Peak Design Launches Five-Day Greatest Hits Kickstarter Campaign
SAN FRANCISCO -- Peak Design, the leader in crowdfunding, essential carrying equipment and camera accessories, is excited to announce a special five-day return to the Kickstarter stage. During its time in the spotlight, Peak Design will be launching new versions of its Capture camera clip and Slide and Slide Lite camera straps. Along with upgrades to flagship Peak Design products, the Kickstarter campaign will celebrate Peak Design's community of backers which has been integral to the success of the company over the last six years. The Kickstarter campaign will launch on Monday, Nov. 6 and will last until Friday, Nov. 10 at 11:59 p.m.
Since 2011, Peak Design has launched nine products over six Kickstarter campaigns and has raised an unprecedented $14.8-MB dollars -- currently the most of any active crowdfunded company. Over the past year Peak Design began revamping classic product lines to bring them up to the company's new level of functionality and aesthetics. The company will conclude its overhaul with updated versions of the flagship Capture camera clip, Peak Design's first product to launch on Kickstarter, as well as its popular Slide and Slide Lite camera straps.
In choosing a one week Kickstarter campaign, Peak Design wanted to acknowledge the support of its community of backers and the product feedback fans have given throughout the years. "We wanted to bring these redesigned products back to Kickstarter because our backer community brought them to life in the first place," commented Adam Saraceno, Peak Design's Marketing Director. "We also wanted to get gear into folks' hands before the end of the year. These are busy times (we've launched over a dozen SKUs in the last couple months) so we opted to keep our Kickstarter short and sweet."
