Just after I ordered (about March 15th 2021), I noticed that the Latex Catfish brand had split up, and accidentally ordered on the US site (ending in '.store'), while being in contact with the Chinese one before my purchase. It is definitively complicated and confusing. The day after my order, I got an email from the US-branch, asking which kind of zippers I wanted. To me, that seemed like a sign the company might still be producing (a scam company would probably not put the effort in communicating about order details). I paid my order with PayPal, and opened a dispute (just in case) about a week after my order, based on the reviews on this site and others. I got into contact with the US-branch again, and they asked me to close the dispute, or cancel my order. I proposed that, if they would send me some pictures of the suit during manufacturing, I would close the dispute. So I closed it, and about a week later, I got a picture (so yes, I took the risk by closing it BEFORE I got any pictures). Concerning the communication, all was done through email. I always got an answer the morning after the day I sent the email. Not surprisingly fast, but definitively acceptable. The guy I was in contact with told me the suit would be in production at the beginning of April 2021, and would be ready for shipping in May 2021. To my surprise, the suit was shipped (with FedEx) last Thursday (April 8th 2021). Today (April 15th 2021), I received the suit (delivery between China-Europe). It was suspiciously fast, and I was a little worried. Normally their process takes more than a few months... Then the order itself: small package, but still firmly wrapped. I ordered a suit with separate gloves and socks. The quality of the latex seems ok, the gluing job is ok (some superficial letters are not completely glued well in the corners, but nothing structural), and the size is perfect (I ordered a standard size). So for this price, I am definitively satisfied. I have ordered one time before with Latex Catfish (in late 2017), before the split, and in comparison with this order, they have clearly improved on production time, communication, kinds of zippers, latex quality and shipping time. I only received that order about half a year later, and it took multiple emails to push them to do their job faster. So in that sense, my previous experience with Latex Catfish is more similar to many of the reviews here. However, it is strange that for my most recent order, many people share a completely different experience than mine: no or poor communication, extremely long waiting times (or just no sign their order is actually being processed), etc. So I would suggest anyone who wants to place an order: read through all reviews and make up your mind. All I can say is that I am pretty satisfied. It might be that they are still trying to clean up the mess, and catching up with the orders, but I cannot affirm that. Also: they have a new website as part of the split: it's called Glanzig.com. You can still access the old website through their new one, but if you want to order with them, it would probably be better to order from their new website... Anyway, sorry for the long review. Hope it helps.

I am STILL out 92 dollars on an order i placed in october, due to receive in december, and all i got were a couple of emails telling me to talk to my bsnk about a refund. I'll just cut my losses and try a different retailer.

I have waited for my order for 3 months without any information. I have sent them a lot of unanswered emails. Today they answered "I just checked the status of your order and I found your order has been shipped out.Are you sure you haven't received the order?". NO, I HAVEN'T RECEIVE THE ORDER AND I DON'T HAVE ANY INFORMATION ABOUT THE TRACKING NUMBER. THIS IS A SHAME.

I ordered several times with latex catfish, but I was scammed twice immediately after using my credit card here. And the products I ordered in August and October 2020 haven't arrived yet.

I made an order around August and still haven't received the item. recently I sent an email asking about it and their response was we have been shipping the orders out, seems like a scam company and I'm down about $300.

Poor quality, unreasonable wait times. Used them years ago and they were just O.K. Avoid like the plague.

Good quality, nice product and great price. You do have to wait a few months for your order but I've always been happy with what I got. It seems like lately the US side of the company has made a mess of things. They do however try and keep people informed and said all orders will still be manufactured. I really hope they stay in business!

Revised Review. Kune 2021 : We hear that Catfish is now using UK made. Or made to UK specification rubber sheets in their manufacturing process. If so that earlier low quality material with unpleasant chemical odor might be history. We might try a small sample order and post our findings. Old review below: Wrong Name! Latex "Crap Fishy". Bad fit. Aweful chemical odour. Useless Company now.

Don't be fooled! The "break up" is all a complete lie. They are the same company and used it as an excuse to bail on 1000's of orders including my own. They have always been based in China, you have always paid to China. All the positive reviews are lies. I'm yet to see anyone receive a product ordering from either website. They are trying to sell the same stuff via a different company name now too called Kink Projects. They are doing this to try and avoid negative review places like this. It's all a scam! What ever this company was is no more. They'll keep doing this for as long as they can to squeeze as much money out of all of us. Buy else where. It's not worth the allure of saving a few dollars.

I ordered clothes from Catfish. Delivery time is very long - longer than written on the page. Finally after 4 month we received the shipment with all ordered items. For this price the quality is ok. Nothing special but ok. They have beautiful items on there webpage so I think about ordering a second time.

They're trying to hide behind the excuse of "their American provider is having issues" Which doesn't make any sense. You pay their PayPal direct, not an American. Manged to get in touch with an old contact who used to work for them in China. They got back to me and said the company is done and has no intention of refunding anyone. They had well over a thousand orders to complete apperently. They've taken the money and ran. I was waiting for something myself, I'm out $600. I liked the couple of items I got from this company. Though, they didn't last very long. Build quality wasn't great. Shame to see them go? But, scam company who willingly copies other companies designs. Perhaps this isn't a company we should of been supporting as a community anyway. Bye bye bad company. Sorry we all fell for your scam. If they come back, I would not trust them.

Very unprofessional company! I placed an order over 3 months ago that didn't move to production at all, and recently received an email telling me that I had to seek out my own refund with the third party company, and replace my order if I still wanted it. Anyone who runs a business knows that these things are not the responsibility of the customer, they are the responsibility of the company, regardless of whether or not business relations went sour with a manufacturer or not. I'll be surprised if this review lasts without getting deleted, but I will be posting it elsewhere for sure. Don't ever order from this company, terrible customer service, and you may or may not even get the product you paid for.

75 days in to an order that should have taken 45 days to arrive, they told me to call back in another 30 days to see if my items are ready for despatch ! Now Halloween, the day I wanted the outfit for an online party during Covid lockdown... Ordering on 18th August should have been early enough to get a new car delivered by end of October, let alone a couple of rubber items of clothing ! They have not responded to ANY emails since I requested a cancellation and refund !!! Now down to Barclaycard and Paypal to get my $200 back. AVOID !!!!

So I was concerned too about ordering from Glanzig / latex catfish. So I wrote to them asking about some of the Negative reviews around the web and they told me that they had a falling out with there US office and there were some issues in the past. They have since taken care of the issues and would like to rebrand as Glanzig. My experience was excellent, the custom size suit that I ordered was perfect and the delivery time was not bad. I have to say I will order again and I'm excited about it I honestly have had more issues with Simon O.
