Update #6: FINAL SHIPPING DATES

All of us at TAKVA are pumped and psyched to begin the fulfilment process next week for our Prayer Parka backers!

Please note that we will not be able to reply to your enquiries as much as we would have been able to, but we will try our best. Hence we encourage you to sort out all your details with us prior to our shipping, to avoid any delays.

We have sent out an email to you regarding your order and shipping details. If there are any missing information (size, contact number etc.) we will not be able to ship your products, so please confirm with us beforehand. We will be delaying the shipping your orders by a week as we will need to send out individual emails to request for your information.

Also, if you have not confirmed your orders, please note the date of shipment is on 26th July and we will bear no responsibility for lost/wrong parcels due to incorrect details after your order has been shipped.

Here are the scheduled dates for shipment:

22-23 July: Arrival of Prayer Parkas at our warehouse

24-25 July: Shipping of confirmed orders & Express orders

26 July: Shipping of unconfirmed orders (but with all details completed)

29 July: Emails will be sent to remaining backers with incomplete details

30 July and after: Rest of the orders (depends on the date of your reply)

Please have patience with us during this time of shipping as our team is working day and night to ensure the best service and that your parcels get to you accurately and safely.

Looking forward to you receiving your parcels!!

Updates as of 15 June- Alhamdulillah, details sorted!

Salaam to our dear Backers,

Latest estimated shipment date: July 2019

This is what we have sorted out since our last update:

  • As of today, all the Prayer Parka™ patterns have been cut from the bare fabric sheets. Meaning that what will happen from now onwards is the sewing. Alhamdulillah!
  • Inner hood- our last sample quality check failed as the inner hood didn't function well with the outer hood due to a production error, so we have instructed the team to take extra care not to miss the extra seam lines which make them function as expected.
  • We also sorted out the sleeve lengths to make sure that they are comfortable enough for solat and doing wudhu.
  • Care labels- we've upped the quality to satin care labels. Small details, but high on the satisfaction rating!
  • Drawstring Bags- we've changed some design aspects so that the drawstring bags will last through the entire Prayer Parka™'s lifespan.
  • Packaging production is also completed!

And with that marks the final detailed checks, and the production team will take around 2 more weeks to complete the sewing (inshaAllah!). Then, the products will be shipped to our fulfillment center for mass order fulfillment. 

Thank you for your immense patience!

Production taking a little longer than planned...

Salaam to our beloved backers,

Ramadan Kareem to all of you! We once again thank you for your support for our Prayer Parka and thank you for your unwavering patience all these while.

We would like to update that we have finished all testing (on comfort, size variations and accessories) and are scheduled to receive the final pre-production samples this week from Turkey, inshaAllah. We certainly didn't want you to receive a product that is failing on comfort, that's why we repeatedly made sure that the dress remained comfortable at all positions during salah. There were many rounds of prototypes sent during this time, that's for sure!

Our accessories are also in-house, and the Prayer Parka LUXE™ is being produced as we speak. The fabric for the Prayer Parka LITE™ is coming in this week as well, so we will commence production for it as well.

It is quite regular that as a startup we often face setbacks and delays while trying to find the right partners and suppliers to work with for our innovative products, and this project has met its fair share. Alhamdulillah we have sorted through them, but as much as we would have loved to ship you the Prayer Parka™ during this blessed month of Ramadan (especially for terawih!), by Allah's Will it was not to be, and our shipment will unfortunately be delayed slightly by a month. We seek your kindest understanding on this matter.

On a separate note, we have attached our last size measurement chart due to the changes made to our pattern for comfort purposes.  Please refer to the chart below:

One thing to note is that the length of the parka has been extended and standardized across ALL sizes to be 150cm. We made it long so that we can make sure it will be covering the feet during solat, but if you wish to shorten them, you may ask your local tailor or even alter it yourself to suit your own height requirements. :)


We once again apologize for the slight delay in shipment dates and thank you for your patience and trust.


Wishing all of you a very blessed Ramadan!


Wasalaam,
