‘Crafted for the uncompromising’

Ben Stokes doesn’t compromise – on performance, on leadership, on intensity. Neither does the Diamond. Every grain, every edge, every ounce is precision-crafted for players who demand more from themselves and their gear.

Only the unbreakable wield it. Only one does.

Made in conjunction with England captain Ben Stokes, the 2026 version features a refreshed livery still majoring on the England skipper’s unique tattoo design.

Returning to the traditional L555 blade length for 2026, the Diamond boasts a balanced, mid swell position, a flowing contoured spine and a well-rounded bat profile, ideal for all-round stroke-makers.

The Diamond also features a new Halo grip, as used by Ben Stokes himself ensuring perfect grip at all times.

Creating further history in the summer of 2025, including becoming the first Englishman to complete the 7,000 runs/200 wicket double in Test cricket, joining South Africa’s Jacques Kallis and West Indies’ Sir Garfield Sobers, Stokes will wield the fresh design Down Under during the 2025/26 Ashes series.

Frequently asked questions

The 'holy grail' of bats is one with a massive profile and a very light 'dead weight' but this is exceptionally hard to find.There is much discussion about heavier bats and massive edge profiles and how these will hit the ball further but we do not totally subscribe to that theory. Clearly, if you choose a lighter bat then you will most likely have to compromise slightly on the thickness of the profile and edge profile but this is not a problem. We all have different physiques and sizes and we strongly believe that to get the best performance out of a bat the most essential element is to choose one that feels the right weight for you, this will help you to time the ball better and ultimately make more runs!It is interesting when a player stipulates that they must have an exact bat weight - if a 2lb 9oz and a 2lb 10oz bat weight were placed in front of the player, it is unlikely that they would be able to tell the difference. We feel 'pick up' is more important than 'dead weight' as the 'pick up' determines how the bat will feel in play – nobody can tell you what the right pick up is for you, or the exact weight you should use – it is a question of what feels right for you.
