In terms of pledging decision, project backers tend to focus on three main considerations that affiliate with the product, personal preference, and creator’s background. Moreover, innovative apparels are perceived as compelling, useful, original, and sustainable which explain why project backers tend to pledge for innovative projects. The findings present valuable insights that are expected to benefit several parties in terms of both theoretical and practical contexts. Theoretically, this research provides preliminary findings for future research in similar topic. In practice, this research encourages businesses to engage in crowdfunding to finance their operation and incorporate innovation into their market offerings, particularly for apparel businesses.
