Description

Tim West started Bandit in his Brooklyn basement apartment in 2020, hand-packing its first cushioned running socks. The name honours Bobbi Gibb, who ran the 1966 Boston Marathon as a bandit before women were allowed to race, and the brand has since grown into running apparel with the NYC running community behind it.
