Born in the 80s but still prevalent today, the synthwave design aesthetic, also commonly known as outrun or simply 'Miami Vice,' features bright colors, geometric lines and grids, and distinctive, retrofuturistic vibes.
Our latest Seasonal Release, Vice, is inspired by this era of forward-thinking imagination with 2 distinct variations centered around a shared theme. Built on our Titanium Side Click pen model and available in all 3 lengths (Standard, Short, and Mini), Vice features gradient fades, bright accents, and, of course, the iconic palm tree as an homage to coastal culture and after dark activities. The 'Night' version sports a black Cerakote body with pink splatter, orange and turquoise buttons and hardware, and a stylized sunset clip engraving over a pink-to-purple gradient.
'Day' takes inspiration from where the sand meets the sea with a tan-to-teal Cerakote gradient body, bright white clip with engraved palm tree, light pink buttons, and a teal screw. Each pen comes with a commemorative box, custom sticker, and Tactile Turn sunglasses to complete the set. This is our 15th themed Seasonal Release and one we're excited to showcase as the summer months begin to fade.
Vice will be available for purchase starting July 30, 2024 until September 30, 2024

Fully Custom Cerakote Finishing
Cerakote is a thin coating of ceramic that we apply to the surface of titanium pens in our own paint shop. It's abrasion, chemical, temperature, and scratch resistance but not proof. Hard wear will still show on Cerakote but we love that it gives us the ability to put colors on our pens without adding any serious weight or thickness.
