The previous record was held by 'The 10-year Hoodie', which raised $1.054 M on Kickstarter in 2013 in 46 days. BauBax's record total is particularly impressive because it's early in the campaign, which runs until September 3rd on Kickstarter.
“We are honored and inspired by the incredible support we have received from our more than 7,600 backers early in our record breaking Kickstarter campaign,” said Yoganshi Shah, founder and Chief Design Officer of BauBax. “Our goal is to help fellow travelers solve all travel problems with our feature-loaded jackets, hoodies, blazers and windbreakers. This high demand and overwhelming support validates that BauBax is a product that travelers around the world want and need."
BauBax travel jackets are created by travelers for travelers. They are stylish, lightweight and comfortable, and are loaded with so many features that leading media outlets have nicknamed BauBax "The Swiss Army Knife of Travel Jackets."
With a built-in neck pillow and eye mask they are ideal for travelers who like to catch up on sleep. BauBax features also include a zipper with a small pen and stylus attached, earphone holders, multiple tech gadget pockets, a drink pocket and built-in gloves.
Passports, wallets, tablets, smartphones, earphones, sunglasses, portable charger, pocket blanket and water bottles are just a few of the many items that can be stored in a BauBax jacket.
BauBax Jackets are available in multiple colors and styles up until September 3rd on Kickstarter.
The BauBax jackets are offered for men and women in four styles: sweatshirt, bomber jacket, windbreaker and blazer. The BauBax blazer is made of wrinkle free fabric and features a removable hood for a quick transition between travel and a business meeting.
“We thank everyone who has contributed and we look forward to shipping their jackets in November,” said Hiral Sanghavi, co-founder and CEO of BauBax. "It will be exciting to see fellow travelers in airports around the world wearing our travel jackets."
