As a further extension to the above waffle, I have seen these online although not tried them - which may be an interesting budget thigh pad set option, if you want something in between a traditional set and an Aero set...

only comes in right handed though.

Buzz - I admire your enthusiasm for the lowly old thigh pad, a much maligned and over looked piece of kit - keep fighting the good fight - i'll never look at one without thinking some poor sod wrote a whole page about these :D

SS thanks - god knows what on earth I am doing wasting time on this boll*cks!! ???

My lunatic research into thighpads has continued...!!
RS have just released the below effort (available for about £17) posted from Richard at Quantum cricket. The thigh pad is 40cm high (total top to bottom) and 21cm wide not counting the curve (the radius with the curve will be a bit bigger). These are a new 2011 model just in and very high protection grade. I am not sure how thick they are, I expect around 25mm.
I think they look good - 40 cm is ideal for 5ft8-6ft. I have enquired about a larger size, but these need to be ordered in from India so there is a bit of a wait
