Was January 2021 a solid date?

Did you see the peaks and inner capsule for the XD?

Got in touch with Fox (Belgium) again today and they confirm mid January, i've seen the XD with inner capsule and vapour peak.

Fox is a pure 1 Man bivvy, Pioneer 150 can take 2 bedchars, or in my case 1 adult bed and 1 junior.bed, if I go for the Frontier XD I need another 2 man bivvy for when my son comes along

Seems very poor service keeping people informed as to what's going on

Cancelled my order today having discovered that they have been put back yet again. Fox/the tackle shop have been sitting on £789 of my money since October, enoughs enough. Had zero contact and zero updates. Fox didn't respond to about 6 emails. For something to be promised in November and is now looking like 'Q1' that could be anything up to March is a joke.

Now that quest tackle comes with their overwrap, I will also pass for the Frontier / Pioneer 150 and continue with the Quest bivvy for 1 extra year.

2022 my son will be 7 and will then looking for a 1.5 man bivvy

The shop, when they eventually got told by Fox.

They have now been told Q1. Which suggest to me March.

My shop have been told the 14th December like a lot of shops I think. If they aren't in next week I'm going for a Titan T1 mk2 as I'm without a shelter at the moment and not waiting until March.

Piss poor from Fox if that's the case.

A couple people on facebook seem to have been told the same today, a few people getting angry on the fox page. Apparently they have all been told 18th of January

This is a rare thing for me to do, I'm going to defend Fox... Audible gasps in the audience

Was chatting to a guy who runs a well known tackle shop (not naming) who said that empty containers have been turning up which were supposed to be full of gear, also because of the gridlock in the docking ports over here, ships are being turned away and go to Holland and come back which is another month.

The problem is the ports are flat out, shenanigans from chy-na, and the sheer demand for every fishing/non fishing product made in chy-na.

Ya ganna have to sit on your hands boys as this ain't Foxes doing.

I feel all weird and giddy standing up for Fox, Fox tackle is crap though...feels better man.

This action cannot be undone.
