HelmutX Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 (edited) Well, let's hope product gets delivered before the 11th hr 59th minute... but then again, it's a monopoly... and has more flavour than 2023..... what a boring theme that was/is. https://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/tt-merchandise-provider-makes-upfront-payment-for-contract/ Edited April 17 by HelmutX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbnuts Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 It’s well on its way in containers mainly from China. . Look for it in the shops Mid May with the usual fanfare and press launch. I’ve been told that there really engaging with local outlets in the build up. Better than Cube by a million miles . Looking promising from all I’ve heard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the designs are all agreed by Government MotorSport division and signed of after in some cases knocked back. And the price is set by them also. The Containers are been tracked by a friend who’s involved . They are totally on schedule and remember practice starts late on 27th May. Interestingly enough they aren’t doing the Grand Prix and that’s gone to Black Dog up at Jurby They apparently bailed out Cube when sizes and designs failed or insufficient numbers. Fair play.

Aren’t they a firm who are part of the JD Sports group? I don’t see why there should be any issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omobono Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 I have seen some of their soccer related kit , very lightweight and full of Nylon ,producing merchandise for motorcycle enthusiasts is a bit different they want something cotton easily washable and falling into the smart casual bracket ,but warm enough to be worn on the motorcycle , the world and his wife are selling motorcycle themed clothing at the grandstand and elsewhere during TT week , Cube were a disaster and someones head should have rolled for the mess the department made of the procurement process and the due diligence or lack of it , 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
