Kast Glove Kickstarter

Has anyone received their gloves? Looks like they may not be the best at communicating with their pledges.

 They are choking HARD!  The campaign has been a total fail from the consumer prospective. WTH?  I can't imagine this bumbling is being well received in the trout fishing community.

I received notice on Jan 5 that it was shipping.  I just checked the tracking.  USPS didn't receive it until today, 1 week later.  Expected delivery on 1/17.

Same as Allen.

I called them prior to Christmas, as it was a Christmas gift to myself from the wife, and was informed of the delay.  The guy was very apologetic.

Definitely a huge snafu.  Hopefully it doesn't hurt reputation and future sales.

yup same as everyone else. Was hoping to use it this weekend but guess will have to try it out next week lol. From the Kickstarter comments, people aren't very happy with the communication....yikes!

Same.  Got a notification that they shipped my gloves, but that was a while ago.  As much as I love these gloves, I must say I'm disappointed in the prolonged delay over what they had originally proposed (over a month now).

I received a shipping notice on 1/6/17, but they shipped today. Should have them on the 17th.

They were fast on billing and slow on the shipping.

If you run your tracking now it should show picked up and will be delivered 1-17-17

I'll have to check on that, been busy with other things lately.  Thanks.

I got mine a couple weeks ago. I was surprised they weren't here in December like they stated.

finally got the gloves today...I got a medium and its a tad bigger than I thought lol

From a few comments on kickstarter, its not living up to it. I guess I better test it out and hopefully didn't get a lemon lol

I just read trough all those comments on kickstarter.

I've seen this happen a lot on crowd funding sites. The thing creators have to understand is on crowd funding you have to communicate. If you have delays just say so; people will understand. Anyone that has ever brought a product to market knows there is almost always a delay in the process. The second thing to always do is take care of the backers before the retailers. Granted your largest yield will come from the retail, however the backers are the ones that got you where you are.

Saw the thread, watched the video, now I want to "get in line" for a pair of these gloves.    Please post up some reviews for those that received them.  They sound like the perfect glove!

Same here. I also ordered medium. Seems a bit larger than I was expecting.

I in turn ordered extra large but a Kast employee recommended large. They are here and are too small. However, quality looks excellent. Clayman, do you think they will stretch much with use?
