Frequently Asked Questions | FAQs
Customisation, delivery, sizing and everything else before you order.
You can choose bat length, weight, handle shape, handle type, sweet spot position, toe shape, edge profile, grip type, and add-ons such as knocking, oiling, face tape, toe guard, double grip and laser engraving.
Under 1190g suits light pick-up and quick hands. 1190–1220g is the most balanced range for all-format players. 1220–1250g is better for power hitters and players who want more mass behind the ball.
Low sweet spot suits front-foot players and lower-bounce pitches. Mid sweet spot is ideal for all-round use. High sweet spot is best for back-foot players and faster pitches in the UK, Australia and New Zealand.
Short Handle is the most common choice. Long Handle is better for taller players. 6-piece cane gives a softer feel and better shock absorption, while 12-piece cane offers more vibration control and stability.
Yes. We can shape the bat for a lighter pick-up, fuller blade, or more top-weight depending on your style. Share your height, batting role and current bat preference on WhatsApp and we will guide the balance to suit your game.
Yes, always. Before production starts, we share cleft images on WhatsApp for approval. If you want a different cleft, we can suggest alternatives before the bat is made.
Most custom bats are dispatched in 7–14 days after final spec confirmation. The Arctic may take up to 30 days depending on design finalisation and engraving consultation.
Yes. We ship worldwide, including India, UK, USA, Canada, Australia, UAE and Europe. If your country is not listed at checkout, contact us on WhatsApp and we will confirm shipping options.
Delivery timing depends on your location and customs clearance. India and UK are usually the fastest. North America, Australia, UAE and Europe take longer, but we always share tracking once the order ships.
Yes, we regularly ship to all of those regions. If you are ordering from another country, we can still check availability and estimated transit time before you buy.
Yes. Laser engraving for your name is available on all models. The Arctic also offers full custom engraving and a WhatsApp designer consultation to decide what goes on the front and back of the bat.
