Thanks!




Pink paint is the devil. Unless I am the one shooting it. Then it's the best thing ever.






It's me. So, maybe?

Where are these beauties? Still locked up in customs?

[John]

Sadly, yes. Just a waiting game now.

I'll kick in $5 to bribe a customs official if that helps.

At least i got my strap

[aresfiend]

From a post on the PBRetro Facebook, apparently the snow camo masks and frames are at JT and probably shipping this week.

[John]

True story.

[pb.blaster]

Did anyone else receive their goggles, and not get the dark camo strap like they were supposed to? I was supposed to get two dark camo straps with my order and did not get any.

[aresfiend]

The dark camo straps are apparently not in yet.

[pb.blaster]

I assumed that was the case. I have not seen anything about them not being shipped with our orders. So that could completely be my fault. I just could not help myself and had to ask.

Dark Camo straps are not in yet. I am told they will be really soon though. I have a record of anyone who didn't get theirs and I'll personally be sending those.

Most of these have not shipped yet. So anyone waiting, you won't get tracking until after yours ships. They should ship in the next 7-10 days though. Messaging me won't speed yours up.

JT is shipping these and they just aren’t set up to ship retail. Normally these would’ve been on a couple of skids and out the door to regular customers in minutes.

Instead, it’s 1000+ different small Snow Camo shipments. 750 masks plus a lot of people got just the camo frames after the masks sold out. So it is a crazy amount more work picking orders and manually shipping to people who aren’t their usual customers. So shipping takes time.

To make things worse, they've also agreed to ship all of Fight Club's goggles, all of Team USA's, all of Mutiny's and all of the USA lenses (since those shipped without lenses). That's ~4,000 retail packages or so when they aren't designed to ship retail. Then all of those goggles showed up at the same time.

And this extra work is just so you guys get them a little faster.

Thanks for the update. You are the man! Appreciate you taking the time to get back to us. Thank you for doing all you are doing under the circumstances we are all going through. Also thanks for what you are doing with the JT name also. Must say, these snow goggles look so good.

[f8al]

Got my mask and the extra frame today. Can't thank John enough for all the diligent work amid the mountain of uncertainty, delays and holdups. Super glad I picked one of these bad boys up!

[asa4575]

Are you guys getting tracking numbers or are these just showing up on your doorstep? Because uh, I’m getting a little worried.

Thanks, I missed that post and I don’t have Facebook®.

[Mr Idiot Box]

So these are shipping with the camo frames as well as the complete mask with the white frames? So the Only thing we are waiting on is the dark strap. Or are the Camo frames shipping separate?

[Fat Joe]

Just got mine in. They look awesome.

[Oc_rage]

The resale market on these flex's and flex's in general is out of control. amazing what X-Factor did making flex's hip again. literally every d5-d3 team has a handful of people rocking flex's now.

bunch of suckers paying over $70 for them though if we're all being honest lmao

[AliasDave05]

People used to make fun of me for only only proflexes the last 18 years, because it's the only mask to fit my big old head, and now I guess I'm agg AF now

QFT. The lens system may be less convenient, but no mask I've tried beats the flex for comfort. Hopefully with the resurgence of flex popularity JT will start selling foam again so our older flexs can keep going.

John, or anyone with knowledge about the topic, where is the best place to keep an eye out for new JT releases? I haven't been on Facebook in years and haven't been as frequent on the forums lately, so I missed out on the snow camos, xfactor, etc. Also, has JT revealed their long term plan for the Proflex line? It looks like they have reproduced a lot of the rarer straps that people cherished, and hoarded, over the years. I'm curious if they'll be bringing back IZE, EPS, etc.
