HEST

🚨 Product Launch Alert 🚨 We're thrilled to share our newest HEST product designed to elevate outdoor sleep! 🌲 This time, we're launching a comforter with 100% recycled synthetic insulation—perfect for those who loved our down comforter but were looking for an alternative option. The best part? It offers all the thoughtful features you've come to expect from HEST, but at different price points. 🏕️ ✨ Key features: + Quiet, premium textured fabric + Adjustable footbox for a cozy fit + Top sheet compatible + Easy stowage with a large diameter stuff sack + Subway tile quilting with 100% recycled polyester fill (no hotmelt!) We're so proud of our team for making this happen and can't wait for you to experience it. 💪 Catch all the details here https://lnkd.in/gWa7r4PE

🏔 The best partnerships are definitely forged outdoors. 🏔 I would argue this partnership started in the backcountry of Jackson when Stephen Sullivan I met in the 90s... Sulli was working at Skinny Skis and would go on to found Cloudveil with Brian Cousins. They quietly disrupted the outerwear market with thoughtful designs and innovative fabric usage. Sulli is now changing the apparel world again by building Stio® into the incredible brand and business it is today. I consider myself fortunate to call Sulli a friend and mentor and really appreciate his willingness to present our tiny mighty brand, HEST, to the Stio team. Really thankful for all the hard work by Evan Torrance, Liz Barrett and MJ Carroll to bring this partnership to life. Awesome work! https://lnkd.in/gXewhRRv #dreamerswanted #startup #entrepreneur #partnerships #collaborations

The product development process can be very dynamic and non-linear. From my experience, the best plan is to be open to new ideas, build prototypes and be a good listener when people interact with the prototypes. The Foamy Seat Cushion is a great example of this. We wanted to build a POP for HEST and had the idea of creating a "seat" on the POP to showcase the foam. We had the prototypes around the office and everyone started using them on their desk chairs. After a few iterations on the cover and multiple foam combination tests, we finalized the design for the Foamy Seat Cushion. We did not know how our customer would respond to the new seat cushion, so we only built a limited quantity in our first factory order. Yes- the HEST Team and friends liked using the free seat cushions but there is always a different threshold with customers paying money for a product. We rushed a batch of them to launch on hest.com to learn as fast as possible and sold out in 36 hours. Our second shipment sold out in 6 hours... We now have our third shipment of Foamy Seat Cushions, and I'm pleased to finally share this review from Outside, since we have inventory at hest.com. But based on previous experiences, it might not last long. Oh yeah, we also have the new Pro Travel Pillow back in stock now! #productdesign #iteration #entrepreneur #startup #dreamerswanted https://lnkd.in/gYbXhp5k

🎥 Caught on Camera: Genuine Reactions to Our New Cooling Bedding! ❄️ We launched something "cool" this week 😉 . At HEST, we’re always pushing the boundaries of comfort, and our latest cooling bedding is no exception. We decided to capture the first impressions of our customers experiencing the ultimate in sleep coolness for the very first time. Introducing our revolutionary Jade Cooling fabric. Through thermal effusivity, integrated jade particles in the fabric absorb heat from the environment. Jade’s high thermal conductivity quickly extracts heat upon contact, providing immediate cooling and comfort, especially in warm environments. Watch the video to see their unfiltered reactions and hear what they had to say about the innovative and unmatched comfort. 🌟 Real people, real reactions, real comfort.

I'm thrilled about the launch of HEST Cooling Bedding Collection at so many levels! 🏕 Of course, I love that the cooling bedding is built on a new technology for HEST based on science. The jade-infused fabric creates cooling through thermal effusivity. With Jade's high thermal conductivity, the fabric dissipates heat more quickly. Super cool! This product launch also offers the opportunity to work with talented creatives to make the visuals to launch the new category. I love seeing the products come to life in the stills and motion created by the amazing team. It will be so much fun to share! Flagship Independent Emily Sierra Dan Mohr Dan Norkunas And I've been using the cooling pillowcase on my HEST Pillow at home during our recent heat wave in Seattle, and it is amazing. 31% of our customers use their HEST pillows at home, and it is exciting to offer more reasons for customers to use their HEST Pillows at home or wherever they travel. And finally, I'm excited that we've found another way to help our customers be more comfortable outdoors. This summer has been hot, and I love the idea of helping people spend more time outdoors and sleeping better this summer. Our Cooling Bedding is now live at hest.com!
