Anybody been yet?

Wondering if they have the complete catalogue of SAKs and stuff or whether it might be more of a fashion type shop.

May pop in when I go to see the mighty Warrington Wolves at Wembley in a couple of weeks.

As I understand it, it's mostly fashion stuff.  There are SAKs but not the full range. :cry:  They will order in anything you want though. ::)
