Our Story
With Rydir I found a way to enjoy a small step of the trip
The night before a vacation with my family of 6, I felt stressed thinking of managing everyone in the family’s travel anxieties and habits. I knew we would all go with carry-ons (non-negotiable!) through TSA, but I thought is there anything else I could do to PREPARE and ease the journey. I thought of carry-ons and my kids’ bags flying off and it hit me. We don’t have to hold onto our bags for dear life or wipe down the security trays. I grabbed some leggings, made my first tube top for my bag, and the Rydir prototype was born. It became such a gamechanger and essential part of our travel routines, I had to share this travel wellness hack with the world.
A Note from Kim
I’m Kim, the founder of Rydir! As a wellness enthusiast and advocate of turning our ideas into reality, I realized it was never too late to become a business founder. As a mom of four and loyal friend to my circle, I always share products and ideas of how to enhance our lives with my people. Travel is an absolute essential in my life and I felt that a community does not exist that merges travel and wellness together. I invented the Rydir band as first of many products to prepare, create travel routines, and enjoy as much of the journey as we can control.
Let’s prioritize traveling well.
