"The Bloom" is a bandana design grounded in the natural landscape of the Southwest. Like a sapling struggling to find its roots in a dry creek bed, a lone branch spreads its leaves to the sky amidst an unforgiving landscape. 

There is undeniable beauty in this evolutionary struggle -- as if the the plant's very existence is an act of rugged, defiant, self-determination. Together with the beautiful border design, the neutral, sun-bleached palette channels the rocky, chaparral-covered hills that roll through the region. 

It's a bandana that'll feel right at home on any Southwest adventure! This bandana is Bandits Bandana's fifth collaboration with our friend and Ojai neighbor Real Fun, Wow! and we're honoured to bring this unique piece to life.
