Only one week left to go for our kickstarter campaign!
Wow time flies by so quick. It feels like only yesterday that we started and we now only have one more week left to go for our campaign.
We still need a bit of funding so we kindly like to ask everyone to continue sharing our campaign and get all those friends that showed some interest to join as well. Only 7 more days before our kickstarter campaign is over;)
Further more we want to share a short update about our trip to Portugal last week. We went for two days to the factory to make some final changes to the last for the man shoes and to work on the Bend-it belt. Since we like you to be part of our adventure, we want to share a small video about the factory where the lasts for the Bend-it shoes are being made.
Lasts are used as molts to stretch and shape the leather when creating the shoe. This is kind of similar as if a real foot was in the shoe. Having a good last is really important because it defines the final shape and thus the comfort of the shoe. We are very happy and proud that our lasts are being made by one of the best last makers who also work for some of the biggest and well-known brands in the world.
Click on the video for a 2-minute journey to the last factory!
Thanks again for all your support and for taking part in our adventures.
Best wishes,
