Anywho, Boston Marathon was a truly epic time with local and global friends coming together to hang with us at our Newbury Street pop-up, and also run 26.2 miles like the absolute champions they are *golf clap*.

Next up, a huge announcement for Bandit today as we officially welcome celebrated film photographer and marathon runner, Joe Greer to the team as a Bandit Athlete and Creative Partner. To say we're excited for what's to come would be the understatement of all understatements. Stay tuned.

This week, an interview with Mr. Greer, a video with Miss Outside, a freshly baked new episode of Fast & Loose, and throwbacks to our Kofuzi profile and a look inside our community-centered design process. To all our friends heading to London, good luck and dogspeed.
