Thank you for including the whole community in this journey. I have backed over 40 products on Kickstarter for several years, and this is the first one that shows true transparency. I wish more companies followed your model.

so awesome to hear! Transparency is the name of the game for us and we can't wait to continue taking you on this journey with us :)

Really excited to hear you will take us along for the rest of the journey - I don’t think I would ever do this myself, but I am fascinated by others who are brave enough to do it! I hope you continue to keep us involved / informed as you setup your permanent supply chain / website / etc. post-KS deliveries. So cool!

Thanks Lance, and yup! That's our goal! It's so much fun bringing everyone along for the journey and we plan to make this radical transparency a staple of the Fyro brand moving forward :)

I am so looking forward to having you over here to film the production of the T22 Aaron! It's really is going to be the most awesome video on KZread about how a backpack is made. Seriously fired up!

Nice, Aaron. You said you've partnered with experience like fulfillment places etc. Did the folks in Vietnam help with that, did you ask other bag companies who those people were? I'd be interested because I'd have no clue how to find that type of business, much less knowing if they're actually great at what they do. Also, first time through a process, no worries, stuff happens. We've all had the experience of buying something and it's delayed or cancelled with zero communication about it and that's the worst. You're obviously at the other end of that spectrum and it's appreciated.

Thanks so much! And yes, our partners in Vietnam helped and I also hired an experienced consultant (and good friend) to help me find the best shipping options. I too would have no idea, so I've always learned the best thing to do is work with people who DO know

Very excited to follow all the next steps!

It's a cool summary and process. Thanks for outlining for those of us who've never been involved in manufacturing and fulfillment operations to this degree. I think understanding so well what went into the design, staging and production will enable at least me to appreciate it more once I ultimately get the pack in hand.

So I get all of the steps you listed here, with the exception of the fulfillment process centers. Like if I order a product that just launched from a company like Patagonia or The North Face, would said product be shipped from the factory in bulk to that company’s regional retailers? In the states for example Huckberry would get X amount and REI would get an X amount and how ever many others? Where I would assume a company like Evergoods the product would ship in bulk to them for US distribution and suburban for Asian distribution, Rushfaster for Australian distribution, and I cant remember the stockists for there European markets is at the moment. Then for your brand Fyro I have no idea how that would work. The only thing I can imagine is like how the big brands use retailers as their distro, that you would have to work out contracts with a warehouse where you either pay them a lump sum or a percentage of each sale and they agree to store your product, and then when you got an order that is in the same region as said warehouse and the payment was processed on the Frys site it then gets sent to that warehouse and they ship it out ? Meanwhile the same thing is going on at different warehouses all over the world? Or maybe the distro company has warehouses all over so you are only working with one distro, that seems like the best scenario. I am probably not even close, but it was fun to try… lol

Is it still the plan to do a Fyro Sling bag next? Because if that’s the case, I'm very interested in backing it. And I have plenty of input (So many companies get it almost right, but not quite!)

We will be announcing our next product soon AND we'll be building it in public again with the help of our community. Be on the lookout!

Glad you made your dream of making your bag come to life. It isn't a design for me, but I will always appreciate passion and dedication to turning an idea into something other people can enjoy! Great job!!!

Congratulation Aaron! I'm so happy to see Fyro succeed, and I can't wait to see what happens going forward! I'm here from your email, and you invited me to ask a question, so I'm gunna shoot my shot... I'm someone who was in the camp that really liked the bronze looking emblem over the black one... If you have any spares leftover from samples, is there any way I could order my Fyro with the bronze on it? If not, no big deal, but if so, it would be like Christmas for me... I can provide a backer number, confirmation number, pay extra, or do what I gotta do... Please and Thank you!

@Fyro_official

Ай бұрын

thanks so much mate! And I totally get where you are coming from with the bronze version, but unfortunately it's actually quite complicated to make this happen. Plus if I did it for you I'd have to offer it to everyone, which is borderline impossible unfortunately with our logistics at the moment. Again, apologies for this but we do thank you for your understanding.
