Looks like they are in Spain. I've heard of them, but never bought anything off them. Prices look reasonable.

I have bought from them, and thought the product well constructed, of good quality thick canvas, and well designed.
After the goods were delivered I felt comfortable with the spend.
Unfortunately, due to completely separate circumstances, the product was never brought into service so I cannot include 'long lasting' to the credits, because anything still in its packing cannot said to be fully tested.

I'd say that whatever you buy from them has a better than 50% chance of being better than a similar product sourced from or by a UK retailer.

Regards.

I've got their bikini top and I'm not entirely happy with it. No matter how tight I try to tighten it I can't stop it flapping. It's so noisy on the motorway and the more it flaps the looser it gets.  The design is quite different to a conventional one. Instead of a fabric tape across the front it uses eyelets and paracord. The straps are a different design too and have metal hooks on the end rather than the traditional strap and buckle. Loosing this pulley effect doubling the tension might be why I can't get the straps tight enough to stop the flapping?

I do like the idea of zippered side windows with blinds , that would give me more visibility turning right here as I'm forced to drive on the wrong side of the road. Steering wheel is on the correct side..

When I bought my Barbo top Javier assured me that if I had any issues I could return it. I've emailed him twice now asking to return it and so far no response.
Hopefully he's just on holiday or something but I'm not a happy customer at the moment.
