hey ya'll! big thanks to everyone who's filled our their surveys so far -- if youre still waiting to get yours in, thats totally fair! based on feedback from you guys, we're considering extending the survey deadline until people are able to see more of our finished samples, so youve definitely still got some time.

i got back from my anniversary (now upgraded to ENGAGEMENT!! 💍💍) trip earlier this week and almost immediately had to jump into overtime for my fulltime job + our family pets have been having a myriad of health issues I've been trying to help my dad with, so i dont have much in the way of updates yet. i had to play catch up with some production work for my regular store & monthly membership clubs, so next on the list is putting together the design files for the next batch of samples!

our current production plan is as follows: the next set of samples will be the original brown bat (with some changes), the honduran white bat, and the dreamy bat. once we're happy with those three samples, we can start mass production on those at the same time as we start on samples for the next three designs, and so on so forth! I'm hoping that staggering production this way will help get things done more efficiently & with less stress for the factory in the upcoming holiday season. 

thats the idea, anyway! if anything changes, ill be sure to let you guys know 🖤

remember: youre always welcome to message me on social media (@ANDPIERRES) or reach out via email ([email protected]) if you have any questions or need to make changes to your order after its locked! we're always happy to help 🦇

thanks again as always for all the support & happy halloween! 🎃

good afternoon, everyone! backerkit finally approved my survey changes literally 30 minutes after yesterday's post (LOL), and after sending out a few test batches, im very happy to announce that backerkit surveys have now been emailed out to ALL backers! 🦇

check your email (and your spam folder!!) for a link to complete your survey. make sure you know  what youd like to add on, as orders will generally lock at the end of the same day you order!

youll have until the end of November to complete your surveys (to account for the added time waiting for approval), and you can change your shipping address up until the 1st of January, 2025!

as always, you can always contact me here or via email if you have any questions about your order or about the survey. as a reminder, batpacks are currently expected to ship out in SPRING 2025!

i cant wait to start sharing the new samples and production updates with you all! 🖤 thanks so so much for your patience, everyone!

(psst, backers, read on for some exclusive news regarding my next backerkit project!)

thank you so much for your patience regarding surveys, everyone! i know a lot of you have been waiting eagerly for updates; as of today, im currently still waiting for backerkit approval before I'm allowed to send them out.

i submitted for review last week, was asked to make a few changes & submitted those friday evening, so now we just need to keep waiting until backerkit approves them!

(i'm also currently on an anniversary trip with my partner & have had sporadic data access, so i promise im checking as often as i can!)

as soon as i have more information, i promise youll all be the first to know 🖤 and as always you're always welcome to message me or comment here if you have any questions!

have a great week, everyone, and with luck I'll have more news in the next few days!

GREAT NEWS, EVERYONE! i've finally been able to wrestle with international shipping costs & have sent out the backer survey to backerkit for review. as soon as they get back to me with their decision, surveys will be LIVE and sent out to all of you!

if you ended up being unable to pledge during the campaign run, worry not! the pre-order store is open NOW and you can still snag a ton of the items that were available during the campaign!

looking to preorder a batpack of a certain style? order sooner rather than later -- once all survey responses are in, we'll be locking in the amounts for our manufacturing order, after which the number of available bags for each design will become limited!

keep an eye on your emails for your survey! since it took a bit longer to get the whole thing setup than expected, once surveys are out, you'll have until november 14th to complete them :)

thanks again for all the support!!
