“Let’s talk gear, travel, how things are made – and how to make all of those better.” (a new sub)
That's how I described the new subreddit I created.
I’m the founder of a travel bag brand that some of you may know. We originally launched 8 years ago because of hundreds of requests from some very vocal bag geeks looking for a discontinued bag I had helped design. We decided to re-launch that bag and invited everyone asking for it along for the ride. So, two-way communication and transparency have always been a big part of our brand.
I thoroughly enjoy the Reddit bag communities, and have made a bunch of friends here, so, I decided we should have our own subreddit. I wanted to try and take a little different angle with it, though.
I'm a product designer by training and always on the move, and long been obsessed with how to carry stuff, and how things are made. Our brand is the intersection of all those things. We’d love to see our new subreddit come alive with conversations with other people that geek out on these same topics.
We plan to share the behind-the-scenes of a bag brand and bag design studio with anyone that wants to learn more. I don’t want this to come across as promo so keeping the brand mentions to a bare minimum, BUT, it’s in the sub name…
Whether you're a customer, or learning about us for the first time, I hope to see y’all over at r/PaktTravelLab
Cheers
