...having had our current club clothing supplier cease trading (Second one in 4 years) I was wondering where people go to for the venerable Club T-Shirts / Hoodies etc? ------------- Lightning368 'All the Gear' (409), Lightning368 'Sprite' (101), Laser (big number) 'Yellow Jack', RS Vareo (432)'The Golden Rays' |

Wave clothing still. Occasionally hiccups when I wonder if they are still with us, but last time I looked they were. ------------- Firefly 2324, Puffin 229, Minisail 3446 Mirror 70686 |

Yeah, we used 'Wave' for a while but it all went a bit 'quiet' and huge delays on deliveries, so we went elsewhere - assuming that they'd gone (no replies to emails/calls etc) The website is still up and all 'looks' active though..... I always liked their stuff (particularly the backprint option) so I've just made an exploratory order. ------------- Lightning368 'All the Gear' (409), Lightning368 'Sprite' (101), Laser (big number) 'Yellow Jack', RS Vareo (432)'The Golden Rays' |

Wave clothing, ditto with lack of contact, waited up to a week before Xmas, then asked them where order was, didn't get a reply but item turned up day before Xmas eve, not used them since. Was told earlier this year it was a student run thing, not sure of this though. ------------- Robert |

NEVER!, but I need to save some time for cycling and radio sailing. Having spent my " working" life being paid to muck about within my hobbies, I now have more free time! |

As far as I am aware Wave ceased trading. We used to use them for D-Zero kit until people had issues an they didnt respond to any communications either from the people who ordered or the class. ------------- Paul ---------------------- D-Zero GBR 74 |

Yeah, I'm getting that feeling  I was still able to make an order last week....I'll see how it pans out. A shame if they have ceased because I liked their stuff, especially the stretchy T-Shirts and the 'backprint' option. I guess I'll keep looking. ------------- Lightning368 'All the Gear' (409), Lightning368 'Sprite' (101), Laser (big number) 'Yellow Jack', RS Vareo (432)'The Golden Rays' |

Well, my 'Test' order via Wave arrived today.
So it looks like they're still going. From order to arriving was just about 10 days I think. Nice quality T-Shirt too 👌 ------------- Lightning368 'All the Gear' (409), Lightning368 'Sprite' (101), Laser (big number) 'Yellow Jack', RS Vareo (432)'The Golden Rays' |
