Gunn & Moore Original Le Batting Pads

Gunn & Moore Original LE Cricket Batting Pads

The Gunn & Moore Original LE Cricket Batting Pads are senior batting pads designed for cricketers who want top level protection, comfort and a secure fit at the crease. They combine a traditional cotton and cane construction with triple layered knee protection, shock absorbing foam and a durable Pro PU leather facing.

The Original LE sits at the top of the premium end of GM's batting pad range and uses additional comfort features to support players through long periods at the crease.

The knee receives dedicated triple layered protection, using additional foam and fibre to provide extra impact protection and support. This is particularly important when facing faster bowling, where the knee and surrounding areas need substantial coverage against direct impacts.

A Pro PU leather facing forms the exterior of the Original LE. It provides a strong, durable outer surface designed to handle repeated use. The PU construction also provides a practical surface for maintaining the pads throughout the season.

Protection needs to remain comfortable once you have spent several hours at the crease. Low density foam bolsters help the pads sit snugly against the legs, while shock absorbing comfort foam provides additional cushioning against impact.

The combination gives the Original LE a protective internal structure while maintaining the comfort needed to handle long batting sessions.
