Important news on antron fleece

[FISH'N'WOLFE]

Someone may have some pre-dyed Antron to donate, but if you purchase it from a regular retailer you have to dye it yourself. It only comes in white, always has. It's really not that hard to dye.

Dye

I'm not so good at not causing irreversible damage to things. I once burned a hole in my parents' living room carpet and shifted everything in the room over a few inches to conceal it. But if there's a simple, relatively-clean way to do it, I could probably give it a try. And how do I go about purchasing the white stuff?

Well, Georgia Stage is your best bet I would say. You can E-Mail Kathy, who runs GA Stage and started this thread.

Good Morning All:

Just wanted to clarify....I don't run GA Stage. I simply am in charge of our Antron Fleece.....and by the way today is the last day to order original Antron Fleece. So, call 800-211-8217 or email info@gastage.com if you don't want to be left out.

All,

Has anyone sampled this new fabric? Any news yet on exactly how good or bad the new material is?

Thanks

Antron Replacement

I am expecting samples of this new fabric in the next week. What I know is this....they are working to give it the same properties as the Antron i.e. stretch and seam cover but that could take several attempts. I will be sending out samples to those who have asked. If you are interested please email me.

Does anyone know if Hampshire Mills is going to be the company producing this fabric? Is the fleece all gone now? I'd hate to pay $22 plus shipping a yard on ebay. Yikes!

yes hampshire mills is the company producing it, they are the only manufactuer of Antron Flece, and they are making the samples, i saw a very early version of it, that pretty much sucked, but they assured us that it was the worst sample that we would see since it was a very early experiment,

as for buying this stuff on ebay, if people did start selling it thier , you can bet the price would go much higheer than 22 dollars, since it is a discontiued item,

As ravage said Hampshire Textiles is the only source of the fabric but I am expecting the "last" shipment in the next few days. All of this order has been reserved for customers but I have a waiting list in case there is any left over. I will also be receiving the samples of the new fleece in several days. If you would like to be on the waiting list and/or receive samples please email me. info@gastage.com
