[George R. Lane]

Just wanted to see if the new cases were on there and no website. It says it is suspended.

Hi everyone. Greetings from LA. Still recovering from the most awesome taco night possible with Scott T! Thanks for all the inquiry and excitement surrounding our new Recurve Case. I’ll try to answer some of the questions here.

First - our website is down for another hour. Call us if you need something right away. 877-367-7304. It’ll be back up soon.

Case Price: it’ll retail for $275 for the Grey and $295 for the green and natural. Lots more pictures and such going into a brand new website we’ll be launching in the next 2 weeks.

Cases will be available starting around March 1st. We’ll keep everyone updated.

Exterior is water resistant - natural one is what I would call water proof because of the final coating. Others have a textile that is very water resistant but they’re not sprayed with any wp chemicals, this could be easily done but we opted not to.

Fits most mandos with a Tone Gard on. Stickers work better on natural version. Very light weight and so nice to carry on trips. Not meant to be a flight Case or compete in strength against a Calton or Hoffee. It’s meant to be an alternative to disposable zipped up foam cases.

We’ll show a lot more very soon.
All the best everyone - Adrian

Actually, it is back on line now.

Thanks for posting that Jim. I was interested in the 'weather resistance' of what looks on the face of it to be an almost 'porous' surface.
I'd be very interested to know if the new Northfield case could be available directly from the manufacturer for us folk in the UK & mainland Europe,or would we have to do the 'double shuffle' & buy one from the US at far more expense ?,
