Cricket
Cricket fans don’t take their cricket lightly. That’s the first thing to know when you’re picking a gift for one. This isn’t a game you dip in and out of. You can recite the scorecard. You can detail the history. You know precisely who should have been selected for the last Ashes series and you have strong feelings on the matter that could stretch to a whole afternoon. When it comes to gifts, that level of dedication changes everything.
We’ve curated this range with that love of cricket in mind. The high street ranges disappoint. Worst case scenario you end up with some generic sports mug, novelty item with a cricket bat on it or something that’ll tell the world they like cricket but nothing about who they are as a person. Cricket fans deserve better. Anyone who’s spent hours listening to Test Match Special on family car journeys, stood out in the cold on an April nets session wondering what they’re doing with their life knows this. Genuine cricket fans deserve gifts as passionate about them as they are about the game.
So we looked for specificity. Gifts that celebrate cricket fans as individuals not just approximate cricket fans. Beautifully made books zeroing in on a certain period of cricket history. Equipment that club cricket players will actually want to own. Items that people can display in their studies and living rooms that quietly scream “I know exactly who you are” to anyone that drops by. We regularly asked ourselves: would a serious cricket fan really love this? If not we didn’t send it.
But while we were curating we also tried to think about the different types of cricket fans there are. From the 8 year old child already absolutely crazed about the game playing under 11s on Saturday to the club captain who’s spent 30 years devotion to a club that struggles to afford a decent pavilion. The person who loves cricket knows their England batting averages since 1950 but couldn’t hit a ball if their life depended on it. A gift for a cricket fan needs to appreciate where they’re coming from too.
Cricket culture is unique. So are the gifts that deserve to be bought for cricket fans.
