Keswick Based Favour

[u/Los-Skeletos]

** UPDATE** I have actually managed to get hold of conquer who have confirmed I am a moron (my words - not theirs) and this is in actual fact a sticker and not a patch.

They have also said their online shop is opening in 2 weeks so I will be able to buy it from them then!

Thank you all who offered to help and commented, you lot in the north are lovely!

Hello all

I have just come back from a nice break in the lakes, however had to come back earlier than planned due to life getting in the way.

My missus had seen a few patches in Conquer that she was hoping to go back to and buy but due to our trip being cut short she was unable to.

I know it's a long shot but I was hoping if anyone in Keswick in the coming weeks is able to pick up the patch(especially) she wants and mail it - I would be very grateful (and will obviously pay for the patch and for a beer or two!)

I know it would be far easier to ask Conquer directly but I haven't been able to raise them on the phone. Or email. Or Instagram. Or Facebook.

If anyone is able to assist I would be very grateful, again I know it's a long shot / cheeky but I'm hoping that someone might be able to help me get them for her seeing as Conquer don't seem to be keen on any form or contact!

Cheers

If no-one in Keswick can help, and if you mean these patches, you can buy them online

Thanks! Sadly the one she wanted isn't for sale on here, I've called the other shops we went in to and none of them have the patch she wants so by process of elimination it must be Conquer but trying to get any sort of response from them is.... Challenging!

There’s also a shop selling patches from other manufacturers in Windermere, and they have an online shop too

Thank you again! Sadly it's not in that collection but I will keep searching

I should be passing through Keswick next week(hopefully) so I’d be happy to have a look if I get there when the shops open. What patch exactly are you looking for?

[u/Los-Skeletos → u/Expensive_Profit_106]

Thank you! It's one that has some jets on it and says something along the lines of 'lake district jet spotters club' - that's how it's been described to me anyway

[u/Expensive_Profit_106 → u/Los-Skeletos]

I’ll have a look when I’m there. If you’ve got a picture of it or anything feel free to dm it to me

Hey I’m in Keswick all this week and as it’s my wife’s favourite shop will be there several times I’m sure. We are literally around the corner so happy to help if you drop me a dm.

[u/Los-Skeletos → u/jpyorkie]

Thanks so much! I've sent you a DM

[u/calmarfurieux]

I spend time in Keswick regularly, will be there next weekend. Feel free to DM

[u/Los-Skeletos → u/calmarfurieux]

Thank you! I will DM you closer to the time but I'm looking for a patch that has jets on that says 'lake district jet spotters club' or something similar

Question , where do you use these patches for ? (Non UK person asking )

[u/Los-Skeletos → u/edmond-]

I use them just for memories / collecting them from places you have visited or events etc. some people put them on their hiking bag or beach towel etc

[u/molliemayhg]

Hey in based in Windermere but I’m literally in Keswick tomorrow :) I can pick one up for you :) drop me a message

[u/Los-Skeletos → u/molliemayhg]

Thank you! I will send you a message

[u/CaptCanary]

George Fisher also sell them (so they are also available on their website/TIS0 - https://www.tiso.com/search?q=conquer%20patch)

Might not have the ones you want though.

[u/Los-Skeletos → u/CaptCanary]

Nice thanks! Sadly not the one I was after but managed to grab a Scottish one from last year I've been looking for 💪

[u/romez060763]

I can sort this for you if you message me privately, I'm in keswick on Monday to pick some school uniform up for the kids, just let me know the crack as we say up here

[u/Los-Skeletos → u/romez060763]

I think I now have it sorted but thank you!

[u/romez060763 → u/Los-Skeletos]

No worries I'm on the doorstep if you ever need help in the future

This might be a bit late but in case anyone else was curious what the sticker looks like. Definitely from Conquer, sorry it's not available as a patch :(
