Hey, I'm Mike and, together with two young entrepreneurs, our start-up Vaiden has launched our first Kickstarter campaign! We come from backgrounds of two increasingly-compatible fields: sports and technology. Technology has changed the we play, watch, and follow all things sports-related. Now, we're trying to continue the trend with the way that we dress when we play sports by taking technology originally developed for astronauts and putting it into athletic apparel. The end product is our Nova Gear Collection: a pullover we called the Heliosphere and a raglan top named Triton. Using this patented space technology, our clothing helps athletes sweat less... meaning they'll stay hydrated longer, preserve energy, and still keep cool without all of the sweating. All the while, the clothing has a sleek, dark look with a comfortable fit.

I've read over nearly every article and post here in the last day or two alone and we still need some advice! If you have any, please let us know. We started just a few days ago and we've raised 2% of our $35k goal so far.

Looks like a great site to me! Really intriguing project and rewards are very reasonable. Good job!

I am your first $95 backer! Congratulations, excellent looking campaign and video. I predict you will do over $100,000. This project is a bloggers dream. Make sure you are getting press releases to Cool Material type blogs. I will like this on my Facebook page. I hope this is the start of big things for you and your team.

I wished my project looked as good as yours,

Good Luck

Wow, thanks Terry! We're trying to send it out to some bloggers and are making a press release as I type this. Have a link to your project?

Your welcome, I think once you get the word out your campaign will take off. I posted on Twitter and Facebook about it, not that a have a huge following, but every little bit helps. I just opened a Thunderclap campaign at Thunderclap.it. That was free and may interest you to promote your project.

@clarkm - Very cool. A while back, I wrote an article on this one athletic clothing company that raised six figures on Kickstarter. Might be helpful for some tips? http://www.crowdcrux.com/5-kickstarter- ... wdfunders/

That's one slick campaign, clarkm! Very impressive - If you reach the right audience, this should go through the roof! Your funding goal is high, but there's a huge audience for this sort of product, so I wish you all the best.
