With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

Inwild Meidjo 3 SR Telemark Bindings.Superb Lightweight Pin Tech NTN Telemark Bindings, Excellent Skiing & Touring Functionality.Weight: 0.85 KG per pairThe newly updated Telemark Pin Tech NTN binding has been refined to improve ease of use and reliability.In 2022/23 season The M Equipment have rebranded as Inwild but they maintain their high standards of design and customer service.Our number one recommendation for Backcountry free heel skiers, The Inwild Meidjo 3 are a super light NTN Telemark ski touring binding which cleverly combine a pin tech toe piece with the NTN telemark binding attachment system to produce a binding which offers the ski performance and control associated with NTN and the touring functionality and weight of pin tech ski touring bindings.
With an improved flex plate that won't snap, a new pin tech toe that is stronger and easier to clear of snow and ice the Meidjo 3 is more robust and easier to use than ever before.
They can now be stepped in to without priming the binding which is one less thing to do before you can ski!The recent updates have gone a long way towards eliminating the problems with snow packing and icing, some careful use of lubricant sprays, grease or anti icing products will help in difficult conditions though.Though these are an excellent touring binding we have many customers that use them purely as piste bindings and even race bindings as they prefer the way the Meidjo bindings ski and the adjustments that can be made to binding stiffness and release tension.Designed and made in France, the Meidjo 3 is the creation of Pierre Mouyade who after a few years of research and design brought his first binding to market in the 2014 / 15 winter season.With some design tweaks along the way the Meidjo 3 is a revolution in telemark touring binding systems.The clever combination or the pin tech toe and NTN attachment under the boot works very well, both systems use a lateral heel release and by using a spring loaded mechanism, the release tension can be finely adjusted and is separate to the stiffness of the binding springs. This means the skier can set the binding tension stiff with the release settings low or visa versa. We also find that the pin tech toe attachment releases more smoothly than other NTN systems that clamp the toe lug as there is less friction.Free Pivot touring functionality means that you have the same natural pivot point and ease of movement that you get from a pin tech alpine touring binding, plus zero lift weight which makes skinning much easier than when using other NTN bindings.The bindings come with 2 sets of springs and have 5 increments of binding tension so you can fine tune how stiff and powerful the bindings feel. We have found for people coming from cable type bindings the single spring is the best place to start, for powerful skiers and big skis you are probably best starting with both sets of springs installed, there are additional stiff springs which can be bought too. Springs are easily changed so best to experiment to find the tension which suits you.A featherlite 0.85KG per pair of bindings (size small) makes the Meidjo 3 are a great choice for long days of touring.2 Climbing position heights (35mm and 55mm).There are additional ski crampon slots available which fit Dynafit ski crampons and there is a brake option though the ski brake and crampon slot don't really work together and the brake does make it more awkward to step into the toe of the binding.Compatible with all NTN telemark boots that feature pin tech fittings at the toe.There is an optional heel piece which allows the heel to be fixed should you choose to ski Alpine however this requires pin tech fittings in the heel of the boots and both Scarpa and Scott Sports have removed the heel pin tech fitting from their telemark boots.We stock the Meidjo 3 and some of the accessories and we also have the mounting jig for binding mounts.
