Hi all.
After reading a few posts on here about softs, and companies simply re-colouring and passing off as their own, thought I'd post some pics.
Each year we try and design new softs that have something different. That could be shape, materials, protection etc. We get multiple samples made to test. We have even been out to the factories in India to sit with the manufacturers and test every part. With lower end ranges, it is often easier and cheaper to adapt an existing design.
We now have an agreement with our suppliers that our selected ranges and certain design features will be exlusive to us.
Here were some 2015 samples with detailing in the pittards and armour inserts. These would be pretty hard for anyone else to copy
We didn't go to full production this time, but still on the drawing board.
