The golden rule, before you start any load of laundry, is to check the care labels on all your clothes. This will give you an idea of the absolute maximum temperature you can wash your garments, and help you avoid disaster. It is always worth noting that bright and dark colours prefer cooler, quicker washes. Higher temperatures washing encourages the loss of dye and fade black and bright clothes by opening up the fibres, so a warm or cool wash is your best bet. To set dye, try using white vinegar instead of detergent when you wash new clothes for the first time. After the first wash, using a good detergent aimed at low temperature washing will ensure you get a great clean, even at lower temperatures. At AB Sports, we are dedicated to giving you the best products. We also want to make sure you know exactly how to care for your kit.
All AB Sports bats are made to give them instant performance. We apply our patented Hammer Edge sheet to protect the fibres on the edge and toe. We apply our Newbery toe guard to reduce risk of damage to the toe. If any of the original features are removed or tampered with you will automatically loose the warranty. We apply this to encourage the longevity of our bats. Our bats are pre-treated at the factory with a polished wax finish to protect and pressed for instant performance. We do advise you spend time knocking in the edges and the toe as these are the most vulnerable areas. Once a bat leaves our showroom it will be subject to the wear and tear of cricket games and practice. Willow by nature, is a very soft wood that, when pressed, provides the rebound qualities required to strike the ball. Wood is a natural product, which can only take so much stress and strain. The life span of a bat should be measured by how much ball impact it sustains, not the length of time you own it, the customer who uses their bat seven days a week should expect it to break quicker than that of the customer who uses it once or twice. performance.
