Sports Equipment Buying Guides

Use this catalogue to identify an exact model, compare its original specifications and find the right size before buying. Product names and specifications may refer to earlier seasons; a familiar name does not guarantee that a newer edition has the same construction.

Hockey

Start with the setting: outdoor, indoor or goalkeeping. Compare the stated stick length, bow shape and materials for the specific model. Use the original product page alongside the size guides, rather than choosing solely from a model number.

Cricket

Check the player size, handedness where relevant and the measurements used in the product description. A bat, pad and glove can use different sizing systems. Our cricket catalogue groups the original products by type.

Running

Compare the exact shoe edition and width, then check fit with the socks you intend to wear. Read our running shoe fit checklist for a structured fitting check.

Club clothing

Use the chart for the actual club garment. Check whether a number describes a body measurement or the garment itself, and keep inches and centimetres separate. See the FFF and Blueharts guides for preserved original tables.
