Hello friends,

We just received word from our supplier that not all of the materials needed to construct Hackpack arrived at the same time. (Ahhh!) As a result, it caused a delay in their production process making the new arrival date be the end of June. These kinds of delays are common and we have not lost confidence in their ability to complete our order. Although it’s not the news we wanted, we're happy to be on this adventure together sharing all the ups and downs.

We feel terrible about this short delay and would love to make it up to you. Please contact us if this delay is an issue for you. We completely understand and will do anything we can to make it right.

Thank you again for your support!
Kim and Ed 

Hello Kickstarter Friends!

I wanted to share the most recent information I have about our beloved Hackpacks. They are estimated to hit U.S. soil on May 20th! From there, it can a week or longer to clear customs. If we hit any bumps in the road I will keep you posted. We're in this together!

Next, we'll be gathering shipping addresses - so stay tuned. 

That's all for now!
Kim

Hi Everyone!

In today's update, I am happy to share a photo of the dust cover bag that every single Hackpack will arrive in. You can use this protective bag when storing Hackpack. Our manufacturer custom made these just for us and they look great!  

We are still shooting for our May 2017 deadline, but I will follow up as soon as I have more definitive details and a timeline. 

Also, as we get closer to our shipping date, we will be confirming shipping addresses. We waited to collect these to avoid the possibility of someone who moved and forgot to tell us. :) 

Thank you again, backers!

Hello Hackpackers!

Excited to share with you an update on our progress. We just received word from our manufacturer stating they are hard at work on our order! They stated they are spending extra time to ensure each bag is crafted with the highest quality. We also received an estimate that the bags will arrive in the United States in May 2017!

Our manufacturer is also working on our duster bags! This is the cloth satchel that each Hackpack will arrive in. Here's the logo we placed on the front!

As always, we will keep everyone updated with as much detail as possible! Thanks for your patience and support. We are counting down the days now until Hackpack ships worldwide.

Cheers!
Kim

P.S. We will be asking for shipping addresses closer to the ship date. (This will minimize problems that arise when people move and forget to update their address with us)

Kim here! I’m very excited to share with you an update on our progress. 

Production:

The Hackpacks are in the queue for production! 

When we created our Spring 2017 timeline, we did so knowing that the Chinese New Year is on January 28th. Why is this important? Well, this is a huge holiday in China. Therefore, our bags will go into production at the end of February and will take 2-3 months to complete. From there, it’s off to the United States. We will, of course, keep you posted every step of the way! 

Reward Tiers

Did you Pre-Order a Hackpack and now wish you ordered 2? We can make that happen! Just shoot us a message, and we will honor the same Kickstarter reward price for 2 Hackpacks. 

Also, if you have any friends who are jealous of your Hackpack order or know someone who forgot to pledge, then we have good news. We are accepting Pre-Orders on our site! The price is a little higher than what we offered to our loyal Kickstarter backers, but it is still at a discount from the full MSRP. 

Hang Tags

Lastly, here’s a peek at our signature hang tags! I had a great time creating this design and worked with an amazing local Los Angeles letterpress shop for execution. We chose a 222 lb GMUND cotton in Imperial Blue with white ink pressed directly into the paper. Doesn’t get more classy than that! :)

That's it for now, but more to come in the future! :)
