BudJet Vest : Garment Made to Wear Your Luggage

THE COMPANY

BudJet Vest Corp is a new emerging company that provides travel-wear and accessories for the budget-conscious traveler. Our signature product is a patent-pending luggage garment that allows you to carry your clothes, TSA-approved items and even a pair of shoes, on your body.

THE PROBLEM

Travelers want to be able to fly without having to pay excessive fees take their belongings. In some cases, they can pay an extra $80 or more just to take one luggage item. They also want to get from departure to arrival as quickly as possible by avoiding whatever lines they can.

THE SOLUTION

The BudJet Vest™ is a lightweight breathable garment made from a slightly stretchable cotton-blend. It has 10 compartments of various sizes to hold clothing, undergarments, accessories, toiletries and even shoes, for a 2-3 day trip. The design allows for the weight of its contents to be evenly distributed throughout the vest for a comfortable wear.

MARKET SIZE

Our initial target audience is the budget-conscious woman but we will ultimately have an option for men and children in future runs. This is an ideal solution for the efficient packer. But it's also a great option for those who pay for carry-on luggage.

Two major US-based budget airlines generated a whopping $1B from baggage fees in 2019! With one study reporting that approximately 19% of air travelers ALWAYS take carry-ons, we’ll estimate $190M of those fees to be for carry-on luggage. At the cost of $40 per bag per way that's over 2 million travelers that could be potential customers.

JOIN THE MOVEMENT

We're excited to finally be able to bring this product to the market!  Our goal is to raise $20,000 to cover the manufacturing costs associated with launching our initial batch of vests and to properly market them. By contributing to our campaign, you are helping us provide an affordable, long term solution to saving money while traveling with your belongings.

Thank you in advance for your support!
