Meet Kostüme: the cycling brand taking a new approach

With a perfect 10/10 review for their bib shorts, the use of 100% recycled fabrics and completely unique-looking kit, cycling apparel brand Kostüme are slowly making a name for themselves alongside some of the biggest and best-known brands in cycling – from Rapha to Pas Normal Studios.

I caught up with found Ed Bartlett who talked me through all things Kostüme – from their unique pre-order only business model which cuts waste, collaborating with artists for exclusive and unique designs, and their award-winning bib shorts; to the state of the cycling industry, greenwashing, and more.

We also discussed collaborating with artists Kai & Sunny, Alive Irwin and Remi Rough; designing kit for Audax Club Bristol; finding wonder fabrics after hours of searching; and future plans
