Initial production did not go as planned. I'll keep the thread updated as we move along, there's still plans for testing a white synthetic knot (that looks natural). It may not be the imitation goat hair as listed, but we'll see how things work out in the next week or two.

Sorry to hear about the setback. Hopefully things work out some other way.

Quick update on the White Synthetic:

Still working with the manufacturer to get a sample tested, the initial one did not have suitable backbone.

Update on the Tuxedo:

Ahead of schedule on this one. By the end of next week they should be available for regular sale, and preorders should be shipped (barring any unexpected delays).

Nice work with the Rubbersets, and nice to see that you have a fan-shaped knot option up! I have seen a few people here on the forum asking for fan-shaped synthetics recently, as options out there have been anything but plentiful. Way to fill a void! Will you be getting more of the fans in the future? (I noticed you only had two for the time being.)

Looks very nice. Any update on the white fibers? Also do i understand correctly that the black and white will be different fibers (not just the same fiber dyed differently)?

No plans currently. I can see why there are little options for fan shaped synthetics though, the shape looks very 2 dimensional (see listing pics). Thats the main reason it won't become a part of my lineup

Yep, should be different fibers. Still in testing phase with the all white, i'll report back when I have some additional information.

Thanks for the input. It’s good to see that the fan-shape synthetic at least is out there, and perhaps could be revisited, should demand really begin to increase at some point.
