At Meca Sportswear, it is our goal to exceed service and fulfillment of our letter jackets.
We can usually provide as an estimated scheduled ship date of your students letter jacket.
Many factors can affect delivery.
- Current delays on our orders are due to when the school season began our factory was flooded with an unprecedented amount of orders.
- When our standard production time ranges at 8 weeks but you receive several times the amount of orders, it begins to create a back log.
- Sporadic outbreak of Covid did break out in the factory having an effect on production efficiencies and soon we found ourselves seeing the delays to be several months.
- As our factory has tried to hire more specialized labor for sewing, they have seen the same labor shortage in its specialized industry as other industries have faced.
- You may be wondering where the letter jackets are made. Our factory is in Tomah, Wisconsin. And have been proudly making letter jackets in the United State since 1969.
Why has no one reached out to me to explain these delays or current estimated shipping times?
Historically, our goal has to been to communicate our expectations up front and then offer good information as it comes in from the factory. Some information we received in late 2021 ended up being incorrect and we began to see that what we were communicating was in fact very different than the reality of the supply chain issues.
To remedy this we began updating our school contacts directly and began putting together a system for communicating clearly with our parents and students. Below you are able to see this information as we see it. This information is still not 100% accurate as even expected ship dates may vary depending on weekly factory production schedules. An order may say it is to be shipped on a certain date, but may ship out a few days early, on the day of, or several days later than expected. This is a normal part of production.
Use this information to help narrow expectations, and be on the lookout for your letter jacket.
