Lab Notes

I’m with Si (and the others) on this. I’ve been in contact since last November, but didn’t get an “in stock” email, so I missed the “June” batch; now the price is up and going upper.
Is there an Alpkit jacket with synthetic fill?

Hi David

Jim’s message was written in January when the initial rush was taking our website by storm.  We finally sold out of the men’s jackets in February/March time but, for the first time ever, we will be getting some more in the summer.  They will be available in Lego Blue and Black and should be arriving some time in June.  If you would like to be notified when they arrive, please add yourself to the stock notification list online at http://www.alpkit.com/support/product_updates/

Thanks

Jenni

Does this mean there won’t be any new Filo jackets until the end of 2010? Would have loved a Filo for the chilly alpine nights in may and beginning of june..

I totally agree with your attitude to substainable business. So many people nowadays are just out to make a quick buck, unfortunately the banks are like this too, so they’ve often been the ones to get most financial banking. Lets hope recession changes this model, if it does, you guys will hit the ground running!

On a different topic, reading through some of the older notes, I saw one idea was a synthetic bag. Is something along the lines of fibre- pile realistic? As more of a bushcraft-y person I’m thinking of dreich Scottish mornings where you wake up in your bivvy and think ‘this cannae be good for me doon’. Its not so much rain as just wet air.

Cheers

Hi Scotty and Si

I’m sorry to hear that you didn’t receive the stock notification emails.  They were sent out as promised as soon as the stock arrived.  I cannot see your email addresses from your posts so cannot check our customer service inbox to see if you have already emailed us about this problem, however if you haven’t and would like us to follow this up, please email me at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)

Understand your situation, but as said in a previous email what happened to my notification that the filos were back in stock. I have missed out now and will now have to shell out another £75 and buy a ME Lightline instead.

Hi guys, when are you going to bring out Filo+? A filo with a waterproof outer shell would really go down well in the UK given our damp wet conditions.

Great kit at fantastic prices

Understand the ordering problem but the promised e-mail when they were in stock never happened. Been waiting since last September so a bit frustrated.

yeah no worries, great kit!
