Aero P1 Strippers V8 Thigh Pad Set

Aero P1 Strippers v8 Thigh Guard Set

The Aero P1 Strippers v8 Thigh Guard Set is a cricket protection system designed for advanced and high level players facing fast bowling. Combining high impact plastic with dual layer EVA, it provides integrated coverage across the upper and lower thigh, inner groin, hip bone and part of the buttocks while maintaining the movement needed for batting.

Rather than protecting only the front thigh, the P1 Strippers v8 extends coverage across several vulnerable areas around the batter's lower body. The integrated design protects the upper and lower thigh, inner groin, hip bone and part of the buttocks.

The protective structure combines high impact plastic and dual layer EVA and is rated for ball speeds up to 160 km/h, making the P1 suitable for players facing genuinely quick bowling.

Designed to move with the batter

Protection is only useful if you can still bat naturally. The P1's cricket specific ergonomic shape contours to the body to support movement when getting forward, moving onto the back foot or running between the wickets.

Low profile leg straps help secure the guards without unnecessary bulk, while the adjustable waist strap provides two fitting options to help position the protection correctly.

An antibacterial polyester mesh sits alongside the protective components to help improve comfort and freshness. Combined with the adjustable strapping system, it is designed to keep the protection securely positioned through extended periods at the crease.
