Forrester Replica & Leisure Kit Order
Firstly I would like to thank you for your patience regarding this order and I appreciate that a lot of the order was for Christmas presents.
Our supplier was let down by the factory he placed the order with and is currently resourcing to establish another company who will offer him the same quality of kit as before to complete the order. This we are informed will be done by next week then the order will be resubmitted.
This will allow the people who have enquired as to when they can order additional kit to do so within the next 2 weeks.
If anyone needs their order adjusted i.e. sizes adjusted, names changed or order additional kit then you can email me on andy@forrester-rfc.co.uk or give me a call on 07774874045.
For any additional information regarding the kit again contact me using the contact methods above.
