Ellis Brigham (TSA) in Manchester have 32 Lashed in stock in UK size 12, i know because i tried some on!
Didnt buy any though as they had a very low front to them which pinched my foot, bought some Burton Hails instead.
Incidently everything im looking to buy seems to be the hardest to get hold of, cant try anything on in shops, just have to guess mostly these days |

I know what you mean about difficulties with product availability.
I bought a great pair of 686 'Smarty' Pants in Canada a couple of years ago but, have found it impossible to get hold of a new par in the UK with the result that i will buy some more when i go back to Banff in a month.
I've also had difficulties getting hold of the Dragon DX goggles i want, solution same as above.
TSA stock a few bits of 686 this season, but, i simply don't understand why they don't stock the 'Smarty' line which is absolutely miles better than the equivalent Bonfire/Westbeach product.
Four Square and Special Blend has traditionally been difficult to get hold of too in the UK, yes, you can find the odd bit here and there, but never much of a range.
As for Sessions....forget it!!
I know this won't help, but i own a pair of 2003/04 32 'Lashed' (in black!) and they're the best boots i've ever had and i'll keep them til' they fall apart.

you should go to big dreams more often... ben had loads of 686 stock at the beginning of the season, along with a decent amount of foursquare and special blend. |

They do, it just isn't on the website. Phone them and ask. (they were def in MK)
They only had the Smarty jackets though. No pants.
I ordered mine in US. |

| Of course you'll have problems getting stock if you go shopping half way through the season. Stock gets distributed from August |

well we were the first shop to bring Neff to Europe so i am sure we have something for ya.
As i always said if you cant find something mail me...i am an expert of tracking stuff down. This late in the season is hard i have to admit, but you never know....
