I'm not sure what to make of your comment. It sounds like a threat and I feel like it should be reported but I will wait to see if I misunderstood you.

Whoaaaaaa! Easy man. I’m just joking around having fun. It’s just a saddle. I don’t mind waiting for perfection. They doing their best. Just making laughs as we wait.

Regardless, it was inappropriate and has been removed from the site.

There is nothing wrong with anyone stating their opinions on the status of their orders, good or bad on here. As I already stated to you, whether you intended it as a joke or not, your post took it further than your opinion.

Now let's move on.

Got my notice this afternoon. Debbie told me the 23rd a couple weeks ago for # 470 an that's what happened. size 1 full kit ordered on 8/29. Will be 8 weeks by the time I have it so if they are running 4-6 now things are improving. No complaints here - glad to see their success. Looking forward to Wednesday now

Got my shipping notice today for order number 373 placed on August 18. I hope it's as comfortable for me as guys are saying. I have some long sits planned when the rut hits!

The saddles are made in batches, has nothing to do with date ordered or order number. A batch might be 15 size 1's in green. Those orders could cover a 3 weeks span of orders while the next batch could be size 2 camo. It is most effective and efficient for them to work this way. I know they had a lot of saddles done sitting there waiting on a shipment of buckles to come it. So, all they had to do was add buckles and box them up. That is why you seen the surge in shipment the past few days.

Thanks,
Boswell

Thanks Boswell. That makes perfect sense and is how quality and production are maximized. I’m super excited to try my Kestrel. Been hunting out of a TL neoprene saddle for 8 years. I have loved it. If what everyone says is true, the new one is gonna blow my mind. Lighter, smaller, more agile, more comfortable???!!! Can’t wait! I have to give a shout out to Debbie at New Tribe. I contacted her at least four times in the past 60 days and she was always pleasant to talk to and eager to help any way she could. I got my shipping notice today. I fought hard sometimes to keep the faith but they did come through after all. Hang in there everyone.
