The HalliGear Tactical and HalliCustom shop.

A shop offering personalised clothing and military equipment will soon open its doors in Ripon.

Owners Victoria and Richard Halliday told the Stray Ferret their businesses, HalliCustom and HalliGear Tactical respectively, will both operate at the High Skellgate unit as well as online.

Ms Halliday, who runs HalliCustom, said people can shop for all things personalised at the new store. 

This includes t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies, hats, dressing gowns and slippers, Ms Halliday said, as well as glassware, keyrings, coasters, mouse mats and jigsaws.

She added:

We will also offer a personalisation service. People can pick an item to be personalised, choose a design from our pre-printed range or a photo of your own, and then watch it be made.

Ms Halliday said people can also bring in work clothing, school uniforms and sports kit to be personalised, as well as outfits for stag and hen dos. 

She told the Stray Ferret the site will also be used for children’s parties and seasonal events:

This will include designing and colouring T-shirts of the children’s choice. They can also use our party bag pick and mix station.

In the coming months, we will also be offering Halloween and Christmas craft sessions.

Richard and Victoria Halliday

The couple, who both launched their businesses this year, said they chose to take on the premises as their stock is “taking over their house”.

They have since spent around £7,000 on refurbishing the new store. 

Mr Halliday, who runs HalliGear Tactical, will sell “tactical equipment and military accessories and clothing” at the shop. This includes trousers, jackets, bags and utility belts.

The couple said they are “very excited” about the opening, adding they hope their businesses will bring something that is “not already offered” to Ripon.

HalliCustom and HalliGear Tactical will open at 11 High Skellgate on Saturday, August 24.

The shop will be open from 2pm to 5pm on weekdays and 10pm until 6pm on Saturdays.
