The Slap-Penz® Story
Slap-Penz® were conceived over a decade ago. The inventors nephew, Kyle, left a typical slap bracelet in his car. Later he received a call and needed to jot down a number. Glancing over at the slap bracelet he thought that it would be great if it were also a pen? BOOM. Slap-Penz® were born.
After going through all the legal mumbo jumbo of patenting and trademarking Slap-Penz® it was time to finally start manufacturing them! This proved more difficult than anticipated since nothing currently mass produced worked for Slap-Penz®. We had to develop a totally new slap bracelet strong enough to write with and to retract the ink cartridge. We also had to develop a flexible ink cartridge that has also since been patented!
Despite developing all of these new components, dialing them all in so that Slap-Penz® work perfect was painstaking. If the band were too strong Slap-Penz® were uncomfortable. If they weren't strong enough the cartridge wouldn't retract. The ink tubing had to be perfect too. Trial and error. More Trial and error. But we never gave up! After a long hiatus while the world dealt with COVID, WE ARE BACK. Better than ever and with a product we are finally proud of and ready to launch on global scale. Our goal is to make the World's favorite (and greenest) pen. We won't stop innovating until we have.
The Journey is just beginning but it has already been long. It should go without saying we have many to thank for where we are today. These include T2 Designs, J-Cad International, iSvare , not to mention a HUGE THANK YOU to friends and family who stood beside us and offered encouragement, advice, and even financial resources to get Slap-Penz® up and running the way it is today.
We have so much planned it is incredible! Very soon we will release a Slap-Penz® with a stylus on the other end for touch screens/phones/computers. We will also constantly be releasing new colors and styles. Check back frequently for updates!
