The DayPocket Travel Planner

The DayPocket was funded in December 2016. It finally arrived with me in March 2018. The Estimated Delivery Date was August 2017. So they clearly had fulfillment issues. I had quite simply forgotten I had ordered it until the end of 2017. This is when we finally started getting more updates on what was going on. I think this was only after there was some outcry on Kickstarter. (Reminder to Kickstarter Creators out there – remember to update your backers on a regular basis).

So it arrived. Finally.

The box was pretty battered and fell apart despite the bubblewrap. However, the daypocket was not damaged so I was happy enough.

The DayPocket itself comes in two parts, the cover (I ordered Ash Grey) and the pockets which come separately in a paper bag/envelope. The pockets then need twisted and inserted into the cover, they are secured by the elasticated strap.

I have not used the DayPocket yet as I am planning to save it for my next trip. However, I am really looking forward to using it when I do go travelling as I can see this being a really useful product.

You can see examples of how to use the DayPocket on their Kickstarter Page and Instagram (although there is no recent/new content). I didn’t have a good customer experience so I don’t think I could recommend them as such, but the product itself is a great idea.
