Merry People has announced its latest collaboration with Obus for a capsule collection filled with vibrant, waterproof pieces.
The first Merry People x Obus collaboration completely sold out in just under two weeks. The two female-founded and Melbourne-based brands have once again come together to fuse their creative energies for a larger capsule collection. The result is an irresistible array of bold prints and colours.
“Following last year’s success we were eager to expand our collaboration line-up,” said Danielle Holloway, Founder of Merry People. “Introducing our taller Fergie boot alongside a waterproof backpack and choosing two iconic Obus prints to use across the collection! We’re really excited to work together again on this collaboration and hope our customers will adore the new creations as much as we do.”
This year’s limited edition collection launches Thursday 23rd May from 6pm and is expected to disappear just as fast! At the heart of this collection lies “Golden Hour”, an original Obus print reimagined for the Merry People x Obus collaboration. Inspired by the enchanting moments of serenity just after sunrise or before sunset, it’s a visual ode to carving out time for oneself, perfectly encapsulated in rainwear that promises to elevate every adventure.
“We know many people missed out on owning a piece of last year’s collaboration including me,” said Kylie Zerbst, Founder of Obus. “So being able to give our amazing community another collaboration feels extra special. This collection introduces a gorgeous new backpack, and personally I’m so excited about the knee high boot!! The ‘Golden Light’ print is an often asked for favourite that’s translated beautifully onto these covetable new items.”
This year’s offering features four 100 percent waterproof styles, all in Obus’ ‘Golden Hour’ print. In two exclusive colour palettes: Dawn and Dusk.
The collaboration highlights four key pieces:
- The iconic Bobbi Gumboot receives an Obus makeover, adding a touch of flair to its beloved design.
- The Fergie Boot gets a chic update, seamlessly blending function with fashion.
- Embrace sustainability with the packable Raincoat, crafted from 100 percent recycled fabric, breathing new life into 21 PET bottles while keeping you dry and stylish.
- The specially designed Backpack, perfect for urban escapades or outdoor adventures, boasts durability and waterproofing while repurposing 65 PET bottles.
With Merry People x Obus, every step becomes a celebration of style, sustainability, and the sheer joy of embracing the great outdoors.
