On the Road to Anywhere: SS26

Everybody is on the road to something. More freedom, more connection, more adventure, less noise. We're all trying our best, and nobody has it completely figured out. That felt like the most honest thing we could build a collection around.

So that's what we did.

Where it started

SS26 started with a feeling rather than a concept. The feeling of being in a car with the window down, not knowing exactly where you're going, and being completely okay with that. Early morning sunlight after a long summer night. A spontaneous trip that turns into something you'll talk about for years. The in-between moments that end up meaning the most.

We called it On the Road to Anywhere. Because the destination was never really the point.

What the collection feels like

SS26 lives in three feelings. The first is ease: clean, crisp, the kind of effortless that takes no effort at all. The second is warmth: colours that pick up the light, textures that feel lived-in and real. The third is movement: this collection is built for people who are going somewhere, even when they don't know where yet.

Those three feelings are in every piece.

The colours in SS26 tell that story too. There are the poppy ones: Teal and Motel Pink, the colours of summer happiness, the ones you reach for when you want to feel alive. And then there are the road trip colours: Sunlit, the yellow of dunes and late afternoon sun. Mosslight, the green of roadside plants and overgrown fields. Saffron, the warm brown of dusty roads and sun-baked earth. Colours you'd see from a car window on the best kind of summer day.

My picks

The Saffron case with the Bare cord is the combination I keep coming back to. Tonal, considered, effortless. I love it.

The Sunlit case with the Tiger eye cord for when I want warmth and texture. It's the combination that feels most like summer to me right now.

And the Pearl drop cord 2.0 with our clear case on days when I want the cord to do everything and the case to disappear. The pearls move beautifully and they're made from recycled material, which still makes me happy every time I think about it.

How to wear it on the road

A long cord worn crossbody so your hands are free. A case colour that works with whatever you threw on this morning. A bag charm on your tote if you want to go further. The idea was always that this collection should work for real life: a market, a flight, a long lunch, an evening you didn't plan.

We made it for the road. Whatever road that is for you.
