Let's be honest.
The tech industry produces an absurd amount of conference merchandise. Most of it gets used once.
Some of it never.
A lot of it disappears into drawers, backpacks or trash bins.
We never wanted the Flexoptix Buff to become one of those things.
That's why we are doing this differently. Instead of designing the next Buff in a meeting room, we're letting the community decide what deserves to exist.
Because good merchandise is not about printing logos. It's about creating something people actually want to keep wearing for years.
Your Price:
1. “Designed by [You]” — Permanent Production Credit
On every official Buff produced. Permanently. Globally. Not tied to a run, not tied to a campaign cycle — tied to the object itself.
2. Global Campaign Feature
Name and design across the full Flexoptix campaign. Print, digital, trade show — wherever the Buff appears, so does the credit.
3. First Production Batch
A set from the first run off the line. Before distribution, before the webshop, before anyone else gets them.
3. Flexoptix Engineering Jacket
Not in the shop. Not available anywhere. Winner only.
4. Premium Travel Suitcase
Flexoptix Travel Edition. The one the team actually uses.
5. Flight to Darmstadt + 2 Nights for 2
Come to HQ with someone. See where the Buff gets made.
6. HQ & Engineering Lab Tour
The actual facility. No managed tour, no talking points.
7. Dinner with the Team
Dinner at HQ. Not a catered lunch event with name badges and a slide deck.
8. Creator / Winner Shoot
A proper photo shoot. Your name goes on the Buff and on the material that goes with it.
