Classic Cricket Whites Are Back, Thanks To N.E. Blake & Co.
As the retro revolution continues to drive culture and fashion statement in the streets and sport, it’s the turn for one of the world’s oldest and most popular games to receive a vintage drop.
Step in, N.E. Blake & Co.
Originally a sportswear business that started in 1926 and operated out of a modest shop in Reading, England called N.E. Blake. Now, over 90 years later, the brand is back for its second innings thanks to Henry Lloyd-Hughes, the great-grandson of the original Founder, Paddy Padwick.
“Having often admired old boys in the nets with proper cotton whites, tailored, made of hard wearing drill cotton, but unable to find them, we’ve decided to make it our mission to create the worlds best cricket whites.”
The relaunch sees the brand stay true to their roots, focusing on giving the modern game a vintage touch by bringing out a small selection of contemporary cricket whites with a unique heritage to be worn on or off the wicket.
An exclusive collection that consist of three items:
