Aero P2 Strippers V8 Thigh Pad Set

Aero P2 Strippers v8 Thigh Guard Set

The Aero P2 Strippers v8 Thigh Guard Set is designed for club cricketers who want dependable lower body protection without restricting their movement at the crease. Using dual layer EVA protection rated for ball speeds up to 130 km/h, it provides integrated coverage across the upper and lower thigh, inner groin, hip bone and part of the buttocks.

The P2 Strippers v8 brings several protective areas together into one system. Coverage extends beyond the front thigh to include the lower thigh, inner groin, hip bone and part of the buttocks, helping protect areas that can be exposed when facing bowling.

The protective sections use dual layer EVA and are suitable for ball speeds up to 130 km/h, positioning the P2 for most club level cricket.

A cricket specific ergonomic shape allows the guard to follow the body as you move. This helps maintain natural movement when settling into your stance, getting forward or back through a shot and running between the wickets.

Anti snag velcro leg straps make fitting straightforward and help hold the protection securely in place. The adjustable waist strap provides two fitting options, while antibacterial polyester mesh contributes to comfort and freshness during longer periods at the crease.

Who is the Aero P2 Strippers v8 best for?

The Aero P2 Strippers v8 is best for club level cricketers who want broad lower body coverage with good freedom of movement. Its 130 km/h ball speed rating makes it a practical option for most club players who need reliable protection without moving to the higher protection level of the P1 model.
