GANT & Camp Wandawega SS15

Almost to the day a year ago- we got a call from Christopher Bastin, Global Creative Director for GANT. We were thrilled (and in all sorts of disbelief) to hear that this American-born heritage brand wanted to design a kids clothing line, inspired by (eek!) Camp Wandawega. It’s been hard to keep this under wraps for the past year while the line has been in it’s design & production phases, but it’s finally here, and we’re overjoyed to share it with you.

We can’t wait to outfit Charlie in clothes inspired by her very own home in Wisconsin, and we’re humbled to have partnered with the great folks at this beautiful brand. The GANT blog features our camp favorites & ‘must sees’ in the area.

When it hits the racks

Mid March, “SS15 / Spring Summer 2015″ (total side note: we are obsessed with their retail window displays)

Where those racks are located

In over 60 countries, 700 stores & 4000 select retailers across the world. If you’re in London, about 20 GANT stores, alone. In the US? For now, American campers get to shop the ‘virtual racks’ – The global shopping link. (stay tuned for additional shopping links for US shipping, going live this month)
