You know, it's funny. My biggest fear wasn't the prospect of a 6-9 month wait...it was more about waiting that time and getting the wrong specs. Going by the pictures, everything seems to be fine. A little concerned about the height of the pad (I ordered 32+3 coming off a 32+2.5 20.1) - they look a little short. There is a mistake though, I specced blue straps and they gave me red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chile57 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 @Chenner29 I'm with you. Any more when I order custom I'm just resigned to the fact that something will be wrong - the hope is just that it ends up being something minor that I can live with - I'm not big on confrontation necessarily (but then again - I'm not big on getting boned when I'm spending money either). I've had a custom paint job with my name spelled wrong, a custom set quoted at 5 weeks that took 17 and were replete with errors: one piece cuff instead of two, logos instead of no logos, single break instead of double break... I could go on but I'm having flashbacks. You just really can never provide too much detail when custom ordering (and having trust in who you're ordering with/from goes a long way too). Really the long(er) waits just magnify the anxiety while one waits that things are getting off the rails - so I sympathize with you whole heartedly. Hopefully the camera angle is deceptive on the sizing and they work out for you... and it doesn't stick in your craw that the straps aren't blue.

I've got some good ones too I'm still (technically) waiting for a set from Dave at Vortek dating back to 2003. Reversed the payment to him 6 months after ordering I had a set of Vaughn V4s come in once with 6 straps and 8 buckles Don't get me started on paint, I've worked with two big name guys who wouldn't do mockups before painting and didn't get what I wanted 3 hours ago, coopaloop1234 said: Honestly, I think the red straps are better.

The elastic is looser than that...we'll see when they get in, it's supposed to create more tension to help the pad snap back up faster when you regain your feet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like a larger surface area which makes it so comfortable and I like thicker materials because I sweat a lot.
