We are in constant contact with our shipping company and will update you as soon as we have a confirmation of the expected delivery dates.

We hope to have your order delivered to you as soon as possible and within a reasonable time period.

Please accept our most sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused.

They haven't even responded to me yet. Go figure..

7 to 10 working days which it states on the site. I commented on femmefatales Insta and they responded to me direct.

It will be 10 working days on Wednesday so I'm expecting them this week.

 

[Gepard]

I like how you can get a response within 2 hours when you post publicly but I've been waiting 6 days for a response using their email system. 

Eh, whatever. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for now. Communication has been pants so far though. 

edit: Oh wait, now I got an email. Exactly the same as you got a few days ago. Copy/Pasted word for word. No ETA.

Just bought a couple pairs of Mechanix gloves, for just under £7, are these better?  And if so why?

Cheers

[Gepard]

Yeah, mine arrived today. Not bad quality, especially for a tenner (or £5 - which is what I paid for em).

They haven't updated the status page yet though  :lol:

They are the ones with the hard plastic on the fingers/back of the hand.

These are the ones I got - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tactical-Mechanics-Wear-Athletic-Gloves-Mens-Military-Army-Driving-Airsoft-Shoot/273035787690?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=572277006446&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

Those look nice. How's the stitching?

 

[MisterG]

Looks fine to me, this is a better pic, https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tactical-Mechanics-Wear-Athletic-Gloves-Mens-Military-Army-Driving-Airsoft-Shoot/273035787690?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=572277006446&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

Not sure why they obscured some gloves and not others.

Made in Vietnam, even the Chinese are outsourcing now :lol:

The material between the fingers isn't too thick.  I get hand cramp with thick gloves when doing DIY, so I assume it would be the same for Airsoft, so this works for me.

I didn't have a problem when I went Skirmishing with this brand of glove.

 

[Druid799]

There knock offs no doubt about it at that price (the real McCoy’s are £25+) BUT if they hold together and dont fall apart ?

Result !  ^_^

Oh so these are actually good/OK?

Oh go on then ! Here you go cupcake !
