Chicago fashion tech company Everpurse has abandoned production of its eponymous product and shifted attention to pursuing deals with national fashion brands, but not before leaving a trail of angry customers who placed orders that were never filled.
After at least a year of complaints from customers who have paid for bags, Everpurse told them in an email early Thursday morning that it is on the verge of announcing new products in collaboration with a top fashion brand that will allow it to fufill orders. Some customers have had orders pending for more than a year. It is the first communication some of them have received in months.
