Made in Meerut · Sold direct
Leg guards sold as a pair, made in our own facility. Four colours, Mens and Youth, configured for right or left handed batters. ₹3,499 against an MRP of ₹5,999.
Protective equipment is bought on photographs more than anything else, so here is the whole pad rather than the flattering side of it — face, edge, back and straps.
Shown in White. Black, red and blue are identical in construction — same Levlon PU facing, same high density foam, same twelve cane rods, same weight.

Almost every pad looks similar from the front. What separates one from another sits underneath the facing, and it is worth knowing before you compare prices.
Vertical rods running the length of the pad. Their job is to spread an impact along the pad rather than letting it concentrate where the ball struck — which is what actually stops a hard ball reaching your shin.
A pad without enough rods, or with rods that have shifted, transmits the blow straight through. It is the single most important component and the one you cannot see.
| Part | What it does |
|---|---|
| Cane rods | Spread impact along the pad. Ours uses twelve. |
| High density foam | Absorbs what gets past the rods. Density matters more than thickness — soft thick foam bottoms out under a real impact. |
| Levlon PU facing | Takes the abrasion, keeps the weight down, holds up better than cheaper coated fabrics. |
| Knee roll | Lets the pad bend where your leg bends, and protects the kneecap. Its position defines the fit. |
| Straps | Hold the pad flush so it cannot rotate. Three, fastened top down. |
And weight, which people underrate. Ours are 730 to 760g a pair — you carry that through every run, and heavy pads tire the legs across a long innings. That shows up precisely when you need to be running hard at the end of it.
Not by height, not by age. One measurement decides it, and it takes thirty seconds.
Measure from the centre of the kneecap to the top of the instep, with the leg slightly bent as it would be in your stance. That number decides the size.
Then hold the pad against the leg and check one thing: the knee roll must sit directly over the kneecap. Not above it, not below it.
That is the test. A pad can measure the right length and still fail it, because the roll's position within the pad varies — length is a guide, the roll is the answer.
| Knee roll sits | Verdict |
|---|---|
| Over the kneecap | Correct. The pad bends where your leg bends. |
| Above the kneecap | Too long. It fights the knee every stride and leaves the shin's upper edge poorly covered. |
| Below the kneecap | Too short. The kneecap is exposed, and it is a bad place to take a ball. |
Between two sizes? Take the smaller. A slightly short pad still has its roll near the knee and lets you run properly. A slightly long one does neither — it catches as you push off, which shortens the front foot stride and starts you playing from the crease.
Most adult club cricketers take Mens. Juniors need measuring the same way — height and age are not enough, and two children of the same age frequently need different sizes.
The most common ordering mistake in protective equipment, and the easiest to avoid.
Batting pads are handed, and it is not about which pad goes on which leg. It is about where the protection is concentrated.
Your front leg takes far more direct blows — it is the leg you push toward the ball, and it is in line. So the front pad carries heavier protection on its outside edge, along with a side flap covering the outer ankle and calf.
| You bat | Front leg | Order |
|---|---|---|
| Right handed | Left leg | Right hand pads |
| Left handed | Right leg | Left hand pads |
Order the wrong pair and the reinforced face and side flap end up on the inside of the leg, where almost nothing hits you. You are wearing protection that faces away from the ball.
Choose the hand you bat with, not the hand you write with. A surprising number of cricketers bat the opposite way to how they throw — worth a moment's thought if you are ordering for someone else.
A pad that moves is a pad that is not where you think it is — which means you bat with confidence you have not earned.
If you have to over-tighten to stop rotation, the pad is too large. That is a sizing problem, not a strapping one, and no amount of adjustment fixes it.
A common and expensive confusion, particularly when buying online where the photographs look similar.
| Batting pads | Wicket keeping pads | |
|---|---|---|
| Length | Longer — mid-thigh to instep | Shorter, ending below the knee |
| Built for | A direct blow from a bat's length away | Crouching, moving sideways, low deflections |
| Handed? | Yes — front leg carries more protection | No — symmetrical |
| Weight | Heavier, more rods | Lighter, built for mobility |
They are not interchangeable. Keeping pads worn for batting leave the thigh and upper shin under-protected; batting pads worn for keeping make you slow. If you do both jobs you need both.
Pads cover the shin and the knee. They stop at the top of the pad — and the thigh is where a ball that keeps low off a length actually hits you.
This matters beyond the bruise. A player hit hard on the front thigh stops committing forward. Not as a decision — the body stops driving the front foot toward the ball because it has recent evidence that doing so hurts.
What follows is a chain any coach recognises: the stride shortens, you stop getting to the pitch of the ball, you start playing from the crease, and your scoring areas shrink to whatever you can reach without moving. That lasts weeks, not days.
A thigh guard set at ₹1,699 covers it — and set means outer and inner. The inner thigh takes the inside edge, which is the one you never see coming and the one that hurts most.
| Do this | Why |
|---|---|
| Air them after every session | Sealing sweat-damp pads into a kit bag breaks down the foam, and it is what causes the smell. |
| Wipe the facing, never machine wash | A damp cloth only. Machine washing destroys the foam and the stitching. |
| Store flat, not folded | A pad stored folded develops a permanent bend at the fold, and compressed foam does not spring back. |
| Dry at room temperature | Never on a radiator or in direct sun — heat hardens the facing and cracks it. |
| Store off the floor in monsoon | Foam holds damp. Four months against a cold floor is how a good pair goes soft unnoticed. |
Scuffing on the facing is normal wear and not a reason to replace anything.
Protective equipment normally passes through a distributor, a wholesaler and a retailer before it reaches a player, each adding margin. We removed all three. That is the entire reason a pad with an MRP of ₹5,999 sits at ₹3,499 here. The pad is unchanged — only the supply chain is shorter.
Four colours, two sizes, two batting hands. Everything a player actually needs to specify, on one properly-made pad, rather than a ladder of models at four price points where the cheapest is a false economy.
Message us your measurement and we will tell you which size to take — including telling you that you are between two and which we would pick. Akshat or Utkarsh answer. There is nobody in between.
Minimum wholesale order is 30 units, and sizes, hands and colours are mixable within one order — which is what equipping a squad actually requires rather than thirty identical pairs.
Ours are ₹3,499 a pair against an MRP of ₹5,999. Batting pads in India commonly run from around ₹800 for very basic practice pads up to ₹8,000 and beyond from branded retailers. A great deal of the difference at the top end is supply chain rather than materials.
Measure from the centre of the kneecap to the top of the instep with the leg slightly bent, as it would be in your stance. That measurement decides the size, not your height or shoe size. Ours come in Mens and Youth - most adult club cricketers take Mens, and if you are between the two the smaller one is usually better.
Yes, and it is the most common ordering mistake in protective equipment. Your front leg takes far more direct blows, so the front pad carries heavier protection on its outside edge. For a right-handed batter the front leg is the left; for a left-handed batter it is the right. Choose the hand you bat with, not the hand you write with.
The knee roll should sit directly over the kneecap - that is the test, not the overall length. The top should reach mid-thigh and the bottom should cover the instep without resting on the foot. If the knee roll is out of position, the size is wrong however the length looks.
Ours use a Levlon PU facing over high density foam, with twelve cane rods running vertically to spread impact along the pad rather than concentrating it at the point of contact. The cane rods are what actually stop a hard ball transmitting force through to your shin.
Ours are 730 to 760g a pair. Weight matters more than people expect because you carry it through every run - heavy pads tire the legs across a long innings, which shows up exactly when you need to be running hard at the end.
No. Keeping pads are shorter, lighter and built for crouching and moving sideways rather than taking a direct blow from a bat's length away. Batting pads are longer, carry more protection on the front and outside, and are handed. They are not interchangeable.
Usually not. A tennis ball deforms on impact and carries far less energy into the leg than a 156g leather ball. Most tennis and tape ball cricketers play without pads reasonably. For leather ball cricket at any level, pads are not optional.
Fasten the top strap first and work down. Firm enough that the pad cannot rotate around the leg when you run, loose enough to bend the knee fully. Straps go behind the leg, not crossed. If you have to over-tighten to stop rotation, the pad is too large - that is a sizing problem rather than a strapping one.
Yes, and sizing by height or age is not enough - measure knee to instep the same way. A pad that is too long stops a young player running properly and gets in the way of the front foot, which teaches them to stay in the crease. A pad slightly too small is better than one slightly too long.
When you can feel impact through the foam, when a cane rod has broken or shifted - you can usually feel it as a ridge - or when the straps no longer hold the pad steady. Scuffing on the facing is normal wear and not a reason to replace anything.
Yes. Minimum wholesale order is 30 units and you can mix sizes, hands and colours within one order, which is what most academies need. Message us on WhatsApp with the numbers and we will quote.
