SIZE

Blocc comes in two sizes: Medium and Large. The width for both sizes are identical. It is based on that of 3M’s protective eyewear, which provides a universal fit for adults.

The 3D models below are based on the dimensions of the average adult male and female head. The female model on the left is wearing the medium size and the male model on the right is wearing the large size.

 

WHICH SIZE SHOULD I CHOOSE?

1. Measure the length between the center point of your eyebrows to the tip of your chin.

2. Compare your length with the lengths shown on the 3D models below.

If your length is 133mm (5.2 inches) or shorter, the medium size would be the right size for you. If you want your chin to be covered even further, the large size is what we would recommend.

 

 

 

ITERATIONS

We devoted all our time and effort developing Blocc over the past four months. Thanks to 3D-printing, we were able to create a number of prototype iterations, conduct extensive product testing, and refine every aspect of the design to ensure comfort, style, and functionality.

OUR STORY : HOW BLOCC WAS BORN

Our team is based in South Korea—one of the first countries to be hit hard by the pandemic.

We often noticed people wearing masks and habitually touching their face out in public. After looking into this further, we found that the average person subconsciously touches their face 23 times an hour (source: https://bit.ly/2APII4I) and that this is an innate habit very difficult to break. Therefore, it only seemed logical for us to create a face shield that would block (hence, the product name) the hand from touching the face. We noticed that some people had already been using them, but none of them seemed to look comfortable or well-designed. This is why we decided to make one ourselves—one designed for the average person to wear in public without feeling embarrassed or uncomfortable.

Our sincere hope is that Blocc will help you become wary of your face-touching habit. With your help, we can make Blocc a reality.

 

RISKS AND CHALLENGES

This campaign is unique in that it began with us delving into a current, universal problem. We sincerely want to see people using Blocc ASAP, meaning we will not deviate from our published timeline and stay laser-focused on reaching the finish line as scheduled. We have 6 years of experience in designing, testing, manufacturing, and shipping products globally. Therefore, we can say with confidence that we know the entire process from A to Z. However, no project is without risk, especially if it involves unexpected occurrences. Should a problem arise that may put us off track, we will make sure to fully brief you of the situation through the backer updates section, act promptly to solve it, and brief you again in detail of the outcome.
