I know, but you told me to ignore your hammer rants so I am.

I've heard the softs world is a real pain to get into? Is it really that bad? I wanted to do something on a small scale, but just keep hearing horror stories,

Put it this way, I could get some made very quickly but im dubious about the companies who keep spamming me and more so the quality.

I chose a top manufacturer ... the MH and B3 one .... and they seem to take a very very long time to reply to emails. Then it takes them an age to do a sample. Im waiting for a response from December on whether he can send me the sample gloves and pads that they made so i can look at them, obviously paying for them. Nothing back.

small scale is a minimum order in the thousands not hundreds of £'s

Yes I know a little of the pitfalls to softs and unfortunately if your small you tend to get overlooked for the big boys.

I also know a few good sources myself for softs and other items.

I also know one that are quite quick and good and speedy
