Availability of Tuff n Lite Cut Suits
All:
After attempting to negotiate for over a year with the manufacturer of Tuff n Lite for purchase of material to make cut suits out of, I regret to inform you that Security Race Products will not be offering Tuff n Lite Cut Suits in the foreseeable future. This is very disappointing to us, since we have had great customer feedback regarding the quality and comfort of Tuff n Lite suits; however the supplier’s inability to supply us with material in a timely fashion, combined with their proposed new pricing (which was an increase of approximately 350 percent over what they had charged us previously) has forced us to make the extremely difficult decision to not offer Tuff n Lite Suits for the indefinite future.
If material becomes readily available and costs come down to a level that it makes economic sense for both SRP and our customers, we will again offer the Tuff n Lite, however at this time we cannot see that event happening in the near term.
We are hoping that we will still be able to offer the Tuff n Lite Socks and Gloves. Please stay tuned to our website for availability and pricing on those items.
We recommend that in place of Tuff n Lite, customers consider our new Kevlar Steel material. While it is not the same as Tuff n Lite, it is far superior in comfort, fit and protection level to the Kevlar material we have offered in the past; and is priced in the “Kevlar” range, providing the best protection available for the cost.
Thank you for your understanding,
