Hello everyone!
WOW GUYS! Our live project, Fire Starter Paracord Bracelet / Keychain | Survival Gear, now has exactly 1308 backers and $64,276 in funds! It is so exciting for us to see new backers on a daily basis. What can we say? You guys are really the best damn supporters! THANK YOU!
Here's a cute little gif for you guys :)
As stated in our live campaign, we have already begun speaking to our manufacturers so that we can start production earlier for you guys. We really want you guys to receive your rewards as soon as possible. When it comes to producing a product in thousands of units in a manufacturer, there may be some indirect or unseen tasks that may present itself during the process of production. During our Bomber Barrel Campaign, we dealt with huge labor strikes at the Oakland ports which delayed our container to arrive by 3 weeks due to three months of backlogs. Our container was literally sitting offshore waiting to be processed for 3 weeks. However, we were fortunate enough to finish manufacturing all of our Bomber Barrel Bag production weeks ahead of schedule and even shipped out prior to Chinese New Year. And so, for our live campaign, we want to do our very best to have your packages arrive ON TIME. By setting up our manufacturers earlier, we'll have everything lined up and ready to go after our campaign ends.
We're a weeks in with our live project. Lets keep spreading the word and share our project! Keep up the great work team!
Here are some awesome kickstarters that we would love to share with you guys:
It’s time to stop paying the hidden fees and waiting around for your checked luggage. The GOB∆G is a carry-on sized duffel bag designed so you can travel compact with all the gear you need. Its killer feature is the Max Pack Bag, which allows you to vacuum compress your soft items. This enables you to carry enough for a long trip in a 35 litre bag.
Our friends at Dash Wallets are back on Kickstarter with their latest super-slim wallet. With its durable elastic and saffiano leather canvas, the Dash Wallets is practical and minimal. They’re a steal for only $12! Count us in. Check it out here.
Our friends over at Original Grain just launched their newest watch collection. Featuring the first and only watch made from authentic American Oak Whiskey Barrels sourced in the USA! This whiskey watch is the first of its kind and is receiving a bunch of support. They are also offering 6 combinations of exotic hardwood & stainless steel.
Now that summer's here for good, we want to tell you about our friends at Westwood Sunglasses. These may be some of the coolest shades you'll ever see. Their new Tribal Collection features five new frames inspired by art from cultures around the world. Plus they are made of wood and float, how cool is that!? Do us a favor and check them out.
