UPDATE #1

Update #1 · Aug 20, 2012 · comment

Thank you everyone who has already supported us! Please continue to spread the word to your friends and family. Every little bit counts and we are definitely going to need it to hit our 20k goal and make the gentleman's line a reality. 

UPDATE 1.1 - We realized [quickly] that Kickstarter is not set up, as far as we can tell, to let you pledge multiple levels which is a bummer. We have received a ton of private messages asking us to let people pledge and receive multiple things which we DEFINITELY want to do! So our idea is that you pick one of the items and pledge the total amount of all items you would like + international shipping [if needed]. Then you send me a private message or an email at matt@wellensurf.com saying what you pledged and what items you want. We created a spreadsheet that we are going to keep track of all of these custom pledges in. We can't really think of any other way. 

example:

you want a bow tie, 3 pack of pants, and a t- shirt. You pick one of those items and pledge a total of 150 [pants] + 25 [bow tie] + 20 [t-shirt] = 195.00 [if you are international you add 10]

Then you send me a message that says "HEY!! I love your kickstarter and wanted to buy everything but couldn't. I pledged 195.00 today to help support this awesome cause. I pledged on the bow tie, but I also want the pants and t shirt! Thanks a ton! You guys are the best."

We will then add your stuff to our custom spread sheet so we don't somehow mess it up and we are all good to go!

UPDATE 1.2 - We are changing the reward for the dopp Kit, originally when we created the kickstarter we thought by making it something you received after a 250.00 pledge people would pick multiple items, after realizing this is not as easy as it sounds we are changing it to be that if you pledge 150.00 you can receive one of our Dopp Kits in addition to your other items. Hope this helps!! We have had a lot of awesome feedback from people wanting these.

THANKS A TON!!!
