After Raising nearly $330,000 on Kickstarter, Crowdfunding for Coalatree's Sustainable, All-Purpose Camper Down Hooded Jacket Shifts to Indiegogo InDemand
More than 2,600 backers supported Coalatree's popular ultra-comfortable and functional camper hooded jacket 2.0 on Kickstarter as the momentum now continues on InDemand.
SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 6, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Riding a wave of crowdfunding success on Kickstarter campaign, where backers invested nearly $330,000 for Coalatree's new feature-loaded, featherlight, toasty-warm Camper Down Hooded Jacket on Kickstarter, crowdfunding is now live on Indiegogo InDemand.
"The response from our backers on Kickstarter shows that there's a large number of consumers who want comfort, functionality and sustainability in their apparel, and that's what the Camper Down Hooded Jacket delivers," Coalatree Founder and CEO Jacob Charles Bessey. "We are grateful for everyone's support and expect many more people will discover this lightweight, versatile jacket as we continue crowdfunding on Indiegogo InDemand."
Made from recycled and upcycled materials, the Camper Down Hooded Jacket is an all-purpose jacket that combines the warmth and comfort of a down jacket with the style and function that makes it ideal for outdoor adventure, travel and city living. Since it can also be packed down into a tiny pouch for easy transport, or a comfortable travel pillow, the jacket is ideal for travel.
Windproof and water-resistant, the jacket is lined with strategic pockets for carrying gear and it's made with eco-friendly insulation. Its sleek, lightweight design makes it an "everyday, mountain-to-city must-have."
The jacket is designed with Dupont™ ComfortMax™ Fiberfill, a multi-layer padding for low temperatures that offers warmth down to minus-20 degrees Fahrenheit. This insulation provides up to five-times more insulation warmth than other similar fibers. Each layer of fiberfill weighs only five-to-10 grams, which provides multi-layer protection from the elements with superior performance.
The new design elements include multi-layer insulation with additional air pockets for increased warmth and performance. Also, a vapor-coated, durable water repellent (DWR) finish helps to keeps liquids at bay while retaining 93 percent of its warmth when wet. The jacket also has an antimicrobial finish – allowing users to do more and wash less.
With plenty of zip pockets, an adjustable hood, and cuffs and hem, users can easily carry any gear while staying comfortable. If it happens to heat up outside, the jacket can be easily folded back into its own front pocket and stored until needed.
Coalatree Camper Hooded Jacket features include:
- Reflective hood screenprint
- Adjustable hood
- Chin guard
- Media pockets with headphone port
- Internal stuff pocket (which fits a flask when not in use)
- Quilted brick pattern
- Adjustable hem
- Zipper hoods
- Adjustable Velcro Cuffs
- Glove pockets
The Coalatree Camper Hooded Jacket is also sustainably made from bluesign®-approved and recycled materials, so users will know they are making a positive impact on the environment with every purchase.
