dismissals.
- Midwest Durability: We understand that cricket in the Midwest often means playing on a variety of surfaces. The reinforced instep and high-quality PU facing are specifically chosen to resist the scuffing and wear associated with synthetic and hybrid pitches.
