Update #3: Bulk Production Nearing Full Completion, Some Items Arriving
Hello again!
It’s felt like forever since the last update. Normally the month goes by in the blink of an eye but time has been moving slow for us in October. It’s a welcome change and we hope you too have had the opportunity to slow down and smell the roses. This month has been busy for our manufacturers, though!
tl;dr
- Sweaters and knit tanks are on a boat.
- Joggers and mini tees are production complete and are being packed for sea freight.
- Caps and socks have arrived at our warehouse.
- We’re sorting out the logistics to start sending ready orders.
- Those who only ordered jackets, bandanas, caps, and socks should expect another update in the next couple weeks with more details about their orders shipping.
Sweaters and knit tanks were finished October 25th and shipped October 28th. Bon voyage!
Joggers and Mini Tees are now production complete and are in the packing stage. Our manufacturer is packing all the items into garment bags, then into boxes to be shipped via sea freight. They should be on a boat in the next one to two weeks.
Everything is a little ahead of our original launch schedule (amazing news) but will still take a month or two to arrive via sea freight. Being early will help fight any nonsense in the freight industry that typically happens around the holiday season. Though, the industry is quite stable right now so we’re hopeful it arrives within the expected timeframe.
If your order does NOT include Knit Tanks, Stargazer Sweaters, Joggers, or Mini Tees and ONLY contains jackets, socks, caps, and/or bandana, your order may ship sooner than expected.
Socks and caps were finished earlier in October. Since they were a smaller shipment, they were shipped via air and arrived at the end of October. We’re sorting out the logistics of fulfilling orders that only include items that are now available to ship.
With our most recent launch and November and December being the busiest months for retail, our warehouse is a little swamped with the influx of orders from all their clients. We need to find a time where they have the capacity to take on more orders. Once we have confirmation from them, we’ll send out address update requests for affected orders.
No Action Required, Yet
We don’t need anything from you yet, but be on the lookout for another update in the next few weeks regarding orders that will ship early.
Next Update
The next update will come once we have sorted out fulfillment for caps, socks, jackets, and bandanas. Expect it in the next two to three weeks.
And, as promised, you can expect new updates ready by noon on the first Wednesday of every month. Any major supply chain updates or delays will warrant additional updates as necessary.
We’re so excited some of you could be getting your order soon!
See you again Wednesday, December 4th!👋🏻
