Project Update: π§ββοΈ Production Photos & US Shipping Update π§ββοΈ
Hello Adventurers,
We hope everyone has been doing well! We just wanted to share some production photos from our manufacturer. Please note screenprinting and UV printing have not yet been applied in these photos. We think the pins are turning out great, and we can't wait to see them in person soon!

πΊπ² Update on US Shipping πΊπ²
One of our postal services in Canada sent out an email a few days ago informing us that the US federal regulatory agency, CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission), will enforce new reporting requirements for certain affected HTS classifications starting July 8th, 2026. Temporary restrictions on shipments from Canada to the USA have already been placed (starting July 2, 2026) while the CPSC requirements are updated. One of the HTS classifications is 7117199000, which is what enamel pins are classified as.
What does this mean? Certain U.S postage options are not available for shipping enamel pins from Canada to the USA right now (we are blocked from purchasing those shipping labels). It is unclear whether all other Canadian postal services will also restrict shipments to the USA in the next week. We also do not know how long these temporary restrictions will be enforced. There is a high chance that our shipments may be rejected from entering the USA with the upcoming new regulations.
Since pin production is close to completion, we plan to ship our pins directly from our manufacturer in China to our fulfillment partner's warehouse in Everett, Washington. Our manufacturer informed us that they can ship our pins to the US. They can also handle submitting the required certifications if needed. Hopefully, shipping our pins this way will help us avoid complications with the new CPSC regulations. We will keep you updated!
