We have great news! Despite Cyclone Alfred's best efforts to interrupt the manufacture of the shirts, our amazing supplier has been able to deliver just under 200 shirts to us this week and we've started to post out to customers.
We've had a very small issue with some size Small tees, and a 5XL, however we expect these to be finished next week and also posted!
The great news is due to popular demand we now have these shirts as a stocked item on our website, so order away!
We'd love to see some socials on Facebook or Insta with anyone wearing them!
