Agreed. I'm finally getting close to my order date and they stop updating. Typical luck.
 
Just hang tight, ordered my kit (plus some items as well) July 11- just got email my order has shipped!

Edit - and mine is a Large
Edit - Looking at the order, the 2 SYS ES's and Recliner are back ordered. Can live with that though.
Maybe that means the Recliner will be Gen 2 version :--)

I’m not expecting mine for another couple of weeks but yeah I was really looking forward to an update too.
 
Nope, I was really hoping that there was going to be a major jump this week. Only 6 days progress on larges in two and a half weeks. I’m staying patient though, I know they have their hands full.
 
Update is in but either the dates are wrong or they didn’t really ship any saddles!! With the big update about catching up and only 4 week wait time as of now I’m hoping it’s a misprint.

No change on XLs. Unfortunately that’s what I have on order.

I really hope that after all this waiting that I ordered the right dang size. I’m 6’1 210 and ordered a L. But I’ve got that noassattol disorder so I’m hoping large was the way to go.

Sounds about right. I had one and sold it like an idiot.

Yeah, only 3 days progress on the Predator is all that really changed.
 
The FB post for those that don't FB:
*SHIPPING UPDATE*
Big stuff happening this week at Tethrd. We have been busting our butts over the past 8-9 months getting our manufacturing sorted out to keep up with the crazy demand from all you saddle maniacs. We've hired more people and found new manufacturers. We have been absolutely LASER FOCUSED on decreasing wait times. We’re finally seeing some of that hard work pay off.
However, every time we increase our production...you guys buy more stuff! STOP!!!! (jk, don't stop...I quit my job for this so I'd be kinda screwed).
HOWEVER, the Great and Powerful Ernie Power has solved our accessory problems.
EVERY SINGLE back-ordered SYS Hauler will be shipped by next week. We have GEN 2 Recliners in stock. We also have our yet to be released HYS Strap and Predator Pack in stock and ready to ship. We’ll turn those two new products live in the shop next week...be on the lookout for those. We dropped some teaser pics in the “Saddle Hunter” facebook group. If you’re not there, you might want to join.
We couldn't source enough local sew shops to do it all. So instead we made the hard decision to have our US sew shops focus on the Mantis. This meant we weren’t making accessories fast enough. We moved the accessories overseas. That was the only way to keep up with demand. This is going to end up being a giant step forward for us and we couldn't be more excited to get you your gear FASTER - MUCH MUCH FASTER.
Also if you haven't noticed, we've been crushing our wait times like Jordan over the Pistons, like Michael Phelps over the swimming pool, like Mike Tyson over...well everyone.
We’ve knocked it down from a 12 week wait time to about 4 weeks if you ordered today. Here is this week’s update. We’ve shipped orders thru the following dates.
8/30 Update
M - thru 7/24
L - thru 7/10
XL thru 7/16
Platforms - 8/4 but are going out with saddles from July first.
We actually have more capacity coming on next week. That means in September we’ll be able to catch up even more.
We’re getting there fellas. Thanks for your patience. Thanks for your support. And Thanks for being a part of the Tethrd Nation. We don’t exist without you guys.

To say that I am frustrated is an understatement, when I ordered it said allow 6 weeks for processing, now it appears it will be 8 or more. On (8/13) the larges shipped through 7/4, then a week of no larges being sent out (8/23), to this week (8/30) orders through 7/10 a total of 6 days worth of larges over a three week period have been shipped!
 
After the shipping fail experienced on my predator, I have held out on my Mantis order. I really like it, but am hesitant about handing over money at this point. I’ve opted to stick with my sit drag for the season.

What gets me is the messaging here is we’re killing it this week and you’ll have your stuff in no time!!! Then the posted progress is next to nothing. I’ll just play pretend too and only say that rubs me the wrong way.
