Melbourne, Australia, February 25, 2014 – A new Kickstarter campaign promoting the product Liquid Wallet has gotten considerable buzz online with over 82% of the total $8,000-valued project already pledged on by supporters in the popular online funding platform.
A total of different 135 backers have made their pledge just roughly a week after the start of the campaign which means the project is just a few hundred dollars away—or exactly $1,403 more—before the innovative wallet gets the go-signal for mass production.
The Liquid Wallet is made of a hard anodized aluminum and measures just 94 x 59.5 x 14 mm.
It features four adjustable screws that allow the user to attach keys to the body of the wallet itself. The rest of the Liquid Wallet functions as a low-profile minimalist wallet, with an easy-use band for keeping cash, cards, and other essentials secure and on hand.
The Melbourne, Australia-based company, Liquid have initiated the project and the prototype was conceptualized by a team of five Australian entrepreneurs who developed the idea over six-month period of creation, revision and testing to what is the final model released in early February 2014.
A day-to-day problem—how to carry keys, cards and other daily essentials– prompted the simple idea according to Peter Mai, the company’s business strategies and marketing director.
“When you think about the things we grab every morning, the items we need to keep track of to get us through our day, it really just makes sense, intuitively, that someone would put something like this together,” shared Mai. “And we just decided we’d be the ones to do it.”
Aside from practicality and versatility of the wallet, the team also realized that style and durability is as important.
“During our early prototypes we noticed that the typical aluminum wallets got scratched from keys and other things in our pockets, so we decided to use a method called hard anodizing, which makes the wallet stronger and resistant to scratches,” said Quinn Nguyen, product designer of Liquid.
The Liquid Wallet comes in two colors, Liquid Black and Military Green, and is completely resistant to scratches and blemishes thanks to the hard anodized coating.
