Your Ultimate Preview of What Invincible Rubber Has In Store for MRW.

Manchester Rubber Weekend 16 is just around the corner, and we’re gearing up for one of the biggest gear events in the UK kink calendar. Whether you're a long-time rubber enthusiast or discovering your latex look for the first time, this year promises to be a celebration of fetish fashion, community, and creativity—and Invincible Rubber will be right at the heart of it.

The Biggest Range We've Ever Brought to the Gear Market

In preparation for MRW16, we’ve significantly expanded our Ready to Ship collection—making sure there’s something for everyone, whether you're into classic black, vibrant colours or something a little kinkier. On top of that, we’ve added even more designs and products to our pop up Invincible Store, making this our widest-ever range available for purchase at a market event. If you're looking for rubber you can walk away with on the day, or some last minute accessories and care products, this is the stall for you!

Behind the Scenes: Planning the Market and Demo Area

Our team has been busy working closely with the Manchester Rubber Weekend organisers to coordinate our presence at the gear market. From floor plans to product displays, we’re making sure our stall setup is better than ever.

As part of our ongoing commitment to the community, we’ve also sponsored a brand-new Vac Cube for this year’s demo area. Featuring Invincible branding and a new airtight zip entry, the cube has already been tested (rigorously!) by our workshop team—and we can confirm it’s an absolute treat!

Shine Station & Charity Support

We’ll be running one of several Shine Station over the weekend, helping you keep your rubber gleaming all weekend long. In exchange, we’ll be collecting donations for George House Trust, a Manchester-based charity that has been at the forefront of HIV activism for 40 years. We’re proud to support their work during MRW16.

What Will You Be Wearing?

The run-up to Manchester Rubber Weekend is always one of our busiest times of year, and this year is no exception! We've been working hard to get as many orders fulfilled as possible, and we can’t wait to see what you’ll be wearing—whether it’s a classic cop look, a sleek suit, or something custom.

If you're still looking for the perfect outfit, swing by our stall at Cruz 101 between 12pm and 5pm on Saturday 21 June—we’d love to help you find your next outfit for one of the many events across the weekend.

Enter Our Competition – Win the New Special Forces Uniform

We’ll also be launching an exciting competition over the weekend. One lucky gearhead will win our brand-new Special Forces Uniform—a bold, military-inspired design that’s already turning heads. Keep your eyes on our social media pages and event posters for full entry details and your chance to win big.

Free Goodie Bags With Every Purchase

As an extra thank you, we’ll be giving away a free goodie bag, sponsored by our friends at Vivishine with every purchase made at the market. Expect a mix of treats, care items, and exclusive extras to keep your gear looking and feeling amazing over the weekend.
