      Hi everyone! We are working like CRAZY packing up all of these (over 700) wallets to ship out to you as soon as we possibly can! I've been focusing on the international backers first because the shipping takes longer, and we're finishing that up and moving on to US backers today. You should get an email with tracking info when yours goes out. I know you guys are anxiously awaiting your super awesome wallets- please bear with me as I've been focused on getting these shipped ASAP vs. responding to your messages asking when they will ship... hoping to get you tracking info instead of a "soon" response! Thank you so much for your support and patience!

      Got mine earlier today! A little short on pockets for my own day to day use, but perfect for my girlfriend! Personal thank you was a nice touch too :D

      @Rainer, good for you! I will keep checking my email then.

    20. Meepic2.small

      Creator Rainer on December 8, 2011

      @Herry - can't speak for you, but I just got the notification that mine had shipped. If you haven't got that, it's probably coming soon.

      Had a great time at the launch party! Congratulations on the Jetsam line, they are amazing and I love mine! =) May my old wallet rest in peace. Looking forward to any future projects you start.

      Creator Laura Skelton on November 10, 2011

      Hey backers! I'm still finishing up the survey for your shipping details, so don't worry if you haven't gotten it yet. For international backers who still need to give the extra $3, and for people whose payment didn't go through on Amazon Payments, there will be a section in the survey to take care of that. Thanks!

    24. Missing_small

      Creator Ryan Mathews on November 9, 2011

      Yes! I can definitely see this product taking off, and I think the ~600 of us who ordered wallets would like to show that we helped at the beginning. Kickstarter box or special logo, I'm not picky.

      Creator Laura Skelton on November 8, 2011

      Thanks Ryan! I was thinking about doing a special Kickstarter box, but I could potentially do a special logo. Is that something you would want?

    28. Missing_small

      Creator Ryan Mathews on November 8, 2011

      I think the little Jetsam logo on the inside right corner is a nice touch. Had you considered making a unique logo of some sort for the Kickstarter wallets?

      Hi Joshua,
      Thanks so much for backing Jetsam! Once the project funds, I'll be able to send you a little form to fill out with which edition you'd like and your shipping info.

    35. Fb_profile_picture.small

      Creator Joshua Petry on November 2, 2011

      For the $30 pledge, it says that we can choose the edition of the wallet (assuming this means one of the four). How do we make this choice?

    36. 20110211_pbimg_0293_2.small

      Creator Laura Skelton on November 2, 2011

      Hi Henrik,

      With the Kickstarter rewards, you can't choose your specific wallet, only a surprise wallet from one of the four styles- the Prepster (classic necktie), the Uncle Larry (retro necktie), the Spiffy Lumberjack (plaid), or the Natty Professor (tweed herringbone). If you want to choose your exact wallet, you can wait until I open my online shop later this month, but you won't get the special Kickstarter discount.

      Thanks!

    37. 20110211_pbimg_0293_2.small

      Creator Laura Skelton on November 1, 2011

      Ha ha... well I guess I can't stop you from wearing a suit with your tie wallet!

      Thanks for the support everyone, this is so incredible!

      Wooo! These are gorgeous. Just so you know; I am going to use with my suit (not a sailor suit). You can't stop me.

      Thanks Joshua! Sorry I missed this, Henrik! The wallets have 2 card pockets which hold several cards each- 8-12 cards total.

    44. Aaaah.small

      Creator Joshua on October 30, 2011

      Henrik: Just click "Manage Your Pledge" on the side. Then enter the new amount(the full amount, if you put $3 you'll be changing your pledge to $3, not your original pledge +$3).

    45. Fb_profile_picture.small

      Creator Henrik Shappe Blomdahl on October 27, 2011

      I just read that since i'm ordering from Sweden i need to add $3. Do I just add 3 more to pledge or how do I do?

    46. Fb_profile_picture.small
