Got to say though, Ian’s choice of Varustelaka is ready Not merchandise . It’s more “real” products with FW branding.

Not my side of the pond but Matt's company has provided me with some decent items. "Would buy again"

Very sad to hear all the bad news but also very stoked to have a forgotten weapons glencairn. 10/10 cooler than a real glencairn

Bunker Branding is what I want to hear

Merry Christmas! Looking forward to your clearance sale and also to your Varusteleka merch.

Bought an Elbonia hoodie as a birthday present for my brother; glad I got it before all the bs started with the company. Also got him the Varusteleka/FW puukko which he loves. Glad you can merchandise all through Varusteleka.

Varusteleka FTW! Everything I've got from them has been good, even the few things THEY had made in China- The stuff they had made in Finland, Norway and/or the baltics (Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia) has been even better, though. So far I've got 2 jackets, a couple of backpacks, THREE pairs of boots and a great deal of wool long underwear and socks + various web gear bits & bobs. And some military surplus stuff. Plus my newest snowshoes which are winter camo (so I really might blend in- or might set them down and never see them again until Spring?). Even with this -10°F + 20mph wind we got going on? I'm good with working outdoors (Near Hinckley MN).

Just a solitary up vote. Thanks and Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas Ian, Hope next year is much better for you. I finally showed my son you in one of your videos and he and his son agree that you and he could be twins. Keep up the great work.
Merry Christmas all

Merry Christmas to you & yours Ian . . . getting fired by your Merch company, two days before Christmas that sucks. But from what I've seen, I totally agree with you about Varusteleka, they are a very cool company. Well, in the UK Christmas day is over, so I'll wish you & yours a very Happy 2023

I would wager that the company that warehouses them will likely sell them on one of those sketchy China direct sales sites.

Well... I'm glad I bought a set of glasses when I could. Perhaps the leftovers can be sold on the sly at matches you attend?
