Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do these pads compare to higher-end SG models?
A: The Super Test sits in SG's mid-premium range, offering professional-level protection without the premium price of their Test series. They provide similar protection but with slightly less advanced materials than top-tier models.
Q: Are these suitable for all forms of cricket?
A: Yes, these pads are designed for all formats from Test matches to T20s. The balance of protection and mobility makes them versatile for varying wicketkeeping demands.
Q: What's the recommended cleaning method?
A: Clean with a damp cloth using mild soap. Allow to air dry naturally away from direct sunlight. Never machine wash or use harsh chemicals which can damage the polyurethane facing.
Q: Do these pads require breaking in?
A: Minimal breaking in is required. The wrap-around design provides good flexibility from first use, though 2-3 sessions will help them conform better to your leg shape for optimal comfort.
