CLIPWALK™: “Why didn’t this product exist already?”

Some inventions make you wonder: why didn’t this exist already? CLIPWALK™ is one of them.

Now it's available at Walmart.com

Some inventions make you wonder: why didn’t this exist already?
ClipWalk is one of them.

Inventor Heather Sinclair spotted a simple, unsolved problem — dog owners needed a fast, reliable way to go hands-free with a retractable leash. Whether stopping at a café, sitting on a park bench, or just needing both hands, the existing options weren’t good enough.

The answer turned out to be simple — it just needed the right person to see it.

“The patent-pending design lets you simply push the carabiner gate against an anchor and have ClipWalk clip on — instantly.”

That insight is now a real product… available on Walmart.com.

The journey:

Aug 2024
Heather submits ClipWalk to Invention City for a Brutally Honest Review.
Existing solutions — conventional carabiners — get a firm “no.”

Late 2024
Heather sticks with it.
ICity designs and runs a market survey.
Result: strong validation → licensing offer.

2025
Heather chooses to build it herself.
Hires ICity to design and source the product —
ICity joins as a partner.

April 2026
ClipWalk launches on Walmart.com.
From BHR to retail shelf in under two years.

This is what it looks like when:
• You take the feedback
• You validate the market
• You choose your path
• And you follow through

Now it’s out in the world.
If you have a dog (up to 25 lbs), this product will change your life in small but wonderful ways
