Re: Skirtcraft wrap skirt on Kickstarter June 6th [2023]

Oh one thing I wanted to mention. I think you talked about having to decide between d-rings and a tie? I'm glad you went with d-rings. I have a few wrap skirts that tie... and while I'm not embarrassed to wear them, sometimes tuck the bow in so it's not noticeable. I like the cleaner lines and less...

Re: Skirtcraft wrap skirt on Kickstarter June 6th [2023]

Hey Joe, I want to congratulate you on a successful kickstarter. I don’t know if you would’ve had any financial loss if they weren’t made (I fear it cost you something to make the design and first skirts for photos), but I’m really impressed that you stick your neck out there for the cause you beli...

Re: Skirtcraft wrap skirt on Kickstarter June 6th [2023]

A few people asked about whether they could dye the lighter ("natural") skirt color. It seems the answer is yes. :D I dyed one using Procion MX fiber reactive dye in the Bright Blue color. It turned out very well, I think! https://i.imgur.com/4eWhwxj.jpg The color is so vibrant it almost l...

Re: Skirtcraft wrap skirt on Kickstarter June 6th [2023]

I would love to participate in the "Kickstarter" program but this skirt is way out side of my price point. Uncle Al :mrgreen: :ugeek: :mrgreen: I appreciate the supportive comment, Al, and am sorry the price isn't lower! It's because they'll be made in the USA and produced in comparativel...

Re: Skirtcraft wrap skirt on Kickstarter June 6th [2023]

Looks really neat. Unfortunately, I have found that wrap skirts and cycling don't mix well. I'm looking for a way to deal with that (extra hidden button or something), but until then I have a moratorium on new wrap skirts. With respect to the fit on the two models: if you're wearing it at your natu...

Less flare? Hmm, I'm not sure. It does look like that with these models/photos - but I think it may depend also on the wearer's body shape.

Re: Skirtcraft wrap skirt on Kickstarter June 6th [2023]

Thank you. I just like the way the skirt falls on the female model better than on the male model and feel like a bigger skirt will flare more. Not sure I know what I’m talking about though honestly. Oh gotcha, I see what you're saying! The model in the lighter skirt (who uses they/them pronouns I b...

Re: Skirtcraft wrap skirt on Kickstarter June 6th [2023]

For the size ranges, if one is at the upper end of a size range (29") - would it better to get the next size up, and cinch it tighter? I'm not a big fan of wrap skirts that have a short overlap. I presume being at the top end of the range, it would have the least amount? The overlap ranges fro...

Re: Skirtcraft wrap skirt on Kickstarter June 6th [2023]

First, let me thank you for doing what you do. Putting yourself out there financially to make unisex skirts with pockets is amazing. Question on sizing. Love the fact that you can change the size so much but in my minimal skirt wearing experience, some skirts are better if tighter and others if loo...

ScotL wrote: Thu Jun 01, 2023 2:20 am So how many need to be pre-ordered to have them made?
This might slightly change before launch, but right now I'm planning on a campaign goal amount of $5530. That's 70 skirts (slightly more if some backers are taking advantage of the two-skirt reward level's lower price per unit).

Thank you! Yes, there will a $149 reward tier for 2 skirts as well as a $219 tier for 3 skirts (plus shipping in either case).
