Updates

A day late and a dollar short, but we finally have sample photos from the manufacturer with all of my edits! The hoodies look amazing! They’re adding the drawstrings tomorrow and then they’ll be shipped out to me.

I should have them in hand within about a week, and I’ll share some updated photos so everyone can see how they look on!

The sling bags are running a little behind schedule. Today I received a photo of the straps, and while they look really nice, it’s not quite worth sharing yet. The sample uses PU straps, but the final bags will have upgraded custom webbing straps.

Once I receive the sample, I’ll be able to share the confirmed bag dimensions and strap measurements. The current strap length is 120cm, but I’d like to verify that once the sample arrives.

I’ll also be offering strap extenders as a $12 add-on in the post-campaign survey for anyone who would like extra length.

Payments are currently being processed! With crowdfunding campaigns, it’s very common for some payments to fail on the first attempt.

If your payment didn’t go through, you may need to update your payment information. BackerKit will continue attempting to process failed payments over the next several days, so don’t worry if you see a pending payment issue.

The post-campaign survey is where you’ll finalize your selections. This will be emailed out next week!

In the survey, you’ll select the styles and sizes you’d like for each pledge and add-on. You’ll also have the opportunity to make additional add-ons or update your selections if needed.

Once your survey is complete, shipping fees will be charged.

We came SO close to unlocking these designs!

During my last campaign, I was surprised to see that post-campaign add-ons brought in enough support to unlock some stretch goals after the campaign ended. Because of that, I’m considering making these designs available as well!

Keep an eye out for a poll soon, I’d love to hear what you all think!

🎉 WE DID IT!!! 🎉

We broke through our $8,500 goal and unlocked new items!

The best part? Every backer will now receive a FREE frog keychain with their pledge! 

Keeping with the mystery theme, you’ll receive 1 of 2 frog keychain designs at random!  This is an extra little surprise for everyone who helped make this campaign possible! 

BIG UPDATE:

 These hoodies will only be available for a limited time! I’m planning a short production run, so if you’ve been waiting to grab one, make sure to pre-order now because your size may not be available after the campaign ends.

And we’re not done yet… If we reach our final goal of $10,500, I’ll be able to add the Orange Harlequin Frog hoodie design to the production order!!!

We can do this! If you know someone who would love these frog hoodies, sling bags, or accessories, please share the campaign with them. Every share helps us get closer to unlocking one more surprise before the campaign ends! 

Thank you all so much for your support!

We are so close, I wanted to share the laugh! Just $1 away from our next goal and revealing the mystery reward!

We are in our final days of the campaign and have doubled our initial goal!!! To thank everyone for their support of this campaign I’m launching this mystery reward incentive for everyone who has pledged already and all our last minute shoppers that will pledge in these last two days! To make this fun, I’ll reveal the mystery reward when we reach our next goal of $8,500!

Updates
Thank you all for patiently waiting the sample reveals. I’ve spoke to my manufacturers and we should be seeing the sling bags and hoodies on Monday!

The Red-Eyed Tree Frog Hoodies are back in stock!

I just received my restock, and in addition to my usual sizes, I currently have (5) Extra Small hoodies available. Above is an example of the XS size on my 11-year-old (generally wears youth size 14) for reference.

If you’ve been hoping to grab one for your kiddo, hop over to Etsy before they’re gone! I don’t expect these to last long!

Also, I’d love your feedback: Would you be interested in seeing XS sizes available in the new ombré hoodie designs? Let me know in the comments below!
