Someone contacted LTTStore support last month who apparently confirmed the beanies/toques are not gone for good:

Yea they got back to me. Impressed with the quick reply. They basically said the same thing.

As for the toques, not gone forever, thankfully.

Of course no word on when they would return though, so not sure on that.

Linus said on WAN show that they had a manufacturing defect and had been recalled as a result, so it's probably gonna take a while to replace the already sold ones and have some again...

You're an awfully pessimistic individual.

Ā 

They were TOO popular for them to be gone forever. They'll be back. I suspect no date was given because they were too early in the process of rectifying the problem to know how long the solution would take, be it the manufacture correcting the fault, finding a new one, etc.

My post simply stated the facts out there (or rather the information given by LTTStore support):

- They will be back

- No date on when

Nothing in my post implied I thought they were gone for good.

Yah I was wondering this too so I asked in FP chat and Linus said that they were a big hit but they all have defects. They need to fix the recalling problems and then they can find a new manufacturer and start production again.

In my message IĀ said, ā€œthey are not gone forever, thankfully.ā€Ā You end your reply with, ā€œnot so sure about that.ā€ From my perspective, that implies that you expect itā€™s possible, if not likely for them to be permanent discontinued. I think thatā€™s a pessimistic outlook, given their popularity.Ā

He said "so not sure on that" implying he's not sure when they will return as a hard date.

Yah, I think the second half of mini's statement was directed to the op in this case that he's not sure of a hard date to their question.

In that case my post seemed more pessimistic than I tried to make it.

Of course no word on when they would return though, so not sure on that.

The "not sure on that." refers to the "when" in the sentence "when they would return".

Ā 

As an outsider, with the same limited knowledge as anyone on this forum, I am not sure onĀ whenĀ they would be back, so I had no date to mention.

I made no comment (or at least attempted not to) onĀ ifĀ they would return, just a post about not knowing a dateĀ when.

Ā 

Anyways, we can argue about how my post does or does not portray me as a pessimistic person, but I just wanted to point out speculation onĀ ifĀ they would return was not my intention in my post.

Yea I donā€™t think that needs to be discussed anymore. I miss-interpreted what you said, and LurickĀ straightened me out.

Ā 

All that said, any news? If not, I might shoot supportĀ another email looking for a timeframe.
