Hello! Wanted to share another update regarding how things are going! In my last post, I talked about difficulties we were having with the lavender colorways and also some changes that needed to be made to the ivory and gray colorway.

The eyes and paws were fixed, now we have a nice cool face that matches way better! I'm unsure how I feel about the bronze gems on the crowns, I might switch them to gray if we can source them. Otherwise this one is now officially done!

These two are still in a weird territory. The new cool tone ribbon matches the Pantone colors I picked for the fish and saddle way more but it does have more of a muted feel. The nylon strap is also not available in a similar color. We found one more cool than before but it stands out quite a bit. I'm going to have one of them mailed to me so I can better review the color differences it in person.

I'd love to hear your thoughts for those interested in either lavender colorway if you preferred the original "warm" ribbon that more matched the strap or the new "cool" ribbon that matches the saddle!

We updated Cheshire to have the same cool tone lavender ribbon as the other two!

 

Still no previews yet on Harlequin sorry, my manu is still having a hard time sourcing a harlequin patterned ribbon so we might need to proceed with custom printing it ourselves.


All the colorways together! (Except Pink x White & Wine x Black as I have those at home. Cheshire has the old "warm" lavender ribbon in these photos)

It's honestly sooo cool seeing them all mostly lined up like this. It's been a lot of development the last several months but we're approaching the finish line before bulk production can begin! I wanted to wait until all the colorways were officially complete but I get questions about the survey so I wanted to ask, do you guys want me to send the survey without having the final versions of the bags complete? I'm nervous about doing it in case any other changes need to happen but I know it's been several months now so I'm curious to hear what you guys think?

Speaking of, the original timeline for the campaign was supposed to be December 2024. But with us hitting all the stretch goals and increasing the amount of colorways from 5 to 9, we're spending way more time developing each colorway (as each has been taking around 1-2 months to develop). So I anticipate the new delivery date will be sometime in May/June 2025. So sorry for the wait, I hope this isn't too disappointing. I really want all of the cats and their respective colors to come out well so we're spending the extra time making sure everything's good.

That's it for now, thank you!
