A comfortable way to keep good posture while supporting your arms as you rest & sleep in your seat during long crowded trips
SITTINGBRIDGE™ announces its crowdfunding campaign ( http://kck.st/12tbsTV ) to support manufacturing and distribution of its first travel accessory, the napwrap™, a comfortable way to hold your arms to help you rest & sleep during long journeys sitting in planes, trains & other crowded places. This Kickstarter campaign hopes to raise $10,000 to assist with manufacturing and opening distribution channels
NAPWRAP is designed to provide complete support for your arms in a relaxed and comfortable position without the need for using the seat’s armrest. Made of lightweight, breathable mesh with a soft bamboo velour interior, NAPWRAP’s minimal design is convenient, easy to carry and allows for the freedom of movement needed while traveling.
“Our focus is to improve the comfort of the more than 1.5 billion people who fly in coach and countless others who travel in buses and trains,” said Mona Dehshid. “We recognized that the position of your arms had a real effect on the ability to stay comfortable in confined spaces for over long periods of time. This problem led us to design NAPWRAP.”
NAPWRAP is a personal armrest for those long, crowded and sleepless journeys. It’s designed to help you relax and sleep by creating a comfortable way to hold your arms. It’s also compact and convenient for easy traveling. In a way, NAPWRAP provides your own personal cocoon. No more fighting for the armrest and worrying about what to do with your arms. Finally you can relax and start snoozing
