Good morning Starshine, the earth says hello! Our brains are mush like we've been working overnight [oats]. Are we tracking? Stay with us, it gets easier from here *fingers crossed behind our back*.
It's drop week. The Spring 2024 Collection is here and we've been working around the clickity-clock to make it the best one yet. Members get early access tomorrow at 11AM and it goes public 24 hours later. Special pricing on The Membership today. There's quite literally never been a better time to join.
Off to the races... The lookbook, the Nova Crop™ design story, all new Spring fabrics, Mikella Lefebvre-Oatis, and the companion playlist. See you out there.
01
A study in rhythm and repetition. Joe Greer, 40 rolls of film, the Williams twins, Rachel & Mikella, a couple of green screen treadmills, and an LED wall straight out of Bladerunner 2049, the team went album mode in the studio for two days and came out the other side with a lookbook for the ages. Pairs beautifully with the Official Spring 2024 Spotify Playlist . Enjoy slowly.
LOOKBOOK
02
As far as we're aware, the Nova Crop™ has the most pocketing (6) in a women's performance run top ever. Designed by Bandit Co-Founder Ardith Singh, learn about the inspiration, influences, and details behind your new favorite top.
DESIGN STORY
03
You get a new Spring fabric, you get a new Spring fabric, YOU get a new Spring fabric! Introducing Vento™, System-R, Cadence Rib, and Japanese Ripstop. You're gonna love the way you feel, we guarantee it.
NEW FABRICS
04
You may recognize her from every single one of our products on the website, or as a shining star in our Spring campaign. But did you know Mikella is a former Canadian National Team high jumper and a PhD scholar? Didn't think so! Learn about the Bandit family's very own renaissance woman.
INTERVIEW
05
Nothing is official until the playlist drops. The Bandit boss moonlights as a professional playlist maker. Kinda like Shaq or DJ D-Sol, but he's way more into the type of music you'd find at the end credits of an A24 film. Anywho, play this one straight through. Shuffle is for lazy playlist makers.
