MERCHANDISE

Available Range: Club-Produced & Kelme-Produced

As well as the current range of specially-produced items available to order at wembley.wealdstone-fc.com, kit partner Kelme are offering a decorated FA Trophy match shirt, walk-out jacket and other final-specific products.

Kelme advise that FA Trophy Final text will be printed, not embroidered, due to the fabrics involved, for a crisper look and feel.

Check out their Stones' online store now to browse and purchase: wealdstonefcstore.co.uk/collections/official-fa-trophy-final-range.

Kelme will fulfil items by post, with their usual range of time-scaled options available.

Collection & Postage

Club-produced merchandise will be available for collection and sale at The Vale - where all stock will be picked & packed by staff and volunteers.

Postage is being offered by exception only (please state requirements at online checkout).

The club's bespoke range is currently in production, with estimated delivery times varying between now and the first few days of May.

Merch collection will begin at The Vale from 10.00am on Saturday May 9 and will then continue every day (see times below) up to and including matchday morning.

After all collection orders have been readied, orders where postage has been agreed will then be processed and dispatched.
