Special ceo/CCO Tony Bradbourne said: “The Summer Never Sleeps campaign has attracted a huge amount of attention globally, and has been a huge success for Kathmandu.

“To be handpicked from the millions of films created each year says a lot about how unique, standout and beautifully crafted the idea is. And a killer soundtrack helps.”

Melbourne-based Kathmandu head of global brand campaigns Michaela Clark said: “We’re thrilled to have continued our work with Special New Zealand who helps us tell our story so innovatively, creatively and passionately.”
