I'm in the market for a new brolly and like the look of the wychwood offerings.

Does any know the difference between the mhr and the new tactical?

Also does the mhr brolly differ if bought as a system or bought separately? I'm sure I saw something about the system not having the extended skirt.

Talk to your local shop. I've had one on order with mine since launch and he told me earlier this week he is finally getting a delivery next week 😀

Emailed them this week again here is the reply.
Thanks for getting in touch.

The first drop was delayed and we've still yet to have them so you haven't missed out!

We've now had a confirming date of 08/09/20 so all going well they'll be at retailers just a few days later.

You're welcome to stay in touch for updates though.

Kind regards,

Dan Nicholson

I dropped them a message a few days ago but never got a reply.

Looks like I will be waiting till they arrive to have a gander.

Was slightly annoying, but I can accept it what with everything going on.

so all thru the Lockdown they were answering msgs and you could post comments on their page and send msgs and get quite quick replies
But now they are getting back to normal they suddenly stick two fingers up and shut off commenting and the ability to msg them

Probably the only person in the business who knows how to use a computer is off furlough and back in the warehouse

You'll probably find out it was actually someone's teenage kid who was answering you from the lazi spa

I assumed it was likely to be some poor marketing guy has either been furloughed or has covid.
