Kookaburra Pro 1.0 Cricket Wicket Keeping Pads
The Kookaburra Pro 1.0 Cricket Wicket Keeping Pads are premium keeping pads designed for premier cricketers who need protective equipment suited to regular wicket keeping. They combine square foam styling with super soft three-piece internal bolsters, adjustable Velcro straps and durable reinforcement around key wear areas.
The Square Foam Styling forms the main protective construction of the Pro 1.0. Wicket keeping pads need to provide leg coverage while still allowing the keeper to move repeatedly between their standing position, crouch and lateral movements behind the stumps.
On the inside, Kookaburra uses Super Soft Three Piece Internal Bolsters. The three-piece construction provides the internal contact and cushioning between the protective outer pad and the keeper's leg, with the soft material helping maintain comfort during extended periods behind the stumps.
The pads are secured using Adjustable Straps with Velcro Closure. This allows the keeper to adjust the fastening around the leg rather than relying on a fixed setup, helping keep the pads securely positioned while keeping.
Kookaburra also specifies Durable Top Hat and Instep Piping. These reinforced areas contribute to the overall construction around parts of the pad exposed to regular use, helping make the Pro 1.0 suitable for the demands of premier cricket.
