Wow. We hit the 400% goal already? That's absolutely insane. So let's talk about what that means! As a reminder, all funding from this project is going towards rebuilding; we're not paying ourselves until we're back open.

At the 250% funding tier, we were set to re-open Nomad Complex and resume business on June 1st. A fantastic milestone. At this funding tier, we would be able to re-open our store with designs from this project as well as maybe 1 or 2 new items. This would only encompass the graphic work that we do - T-shirts, Tanks, Hoodies, and anything with the large graphic prints.

At the 400% funding tier, we are now able to open with a much WIDER variety of stock than the previous tier. This means not only will we be able to fund some additional designs, but we'll also be adding the following come June 1st;

-Stickers / Enamel Pins / Wristbands
-Gaming Mats
-NEW Wall Scrolls
-Some fun lil' surprises. 👀

"Hey Nomad you dicks if you're opening June 1st why am I pledging now lmao can't I just buy stuff in June, nice grift"

You absolutely could! But just wanted to take a quick moment to remind everyone about the benefits of this campaign that is ultimately jump-starting our relaunch and why it's a great idea to get in on this project.

-Half-ish price shipping
-18-25% off eventual MSRP (Manu's Suggested Retail Price)
-An enamel pin with every garment ($10+ value per garment)
-The coolio book of LORE

tl;dr - You're showing up, and we're here to make it worth your while. Thank you for believing in us! 💛

We’re getting the proofs for the enamel pins now. I’m so sorry we’re like this. And yes they will all say this on the back.

WE'RE AT THE HALFWAY POINT!

The campaign has already existed for half of its total lifespan. You've got two and a half weeks to get your pledges in before the campaign ends! We thought we'd take this time to remind you of the benefits of this campaign just in case you were on the fence!

All clothing is 18-25% off MSRP AND in CAD! - All of our clothing for this campaign is 18-25% off the Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price.

You get a FREE Enamel Pin With Each Garment! - With every garment you pledge for, you get the matching enamel pin for FREE! (A $12 value EACH). So let's say you get 5 t-shirts for $175. You also get 5 enamel pins. That's an extra $60 of value on top of your pledge!

Reduced SHIPPING Cost! - The shipping costs for this campaign are up to HALF off! We’re covering the other half for you!

You get our FREE Art Book with a $200+ Pledge! - Get our 2016-2023 Graphic Art Book for FREE when you pledge over $200 CAD!

-

Let's break down the "I want everything, GIMME" tier to see what we mean. For a $195 pledge, you get a T-shirt, Tank Top, LST and Hoodie of your choice at the cheaper price. You also get 4 free enamel pins. You ALSO get our Art Book for free with that too. Combine that with half price shipping? You are getting almost $300 worth of value with the freebies and saved costs.

DON'T FORGET!

-You can increase/decrease/adjust your pledges at ANY time between now and February 18th!

-You can pledge at any time - You won’t be charged until the campaign completes on February 18th!

Our staff is on a small vacation this weekend, so we’ll be providing an update on hitting our next stretch goal at the beginning of the following week and what that means! Yes, a vacation. I know, it’s weird.

Thank you for all of the support on this campaign. 💛

Today is Nomad Complex's 8th year anniversary.

Right now, we're still in the midst of regrouping and coming back stronger than ever. More staff, more designs, more options and more sizes. We know y'all have put a lot of faith in us, and we will never take that for granted. Thank you so fucking much for continuing to believe in us, even if we stumble sometimes.

Please remember to be kind. We don't always know what a person may be going through. We don't always know all of the facts. Let's lead with kindness and remember that every person on this planet is doing their best, and living as full and complex a life as we are. Treat each other well.

I'd smooch all you weirdos if I could.

💛

Good morning you hot ass bitches, GUESS WHAT. It's the FINAL week of our relaunch campaign.

You have until February 18th at 11:59pm to make your pledge OR make any adjustments to your pledge. Over the next week we'll be reminding everyone of this, and also rolling out some info cards on how the pledge process is going to work. For those experienced with this, we will be using BackerKit again to fill out our surveys and collect your size, design and address info. More information on that to come in the upcoming week!

As a reminder; you can pledge at ANY TIME between now and February 18th! Your method of payment will not be charged until the campaign is completed and if we hit our goal.

But for now; Tick tock, animal people. THE FINAL WEEK IS UPON US.

They gave me caffeine this morning instead of decaf, woops.

✨OUR NEXT STRETCH GOAL - U.S. BASED WAREHOUSING FOR CONVENTIONS.✨

With 5 days left, the 2nd last stretch goal is in sight. As most of you know, we are based in Vancouver, Canada. This makes travelling across the border for USA-based conventions VERY difficult. Some of you have heard the horror stories we've been through. We have not sold physical goods at a con since 2019 because of this.

At this goal, we will be able to put into motion a U.S. based warehousing solution so that we can begin attending conventions regularly!

So what's the plan?

The plan is to secure a U.S. based address and storage location that we can operate out of for conventions. This will allow us to house inventory to sell physically at conventions without needing to cross the border each time, as well as our booth display supplies such as signage, stanchions and merchandising grids/walls. It also means we can maintain the staff necessary to pull this off!

At our size and with the nature of what we sell, this requires a LOT of space and packing - Much more than a couple suitcases. We're talking palettes. Having a U.S home base for this will increase our ability to be present in the dens dramatically, with much more elaborate setups AND much more inventory + goodies to hand out!

We're already in talks with a potential location and we're pretty much set to go! The goal is to get back on the ground so we can see all of your beautiful faces at conventions. Let's hope we can make it!

There are 3 days left in the Relaunch Campaign which means we are legally obligated to inform you of that fact using the Majoras Mask "## hours remain" meme.

You've got THREE DAYS LEFT to make your pledge, adjust your pledge, or otherwise get in on the campaign! The last 3 days are usually the busiest so that stretch goal is still in sight! 👀

If you have any questions regarding pledges, or of any kind, please e-mail us at;

support@nomadcomplex.com

And we'll get to you ASAP!

Oh orders are already being packed up btw. Our manufacturer (Who btw is like 5 minutes from our house, score) is working overtime, nightshifts and everything else to get this shit done. Big kudos to all of them for being amazing.

Basically; Stuff gets printed > It's dropped off daily > We're picking out what we can ship > It's gettin' packed up. We're super on schedule! This will still be a month-long+ process, so don't forget to check the main KS page for expected timelines.

"Wtf Nomad, isn't that your old warehouse? Wow we knew you were shit-grifters, unfollowed"

Longtime listeners will see that yep, we ARE indeed still in our old warehouse. Through a combination of external support, arguing passionately and an offensive rent hike - We are still in our cozy home here in Vancouver, BC. We'll be working on some videos for relaunch time explaining the decision and how that came to be. For now we're at home, in our element and getting yalls clothes out the door.

💛

Sorry to double post - We kept the book cover simple. That was the right call.
