About
We use wireless Qi technology in our bags so you can ditch the cables that tie you down and charge on-the-go without thinking about it. Every time you place your phone in the designated pocket it will begin to charge automatically. No wires to connect, no buttons to push.
In addition to wireless charging, the Evolution Smart Bag is also completely washable, incredibly durable, can be easily customized - and is uber stylish.
Our outer shells are made from EVA, which is a low-waste polymer that expands once released from a pressurized injection mold. It is incredibly strong and often used for the soles of running shoes. It resistant to fading, water, spills, and rips, is ultra-lightweight, soft to the touch, and it will last decades. The polymer can be made from recycled plastics and the final products can be recycled and used for many things after their life as a handbag, making them very Earth-friendly.
Backers choose between a beige or a black EVA shell for each reward tier. Additional colors will be offered as an add-on purchase ($29).
You can fit your phone, wallet, keys, makeup, notebook, sunglasses, pens, snacks, mints, gum, lens cleaning wipes, tissues, deodorant, drink enhancers, crackers, all the receipts that we know will end up in there... safely stowed away in one of the many stretch pockets - everything where you left it, nothing falling out. This is how we keep it together ;)
The interchangeable flap closures let you keep your style fresh season after season, year after year - without breaking the bank. Each reward comes with at least two flaps so you immediately have options for styling upon arrival.
The adjustable strap lets you easily go from crossbody to handbag in no time.
The included 10000mAh power unit will take you through the week. It stays hidden in a secured internal pocket and recharges wirelessly, without removing it from the bag, on the Evolution charging base. It is removable for travel and other uses. The wireless charging feature automatically connects to your phone when it is within range.
Your Evolution Smart Bag comes with a specially designed charging base to recharge the power unit within the bag without the need to remove it or plug it in. (Charging ports are still available to recharge while on vacation or when you are without your base for longer periods of time).
We launched this campaign to get this product to market. Funds raised will allow us to have the machinery and molding made to produce our outer bag shells and our wireless charging base and to produce each item in larger quantities which will reduce our overall carbon footprint from shipping and waste. We have had our modular system, without the added technology, produced for the last two years. Our charging feature was created by an engineering team that boasts dozens of patents and published scientific articles. Our production partners (who also produce bags for luxury brands Valentino, Tosca Blu, Le Tanneur, and more) are ready to go as soon as we give them the green light. All prototypes have been rigorously tested to ensure each element of the bag is functional - in other words, we are ready to produce your bag!
Our handbags are man-made with ethical manufacturing procedures, including fair wages and safe working conditions. We strive to limit our carbon footprint to help preserve the environment. We use vegan materials that are low-waste. Our EVA compound is extremely durable, long-lasting, and recyclable. When possible, we also use post-consumer content for our inner bags and flaps.
We can’t thank you enough for checking out our project and helping us make the Evolution Smart Bag a reality.

Risks and challenges
There are always certain risks that can arise at any moment during a project like this. That being said, we’re confident in our ability to produce the Evolution Smart Bag and have taken all the necessary measures to bring this project to life. We have a highly qualified team and have partnered with leading manufacturing and fulfillment companies around the world. We just need your help to bring everything to fruition. Don’t worry, we’re completely prepared to bring the Evolution Smart Bag to you, and we have the manpower to make it happen, but if anything comes up along the way, you’ll be the first to know - we promise.

EVA is not only extremely durable but it will hold up for decades. Our modular design also lets you switch style out as desired so you never have to buy a complete bag again!
Reusability and recyclability
We have a take-back program so all recycled EVA shells can be repurposed. Our favorite reuse of EVA is making squishy-soft playground mats!
