Hello all, first I truly want to apologize for the long wait without updates... with the bags having multiple issues with fabric shortage, a few key changes and waiting for tariffs to go down in price. I felt like an update just complaining wasn't very productive... I do apologize, I should have just posted as it would have been better than the radio silence... But I am glad that we did solve the fabric shortage issue and even got the final Prototype in just this past month. Unfortunately this update kept getting push back as I have also been moving since July and just now have a decent office set up now with my printers now not buried in boxes to start gathering everything for shipping (I even fell behind on my normal online sale shipping...), and having to work 3 jobs trying to keep up with bills... but enough of my stupid excuses, I have already ordered the bulk for the bags and have a target shipping date in December!!! This upcoming week I'll be shipping out those orders that I have everything for now that I got my printers all set up.
NOW for some amazing photos of the final product for the Maw Ita Bags!
These now come with 4 straps, 2 are the exact same adjustable length max at 2m (shortened at 1m), great for regular backpack wearing, then a short strap of 0.5m (0.25 half) max for shoulder sling bag and one long strap at 1.65m (0.83m half) max for a crossbody. One medium and one short strap together work great for a leg bag, my personal way of wearing it! They now match the bag being purple and offer multiple unique combos of your choosing to your perfect comfort wear!
The front compartment now has an inner pocket to store extra trinkets or another way to organize your keepsakes. With that compartment being deeper than most Itabags you can show off your favorite trinkets and collectables or even for an emergency drink for those hard days at work or con! Also a new feature we've added is a D ring on the inside of the display window, so show off your favorite keychains or even your best badge, now secured safely inside your bag not having to worry about it breaking free. Each zipper has a hole so you can clip on simple accessories, show you can share off even more!

Large back compartment has 2 inner pockets to organize your goodies, able to fit 2 or 3 water bottles in the middle. And a now lowered hidden zipper pocket, also now easier to access with the softer outer shell.

Each insert is reversable, one side is printed with the maw and one side is blank, also now has a simple loop at the top, once you fill up one, you can now hang it up at home to display your extra pins, or easily swap them based on the event you are attending to theme out your collection!
As an additional apology for the delay on updating you all, all physical orders will receive a surprise gift with their orders! I hope you all can forgive me; I mostly do all this alone with emotional support from my partner and a few friends. Now that the move is mostly settle down with small packing left to go, and even more continued unpacking, and now having the space to work I am feeling a lot better with productivity!
I am planning ahead and setting up another update by mid November and see where we are on the bags and update an exact ship date! Hope you are all still excited to receiving these, I am still astonished that we are getting these made and seeing this final prototype in has me more stoked that it is happening! I even have another few projects planned out (with a bit more wiggle room now that I have been though the rough kinks getting these, similar that I had with my first plush). Still love you all for your continued support, I am trying to better about being online and more active, especially with updating you all!
Hello everyone, we are here with our long awaited update! Pins and stickers are finally in and we have already started gathering everything to start shipping them out to those that just got them as their tiers.
We are hoping our next project goes a lot faster and smoother, we are having to stay small on our next few to avoid any near future issues if things continue. If you enjoy our work feel free to follow us our social media platforms or even on here for more projects coming soon!
Alright everyone we want to thank you all for making this happen, we couldn't do it without all of your support on this project!
Now whats next? Well there may be some radio silence as we finish setting up the surveys to send out. As well as our preorder shop for any backers that wish to add items to their pledge and anyone who missed out on the campaign. But with that, our stretch goals are being added as well, once we meet some order minimum they will be available to add on to orders. So keep an eye out here for announcements about more unlocked designs throughout our preorder page. Surveys will be launched in the coming weeks hopefully by the end of the month but orders will not be locked yet, so you can change your choices later if more designs get unlocked. The point of surveys is to get a rough estimate for how much of each item we need to order, if there is a large amount of people liking one deisgn over another than more of those items will be ordered.
Keep an eye out in your emails for those surveys once they are sent out. And please share our preorder page once we launch that as well later next week.
Of course we can't forget that we reach one of our achievements: 50 Backers: all physical item tiers will recieve a free pin added to your order. The final design is still in progress as we decide what special feature it will offer. Again we wish to thank all of you for making this all possible, we are super excited to get these made!
