Randy Blevins has come up with an incredible new way to remove wrinkles from your clothes without using an iron.
So many travelers now a days have to resort to hoping that their hotel room has an iron (and that it works properly). Whether you’re at a conference, visiting a client, or conducting business, you don’t want to show up to your meeting with a wrinkly shirt.
Randy kept experiencing this problem himself. It takes effort to set up an ironing board. It’s annoying. And, half the time, the iron doesn’t even work very well.
From talking to other conference goers, Randy discovered that most seasoned travelers will hang up their dress shirt in the shower and let the steam from the hot water work out the wrinkles.
It was an ingenious solution, but the only problem was, all too often there wouldn’t be a good place to hang his shirt. Sometimes, it would fall off the hanger, and worse, it could end up in a puddle of water.
That’s what led to his “aha” moment and the creation of a product which he now calls SteamClip.
SteamClip is a 5-in-1 multitool that fits right in your travel bag. It’s a:
- Bottle Opener
- Smartphone Stand
- Thread / Tag Cutter
- Can be used to keep purse or jacket off restroom floor in the airport
This makes it so that you’re not only getting an efficient way to steam-smooth your clothes, but you’ll also get a handy multi-purpose tool that can help with many common travel needs.
It works with ANY hotel hanger, making it super easy to steam your clothes and remove all of those pesky wrinkles before your big trade show, conference, or business meeting.
Rather than having to pull out an ironing board, set it up, fill the iron with water, and hope that you don’t damage your clothes, you can just hang your favorite dress shirt in the shower and it will be ready to wear in a matter of minutes.
As you can imagine, I was pretty excited when Randy first told me about this new product that he’d been working on. He was thinking of opening this up to the public with a crowdfunding campaign, where backers could get a SteamClip and also help support the manufacturing.
What stood out to me wasn’t his multi-functional design, or even the amount of effort he’d put into the various prototypes he’d made. It was really his story that got me interested.
The Story Behind SteamClip
Having traveled extensively across the US and internationally, Randy has been passionate about discovering all of the little travel hacks you can use to save time, money, and effort.
The only problem was that there wasn’t a solution out there to help with using the steam from your hotel shower to remove the wrinkles from your clothes. It was infuriating.
After months of rigging hangers and improvising (even trying a coffee maker basket) he envisioned a universal hanger – specifically for the hotel room – that would work every time.
It would work with all hotel hangers and on all showers, so he could use steam instead of the iron on every trip. That’s exactly how STEAM CLIP™ was born.
The product went through several rounds of prototypes and user tests before he even considered crowdfunding.
He first started with rough sketches and tried out different configurations. It had to accommodate all types of hangers and showers that were out there. Eventually, he started to assemble an ergonomic design that would also allow for added functionality. 3D printed prototypes were tested to refine and complete this design.
Eventually, he was able to create a prototype and hand it out to a bunch of frequent travelers. Low and behold, they loved it!
Reviews started to pile in, with people commenting on the ease-of-use, great functionality, and even how it saved money on dry cleaning.
This is when Randy knew that he had to get the product out there. He launched an Indiegogo campaign, which went on to quickly be funded by more than 500 backers!
At the time of writing, you can still become a part of the Indiegogo campaign and claim a SteamClip for yourself. There are only a few days left to get your pledge in, so make sure that you do so ASAP.
