If you need further confirmation that summer has arrived, this is it: the Cadence Summer Colors are *officially* here.
Life’s greatest pleasures come in pairs of two: coffee and milk, sunrise and sunset, water and sand. Another duo to add to the list? The two all-new summer colors from viral travel capsule brand Cadence.
“Capsules” are Cadence’s proprietary screw-top, leak-proof containers meant to carry your essentials. Starting today, they’re available in Santorini and Sherbet for a *very* limited time—trust us, we’ve never seen a Cadence color drop stick around for long. That’s probably because they have so many fans… including yours, truly.
Meet Our Travel Besties, Cadence
We’ll get you up to speed. Cadence is a second-generation AAPI woman-owned company, in the game-changing business of making reusable, TSA-approved travel containers. Founder Steph Hon is devoted to producing durable, intentionally designed products, and her award-winning Travel Capsules certainly deliver. Made with recycled plastic, magnetized, and extremely customizable, Cadence Capsules are unlike any other travel containers on the market in that they’re intended for repeated use and are spill- and leak-proof.
Of course, their use isn’t restricted to travel alone. They make great additions to any journey, big or small: day trip to the beach, sleepover, gym run. And the contents inside? There are limitless possibilities: mints, pills, jewelry, lotions, oils, and hair care products.
Cadence has racked up over 7,000 5-star reviews and received press coverage from Vogue, New York Times, Travel + Leisure… the list goes on. They’ve also received the New York Product Design Award, and in 2022, Cadence was one of TIME’s Best Inventions.
Color Drops Sell Lightning-Fast
There’s so much to love about Cadence. The size of these screw-on Capsules range from 0.56 oz to 2.75 oz (plus, the Flex Extender adds 1.43 oz to any capsule, although this may make the size surpass TSA restrictions). There are currently more than ten colors to choose from, ranging from limited edition Neutrals and Pinks to warm, sultry Terracotta and dainty off-white Sand.
Undoubtedly, one of the most exciting elements of the entire brand is the opportunity to Build a System of Capsules all your own, complete with labels, colors, and sizes to accommodate your routine. And now there are two more rich, dynamic colors to incorporate (while supplies last).
Limited editions are infamous for flying off the (virtual) shelves at Cadence. Take The Violet Edit. This gorgeous trio was gone almost as soon as it arrived. Luckily, one of the colors (Lavender) became such a fan fav that it’s sticking around as a core color. We can only hope the same might happen with one of this summer’s shades…
Sherbet
This color pays tribute to the sheer joys that this season brings: the salmon pink of fish tacos, the perfect bathing suit, a scoop of gelato or Sherbet. In short, this coral rendition from Cadence is giving summer. We recommend pairing Sherbet with the core Cadence colors Petal and Terracotta for a warm, playful system of capsules that will catch eyes and keep your products safe.
Santorini
Is there anything more “summer” than a deep teal? To every eye, it evokes a different yet not dissimilar memory—far-out ocean depths, jewelry against tanned skin, a spray of cool water on a hot day. Santorini is tried-and-true, and it lends itself to pairing with so many of the core colors at Cadence. A few of our team members opted to combine Pacific, Eucalyptus, and Sand with Santorini for their own custom Cadence Systems evocative of seafoam. What will you create?
You Simply Cannot Miss This
Lately, we’ve loved the look of mixed-and-matched colors (likely the Y2K resurgence sneaking its way into our travel aesthetics). What better way to channel the 2000s than a good old teal and coral combo? If you are tied between Santorini and Sherbet, or want to weave in some additional Cadence colorways (there are plenty), you can also Build a System or design your own version of The Honeycomb, in which each individual capsule (and label) has its own color.
And if you’re lusting after Sherbet or Santorini in particular? You can absolutely buy an entire Cadence Capsule System in one shade. Either way, these are two shades that you do *not* want to miss out on. Shop now, think later––we’ve learned the hard way that sitting on a Cadence purchase usually ends in “Sold Out” (and tears).
