Lamb macs/jackets

Having a grand ol lambing with this inclement weather and we are getting through lamb macs at a rate of knots. We use shearwell macs and get on well with them, but today when I opened our last pack of 100 I realized they have been made wrong with all the holes in the wrong place.
Long and short of it got on the phone to shearwell, can't send out anymore as they are overrun with orders for them and our local farmers co operatives don't have any either.
Anyone know of any online that are any good, used to use Lammac but they went useless?
Anyone finished lambing in the Welsh/Herefordshire borders and is willing to part with some? Thanks

Don't use agrimin, we have used them for years but the new biodegradable type are just crap. More like tissue paper than plastic and just tear while pulling them out of box or putting them on the lamb, no way will they stop on the lamb long enough
