Slazenger, with its world-famous panther logo
continues its dominance of cricket and grows in
strength year by year. It is supported by current
England players Alec Stewart, Ian Wood, Ben
Hollioake and Paul Collingwood, who all rely
on their Slazenger bats and protective
equipment to help them unleash their natural
instinctive games. All Slazenger clothing and
equipment is exclusively endorsed by the Players
Cricket Association.
Eric Loxton, the industry's leading craftsman,
responsible for handcrafting Slazenger bats for
over 40 years, controls the production of the
bats. He personally oversees every stage of the
bat making process to ensure the perfect weight
distribution and balance in every single Slazenger
bat. With the best raw materials, used from only
the finest English willow, grown over a 24-year
process and crafted with only the finest quality
handles available, to make the best bats possible.
Slazenger's new 9 piece handles are hand made
in Barnsley. Using the finest Manou Cane, they
provide the perfect combination of stiffness and
flexibility for optimum performance.
Slazenger have improved the all important drying
process, by investing in a fully computerised
state-of-the-art kiln, resulting in even better bats,
with improved blade durability, reduced
cracking and uniform weight distribution, which
only comes from this unique drying process.
Recent, new introductions are a footwear range,
to fully complement the rest of our products and
Intercricket, an all-action cricket game for
children, which bridges the gap between softball
and traditional hardball cricket.
