Bowlers vs Gray Nicolls Cricket Clothing
A trouser that offers quick-drying technology versus a trouser that provides ventilation.
A. BOWLERS India Test Match Trouser
Price
The Bowlers cricket trouser has a slightly expensive price which costs ₹ 1,999.00. It is built with quality materials that provide quick-drying technology to the wearer.
Materials
Made from dri-fit polyester fabric, this cricket trouser quickly dries sweat. You can ensure that you will not feel wet during a match held in hot weather. As you perspire, the beads of sweat go immediately into the fabric and dry up. This means that it doesn’t stick to your skin. Sweating is inevitable so Bowlers made this trouser for quick-drying comfort.
The design of the trouser is quite stylish and comes in a bright colour. However, the colour may not be pleasing to the eyes especially during matches held under the sun.
Comfort
The quick-drying comfort is the top priority of this product. You don’t have to change into another trouser because of the wetness of the fabric. This product will ensure that you can save time from doing that. You can keep moving during the match without any distraction caused by the wet sensation in your thighs and legs.
Functionality
This trouser is designed for the longest format of the sport which is Test cricket. At any time and place, you can use this product. It doesn’t restrict you from using it in other formats of the sport. It is perfectly stretchable which provides fit and comfort like no other.
B. Gray Nicolls Velocity Cricket Trouser
Price
The Gray Nicolls trouser costs ₹ 850.00. It is designed to provide the first-class comfort to any cricketer. It is made with high-quality materials for good fitting, ventilation and comfort.
Materials
The product is made of good quality polyester. You can feel the softness of the fabric as you wear it. It is also designed with stretchable material for the fit of your waist, thighs and legs. You will not feel restrained with your movements while wearing them since the trousers are not tight. The materials and stitching are strong enough, hence it is not easily damaged after being used in more than five matches.
It has a drawcord that you can tighten for the fit of your waist. Front pockets are also provided to carry small items. The trouser comes in a simple and neat design. At the farther left side of the trouser’s right leg, Gray Nicolls’ logo is printed. However, the logo may come off after numerous washes.
Comfort
Ventilation is the big thing provided by the trouser. If the match is played during noon, you will not feel any heat at all because of the cooling technology of the product. At the back of the trouser’s knee area, there are ventilation zones to keep the air flowing and regulate the temperature. Despite the trouser offering ventilation, perspiration is not fully controlled by the fabric. This product comes in different sizes you can choose from.
Functionality
The Gray Nicolls trouser is suitable for any format of the sport. Whether you’re a batsman, bowler, fielder or wicketkeeper, you can use this product. To wash this trouser, hand wash and machine wash is advisable. Just make sure you don’t use a brush to remove mud stains because it can severely damage the fabric.
C. Overall Comparison
The two trousers offer comfort in different ways. The Bowlers trouser offers quick-drying technology so that the fabric will not stick on your skin during use. Gray Nicolls trouser provides ventilation or cooling to your thighs and legs. However, the type of fabric that Gray Nicolls trouser is made of, may not help in drying up your sweat.
They provide convenience and a little disadvantage but you can manage it. Choosing between the two products may be hard but the preference is all up to you.
