HEY!
Due to increased issues, charges and problems due to Brexit its become clear I need to start looking at an alternative leather supplier to help combat supply issues. Unfortunately this means there will be some changes to my offerings and colours in the forseeable.
I basically had 3 large shipments of hides have had problems and delays, in the most recent one, the quality of the dark brown was not up to scratch, and I had two new colours I was looking to trial. These hides were just unusable, really low quality and far too soft.
I have been working with my regular supplier and essentially its become clear its not a relationship that can continue at this scale, so ill be moving some colours over to an alternative supplier and keeping some with them as long as they can guarantee quality.
Fear not, I will NEVER send a product out, with leather that is sub par. Id rather lose money than send out crap.
Ive been trialing a hide from the world renowned Walpier on my dark brown for the past 6 months or so and I am really impressed with the quality and feedback I have been getting. Ive ordered a few black and a NEW COLOUR to try out, very exciting.
This does however mean, my second best selling harness antique brown, may have a limited shelf life...
Ultimately, change is coming and change is good.
