BikeBiz Bicycle and cycling retail news
Fresh faced Tasmanian brand Henty is seeking UK bike shops to take on its growing suit carrier range.
Launched around 18 months ago, the Wingman carries business suits, dresses, shirts, iPads and accessories. Thanks to ribs within, the Wingman rolls into a compact, portable, all-weather bag.
The Wingman comes in four colours – blue, green, grey and lavender – and in two sizes – standard and compact.
Companion product is the Hold’Em, coming in four sizes: small (40L), medium (70L), large (88L) and X large (153L) and in blue, green, grey and red.
Director Chris Wilkes told BikeBiz at The London Bike Show:
"We’re in a selection of stores at the moment, largely in London and also online with Evans Cycles. While we’re selling direct too while we’re building brand awareness, we’re now keen to get in into more stores and we’re looking for interested IBDs.
"Which we’re also backing with further show appearances at The Triathlon Show at Sandown Park and at the NEC Cycle Show in September."
Henty is named after a remote region on the coast of Tasmania. More products are in the offing from the firm.
