New F-15, F-111 and U2 Aircraft Amongst Latest Embroidered Aircraft Designs

Following a number of personalised aircraft requests, I have added  some new aircraft types and Squadron options to the Classic Military Aircraft clothing range. This update includes the first helicopter – the Apache AH1.

New Aircraft Types

The latest aircraft types added are –

  • U-2S
  • Apache AH-1

New Squadron Options

  • 460 Sqn Lancaster – Coded AR-A
  • 492nd FS F-15E – Coded LN
  • 79th TFS F-111E – Coded UH

Recent Personalised Aircraft Designs

Just recently I have had some great personalised requests including – 

  • 609 Sqn Typhoon
  • 103 Sqn Lancaster
  • 460 Sqn Lancaster
  • 48th FW OC F-15E

In turn, these designs will be recoded with personalisation’s removed and added as Squadron options to these existing aircraft types.

How To Buy These New Aircraft Designs

I’m still breaking each aircraft type down into its own single product for each type of clothing. In the meantime, all of the new options can be ordered from the main Personalised Aircraft Clothing Section and selected as an option on the dropdown list.

There you can choose your aircraft type and Squadron and request any personalised wording or new Squadron options.

Exclusive Class 50 50008 Merchandise

I am extremely pleased to announce that, with a huge thanks to Jason Hall, GDMK Images has been granted exclusive rights to produce Class 50 50008 Thunderer merchandise in Hanson and Hall Rail Adventure colours!!

This is a fantastic opportunity, as Jason has allowed all profits generated from the 50008 sales to be very generously donated to supporting our 2 Class 50 locos, 50021 Rodney and 50026 Indomitable.

What Hanson and Hall Class 50 50008 Merchandise is Available?

Lets get to business then, in short there will initially be 2 designs available –

  • Our popular Data Panel Desings
  • A side Profile Drawing

Over time I’m hoping to be able to offer more designs.

These 2 designs will be available on our entire range of gift products from keyrings and bottle openers, right through the range to clothing!

You will see products going live over the weekend as we roll out the various products and designs.

[ux_products auto_slide=”5000″ equalize_box=”true” products=”12″ orderby=”rand” tags=”12700″]

50021 and 50026 Set For A Great Year!

2021 is set to be a very exciting year for our locos, 50021 and 50026.

Anticipation is high for the return to service of both locos. Coming with this return to service, is the ever present need to raise funds to facilitate and support this.

Please help us by taking advantage of this exclusive arrangement!

Thanks and stay safe!

50021 Hip Flask

No products were found matching your selection.

Hip Flasks Added to the 50021 and 50026 Range

I am adding some Hip Flasks to the 50021 and 50026 store.

Our Hip Flaks have been really popular on the stall and have not been available online until today.

The Stainless Steel Hip Flasks have a 7oz capacity and feature a with a faux leather wrap. Printed on the leather wrap are two initial designs –

  • A side profile drawing of the cab with the loco number and nameplate
  • A data panel design also including number and nameplate

Each Hip flask include a filler funnel & luxury gift box.

In the cab profile range, you can buy 50021 in large logo livery and 50026 in either NSE original or NSE Revised.

Initial Hip Flask Designs

What Other Hip Flask Designs Are Coming?

Shortly, I will be adding other popular 50021 and 50026 designs including

  • My Names Not Dave
  • 50021 and 50026 in other liveries
  • Option to create any Class 50 Data Panel and Number

 

Where Can I Get These Class 50 Hip Flasks?

At the moment, the best place to get these is through the online shop.

If you were lucky enough to get a ticket for the Thanet Thunderer, then drop by the buffet as we will have our stall there with a number of these available.

As for railway galas, I still havent booked anything formally yet – I’m waiting to see what arrangements are available at the various locations and the effect any ongoing social distancing and the like will have on the viability of taking the stall to galas.

I hope you like these designs – let me know your thoughts and shout out any ideas you might like to see added!

Stay safe!

Camo Hoodies and New Fleece Colours Added

Camo Hoodies and New Fleece Colours Added

We’ve had numerous enquiries about stocking camo coloured garments as well as a Military Green coloured fleeces.

After some research and testing we have found some appropriate garments and added them to the range.

Camo Hoodies

Made by the same manufacturer as our existing popular hoodies, these camo variants look and feel great.

  • Military Green Camo

  • Black and Grey Camo

They are available now as an option on all our embroidered designs.

New Fleece Colours


We have had many enquiries for a Military Green fleece, and following the launch of the Desert Storm 30th Anniversary commemorartive range, we got a lot of requests for a Sand coloured Fleece to complement the designs.

We are really pleased to announce we have added these two colours to the range as well..

Although made by a different manufacturer to our existing popular fleeces, these two new fleece colours are virtually identical in spec and comfort.

They are available now as an option on all our embroidered designs.

Both these new garments are extremely comfortable to wear and get great feedback.

More New Garment Types on the Way

We get many requests for Bomber Jackets and Rugby Jerseys. We have sourced and tested several different types of these garments and have selected one of each type that embroiders and wears well.

We are making some up as stock for the Headcorn Airshow where you will be able to see the quality up close.

They will be available online in the coming weeks.

Let me know what you think of the new hoodies and fleeces and drop me a line if there is a garment type you think we should be stocking!

Thanks for reading and stay safe!

A-10 Warthog, B-52 BUFF and F-15E Strike Eagle Now Standalone Aircraft Types

81st FS A-10 Navy Red Hoodie

A-10 Warthog, B-52 BUFF and F-15E Strike Eagle Now Standalone Aircraft Types

I have started to add the aircraft types featured in our Desert Storm 30th Anniversary commemorative clothing range to the Classic Military Aircraft clothing range.

You now have the option to buy these iconic aircraft types as both a Desert Storm commemorative garment and a Classic Military Aircraft garment.

If you haven’t seen the CMA range, the design features the aircraft name and service dates. Check them out as there is in excess of 30 aircraft types now!

New Additions include the following types and squadron options – 

A-10

  • 511th TFS from Alconbury in Camo colour scheme with sharks mouth nose.
  • 81st FS in standard grey.

F-15

  • 335th TFS F-15E from Seymour Johnson

B-52

  • 806th BW B-52G in Desert Storm colour scheme
  • 96th BW B-52H in standard grey.
[ux_product_categories style=”normal” columns=”3″ ids=”12478,12480,12554″]

Desert Storm Variants Added to Existing Aircraft Types

I did several aircraft types that already existed in the Classic Military Aircraft range in Desert Storm colours for the Commemorative Range.

The following aircraft are now options in the CMA range – 

  • 16 Sqn Tornado ZA447 ‘Mig Eater’
  • 12 Sqn Buccaneer 
  • 6 Sqn Jaguar
[ux_product_categories style=”normal” columns=”3″ ids=”12578,12421,12225″]

Request New Aircraft Types or Squadron Colours 

Each aircraft type on the Classic Military Aircraft Range provides an option for you to request the design in new Squadron colours or markings for a small additional charge.

If you would like an aircraft type not currently available then use the products in the Personalised Aviation Clothing range. These product allow you to request new aircraft types and also the provide the facility to personalise your design.

Aircraft Types in Progress

I’m currently finishing off the Victor in Desert Storm colours and a 1960s Camo scheme.

Following these two designs I have the following to work through –

  • Australian F-111 to add to the existing 494th TFS design already available
  • B-17
  • B-24
  • P-51
  • P-47
  • Hawk

Classic Military Aircraft Range Overhaul

I’m also in the process of overhauling the way the CMA range is presented. Originally, all designs were available under a single product, with each aircraft as a drop-down option.

Following feedback, I am breaking each aircraft type down into separate products grouped together in their own Classic Military Aircraft Category.

This process will take a little while longer, so if you cant find a particular product under the aircraft type category, every aircraft type is available as a drop down option in the personalised aircraft range.

Thanks for reading and please let me know your thoughts on these aircraft clothing designs!

Stay safe

Gary

Keyrings Fridge Magnets and Badges Now Available Online

If you have seen our stall at a Railway Gala or Airshow, you will know we have a huge range of small pick up gifts for sale. These have proved extremely popular with those who have seen them.

Traditionally I havent stocked these online, reserving them for our shows. With the loss of the 2020 show season, I have had loads of enquiries from customers asking how they can buy them and enquiring about any new designs we might have.

In response to these requests, I have slowly began adding the following smaller gifts to the online store.

[ux_products auto_slide=”5000″ equalize_box=”true” cat=”12283,6472,12091″ orderby=”rand”]

Supporting Class 50 Locos 50021 & 50026

We host the fundraising products for these two fine Class 50 locos.

Many of the fundraising gifts are of the smaller variety and havent been available. Coupled with the Covid restrictions on events, 2020 has been a difficult fund raising year.

Many of the newly added smaller gifts feature 50021 and 50026 so your purchase will help these two great locos out.

Remember, profits from everything class 50 themed sold on this site go to 50021 & 50026 as well!!

[ux_products auto_slide=”5000″ equalize_box=”true” cat=”12289,12290,12322,5311″ orderby=”rand”]

Still To Come

We have a number of other smaller gifts still to add including

Is there a particular gift you saw on our stall that you would like us to make available online – let us know!! 

Thanks for reading and stay safe
