We are back again for round 2!

By popular demand we are rerunning this mat in the rough texture option  :thumb:

Check out your local vendor in the original post which has been updated with R2 details

Unfortunately Protozoa still hasn't created the listing for R2 even with only 5 days left in the GB so they are no longer a vendor for this run. I'll try and work something out for UK customers but I'm really sorry for the disappointment in that regard.

I've spoken with Jae and Prototypist will have some in stock units available for UK customers to purchase. Hopefully this will help out a tad.

So who originally designed this? Because I found this same deskmat on a website called Alt Custom - https://altcustoms.com/products/retro-cars-mat-mousepad
