Kickstarter can be a fickle mistress, and you never truly know how backers will respond to a project. For instance, we know that they love exploding kittens — they threw nearly $9 million towards a card game based on that premise — and that they're willing to give more than $55,000 to a random guy who just wanted potato salad. But who could've predicted those success stories? What does it take to make a Kickstarter megahit? (Give us a call when you figure that out, please and thanks.)

There's one project in particular, however, whose success should surprise no one, and that's the BauBax Jacket. Billed as the world's best travel jacket, the BauBax contains an inflatable neck pillow, gloves, earplugs, a microfiber cloth, a stylus, a detachable hood, an eye mask, and tons of other built-in features that are essential for smart, modern travel. It's not just practical, though, but spiffy, too, capable of taking you from the airport to wherever the night takes you.
