Midnight Rainbow
Some ideas take years to get right. This was one of them.
Midnight Rainbow was inspired by the gloriously divisive original GMK Rainbow. This was a set that split the community clean in half and sold out anyway, because that's what bold things often do. The goal was simple, take that energy, rein it in, and make something you'd want to look at every single day.
Manchester Pride 2019 provided the final push. The colour, the joy, the sheer unapologetic vividness of it.. that's what I wanted to put into this set.
A jet black base (CR black, darker than a Monday morning) with alpha legends in full rainbow order: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple. The result is focused, striking, and impossible to ignore without being impossible to live with.
Why SWG? The original GMK run was brilliant. It was also expensive enough to make me weep. SWG gives you the same Cherry profile, the same doubleshot ABS legends, new 1.3–1.4mm moulds, and the same design (with some updates) for considerably less financial pain. Same set. Better price. No compromise on quality.
The Rainbow Kit adds an alert row (including UK ISO). This kit was created in collaboration with Haldus from Rainbow Alert.
