GET SOME SLEEP


March 18, 2025 updates.
shipping

Oh man I'm sorry I didn't get an update out on the 9th long story short i've been waiting on 500 or so pounds of products from our manufacturer but with sea delivery you can never quite predict delays. It's super frustrating on my end and on your end as well but the good news is that they finally touched down in New York and are heading to me. I'll have more updates at the end of the week once I know exactly what arrived.

I also want to extend my gratitude to everyone who purchased a steady hands collab cardigan, no cap I definetely feel extremely lonely cleaning up this mess but knowing there are still people out there who are doing what they can to support keeps me going thank you. There are still some available if you want to pick one up! Cardigan

As far as progress made this month, i've been able to clear out nearly 2,300$ in refunds and i'm shipping out in hand orders whenever I can. Progress is slow but progress is progress nontheless. If you haven't gotten an email reply expect it this weekend once I have a better picture of what has arrived. my spirits are high i'm still working and desiging everyday and of course working hard to get this problem past us. and of course if you ever need to contact me imediately for whatever reasons i'm always working on the @howtodorealmagic account.

GET SOME SLEEP


March 2, 2025 updates.
Hello everyone I want to apologize for the lack of updates in february truth be told things aren't necessarily going my way but i'm still trying to persevere onward.
starting with the bad news I've been waiting boxes of hoodies from my manufacturer to ship and I have the tracking, unfortunately it hasn't updated since february 18th
if you've ordered with us before this is a common problem we faced with logisitics but rest assured they are on their way and i'll be happy to ship them once they arrive.
I just didn't want to come on here and get peoples hopes up and have to keep saying "ok it's gonna be another week" I needed something concrete. sorry for the lack of communicaton
The last thing we're waiting on is the "Flew too close to the sun shirt" and then i figure in about two weeks we should have the hoodies and tshirts portion part of our progress bar complete
I thank you for your patience.

The last portion of items we are waiting on is our cut and sewn section lunar new year break finally ended with our manufacturer and we're still sticking to the end of April deadline.

The elephant in the room is refunds currently I owe 16,090$ in refunds to you guys and growing as I continue to finish responding to emails. I am slowly chipping away at this with profits from my newest project.
I hope that with my next update the number is smaller and smaller.
we have two upcoming collabs that we're paid for and designed back in november as well as one final left over drop when everything is done and shipped out
and I am optimistic that it will bring the balance down to 0.
I apologize for taking so long and being so distant.

F. A. Q

after answering emails and dms i've been getting a few repeated responses and i'm going to compile them here.

1. Why did you close Get Some Sleep?
it's been an open secret in my circle of friends that I was getting burnt out running a business, as much as I said GSS was my passion project it was a fully incorporated business with employees and monthly overhead.
circa 2023 our overhead was getting bigger and bigger and we had to do more and more drops to sustain it. I've never ran a business before, I didn't have the hindsight, and I made a ton of mistakes trying to keep GSS afloat.
I was doing a decent job of riding the business as it grew but we had two fatal wounds that made it impossible to continue. One of our manufacturers closed down and sent us into a mountain of debt trying to recooperate the losses
and two is a more private matter that is really hard for me to discuss, but i'll give you the skinny just for context. My accountant discovered that someone was working under my social for the past 8 years without paying taxes
the IRS wanted a huge chunk of money and I couldnt file charges for fraud because it turned out to be someone close to me, it was a situation where I was stuck in a rock and a hard place, I had to pay out. This is why
I did that shirt that said 6 good years and 1 shitty one. I tried to keep going but if you've read my last 6 or so instagram posts my mental health was in shambles and ultimately made the impossible decision to shutdown and I am
left picking up the pieces of the mess I made.

2. Why did you start a new project?
I just love making clothes, I spent my last 8 years doing it, it's the one thing in my life that i'm good at. I've learned from my mistakes I don't want to scale anything, I'm just making small runs of things
to pay off my GSS debt. It's all stuff that is in hand or stuff I make by hand.

3. Did you use my gss money to fund your new project?
this is funny cause i've been getting this a lot, the answer is NO! Over the years of making clothes i've made friends with a lot of manufacturers and one of them offered to front me clothing and I took them up on that offer.

4. Get a job.
I am trying.

long story short I am not looking for any sympathy here I made a ton of mistakes and i'm trying my best to offer and come up with solutions you have my most sincere and deepest apologies, and those of you who are still rocking with me have a special
place in my heart forever. I'm also sorry if you haven't recieved a response yet once again I don't have a team anymore and my greatest weakness right now is man power,
but if you ever need an immediate response to anything you can always DM on my work instagram @do.real.magic and i'll get back to you asap.
I am optimistic and resilient and my mental has never been better, I am eager to work and to help everyone out as much as I can.

Next updates will be posted on 3/9/2024


Projected estimates updated 3/02/2025


Tshirts:

We have most shirts and have started shipping out single items that I have in hand, we are still waiting on the "Flew too close to the sun shirt".
shirts with hoodies will ship out when hoodies arrive.



Hoodies

Our Hoodies have shipped from our manufacturer, but the tracking hasn't updated since the 18th we will get them out as soon as they touch ground.

Cut and Sew / Runway Collection*:

Lunar new year finally ended for our manufacturer and they are back to work, this is the longest projected wait for our items but we healhily estimate to get all our items in late april.*
*These two products are the ones that are delayed the most seeing as our last manufacturer
ran out on us and we had to scramble to find a new one.



We're going to put a big pretty bow on everything and we're going to try to have everything finished by May then we will be closed for good
, my goal is to make everyone whole thanks for reading!
Once again you have my deepest and most sincere apologies.
