I have had strettons a good few years now, and rate them very highly.
But, my design, which was what most strettons were made to be like(strip design across the middle) often made the velcroing not perfect.
So when the switch to sublimation and printing came I wanted a redesign. Plan was to have my current ones refurbed. But a few emails to and from George. And I new pair it was!
As a valued customer George offered me a pretty discounted price, and at that price I just couldn't say no!
So my spare set was sold to me pye, and the new set ordered.
Design! Well I'm obsessed with red at moment, and have always liked red camo, so that was going on the inners.
Outer! Wanted a darker look, I had white so go with black this time.
And personalisation?
Well I'm a big big comic book fan, and wanted to go with a more obscure character that I liked. And one that went with red and black.
Deadpool coming out at cinema his year meant he was ruled out, as it'd be less obscure so went with the mighty REDHOOD!
I wanted the character printer on, but George was worried about quality on black, so a patch in different material it was. Which means it can be moved about. Or removed. Convenient.
For anyone interested, Redhood is a former Robin who doesn't believe in bat mans no kill policy, so pretty much like deadpool is an antihero.
Anyway less of the sad stuff. Pads time!!
And my current stretton collection
Strettons and there customisation are obviously very personally things, so I don't expect many to like what I have, all that matters to me is I do. And that's why I won't ever attempt to sell these. There mine!
Also a hat tip to the mighty George, top top man in this business, a gent and a pleasure to deal with everytime. Cheers
