Seemingly more than any other season, the arrival of Spring brings with it all the hope, optimism, and vitality of a fresh start. As seedlings sneak their first peek above the soil and nature stretches out of hibernation, there is a palpable sense of renewal as cold winter nights give way to the warm evenings of April and May. "Spring Awakening" captures the essence of that moment, when the vibrant colors of Spring first make their way through the the layers of cool winter greys and blues, a moment when nature's allure is at it's most inviting.

The design itself part of an emerging new aesthetic for artist Real Fun, Wow! It is a testament to his ever-evolving style that remains instantly recognizable as his own. We at BANDITS are awed at Daren's "spring forward" into this new design space, and can't wait to see the incredible direction it will take him in. Whether you're frolicking in flowers, dancing in the desert, or just siting under the stars, this bandana is perfect for getting out there and trying something new!

REAL FUN, WOW! is the moniker of Ojai, CA based illustrator, muralist, and designer Daren Thomas Magee. Masterfully blending elements of natural, supernatural, and human connectedness, Daren's work is both a perfect commentary and a welcome antidote for our modern times. In his own words, Daren explains "The aim of my work is to speak to the space between imagination and reality." If you've ever been to Ojai, you've undoubtedly seen Daren's work either hanging in or painted on the side of local restaurants, breweries, hotels, and shops. Even if you haven't, there's a good chance you've seen his work. Daren's prolific list of collaborators includes REI, Mohinders, Vissla, CAMP, Christy Dawn, Tank Garage Wines, and Little Blind Beer Co., among many others.

Ojai Valley Land Conservancy

The Ojai Valley Land Conservancy (OVLC) is a nonprofit, non-governmental, land protection organization supported by private donations. They work to protect the views, trails, water, and wildlife of the Ojai Valley for current and future generations to enjoy.

In the Ojai Valley, the OVLC manages roughly 2,300 acres of open space including 27 miles of trails that Daren, his family, and BANDITS enjoy on an almost daily basis. The land managed by OVLC includes a stunning 4.5 stretch of the Ventura River, where the photos you'll see on this page were taken. In addition to trail and land maintenance, OVLC also guides hundreds of visitors, and hosts tens of thousands of school children, hikers, equestrians, and others each year.

BANDITS is proud to partner with Daren to generate support for this vital organization that works tirelessly to preserve the natural beauty of the valley we call home.
