Leather + Willow: Issue 1

July 23, 2017 by Angus Wilson in Book, Photography

A brand new cricket publication has landed called Leather + Willow and it's not your standard magazine.

Brought to us by Pro:Direct Cricket, Leather + Willow shares an insight into the culture of cricket and the gear worn in the game. This is not a catalog to browse through product though. This is 150 pages of pure cricket. From talking with some of the games' elite, to showcasing the development of a trusty short handle. That's once you get past the addictive smell of the freshly printed, unopened pages. 

Featuring interviews with Joe Root, Jos Buttler, Peter Trego, Sam Billings, Tymal Mills, Laura Winfield, Tammy Beaumont, Heather Knight and even a brief appearance from the ever-growing Barmy Army, it ticks all the boxes for cricket fans. Whilst the purists out there will appreciate the photography and stories from GM, Gray-Nicolls, PUMA, Chase and SS.

If the imagery doesn't pull at your heartstrings, the words will. You can tell this has been put together by cricket lovers, for cricket lovers.
