MACE Moulded Cricket Batting Pad - 2 Straps
Experience lightning-fast footwork with the MACE Moulded Cricket Batting Pads (2-Strap White). Engineered for the modern, high-intensity game, these pads are a favorite among Naperville and Chicago-area cricketers who demand maximum mobility without the bulk of traditional gear. By utilizing a high-density moulded foam construction and a simplified strap system, MACE has created one of the lightest leg guards available in the USA today.

- Pro-Grade Protection: Engineered to dissipate high-velocity impact across the entire surface area.
- Local Midwest Shipping: Fast delivery to all Illinois clubs and nationwide across the USA.

- Ambidextrous Design: "Twin-wing" profile makes these pads a perfect fit for both Right-Hand and Left-Hand batters.

- Internal Comfort: Breathable mesh lining and cushioned bolsters manage moisture during humid Midwest summers.
📌 Cricket Batting Pads Specifications
The MACE Moulded 2-Strap Cricket Batting Pads represent a radical shift in protective design. Traditional pads use a 3-strap system that often restricts the back of the knee, slowing down your running gait. MACE has solved this by moving the security to the calf and ankle, freeing the knee joint to move naturally. This is a game-changer for players in the Naperville and Midwest circuit who prioritize quick singles and aggressive crease movement.
Constructed from a single block of High-Density Moulded Foam, these pads offer a streamlined, aerodynamic profile that won't "clash" when you run. Because they are ambidextrous, they are an ideal choice for team kits or players who share gear. The crisp white finish provides a professional, "Test-match" aesthetic, while the modern engineering is built specifically for the high-octane environment of American T20 cricket.

📌 Why MACE Moulded Cricket Batting Pads-2 Straps White
1. The Freedom to Run
Traditional pads act like an anchor. The MACE Moulded series is designed like a second skin. By removing the knee strap, we’ve eliminated the most common cause of "pad-chafe," allowing you to focus entirely on the ball and the non-striker’s call.
2. Impact Energy Dissipation
Don't let the weight fool you. Moulded foam technology is designed to absorb impact by spreading the force across the entire cellular structure of the pad. This prevents "localized sting" often felt with traditional cane pads when facing fast-medium bowlers.
3. Engineered for the USA Climate
Cricket in Naperville, IL can be grueling in July. Our moisture-wicking internal lining is designed to pull sweat away from your legs, keeping the pads lightweight and secure even in 90% humidity. It’s the ultimate choice for the American summer grind.
