Hi Guys!

The webstore where the new JayDee straps and t-shirts are available to pre-order is now live!

It's a pre-order for now which will run until the 31st of October. This is due to the manufacturers having minimum order quantities and to help me avoid under or over ordering.

If we reach the minimum order quantity before the 31st I can go ahead and put the orders in!

The t-shirts will be made by an awesome screen printing guy who is based next door to the JayDee workshop!

The straps are made by a quality leather strap manufacturer here in England!

Enjoy Guys!
