We see ourselves best in the dark.
An experience at the crossing of endurance and the search for yourself.

We live on autopilot.
Same alarm, same commute, same screen, same evening. Everything comfortable, everything set, everything lit.
And while we scroll through other people’s lives, we forget to live our own.
nocturne is a rebellion against that comfort.
For one night, we cut everything. No phone. No light. No audience.
While the world sleeps, we run. Long enough for the ego to let go. Deep enough into the dark that there’s no mirror left.
What’s left is you. Not the version you show. The one nobody sees.
At dawn, you leave with two things. Proof that you’re capable of far more than your routine asks of you. And a hunger it will never satisfy again.
You have to be able to run. For the rest, if you see yourself in this, it’s for you.
One night. No phone. No light. Come find out who you are when nobody’s watching.

A night run by headlamp, inside an immersive experience like no other. 25 teams of 4, selected by application. Each runner is a phase of the moon. One runner at a time. At 6 am, we measure the total distance covered.
Sealed in an envelope with your name on it. You get it back at dawn.
Our own content team handles the images. You stay disconnected from start to finish, to live the experience to the fullest.
The others refuel and recharge.
It’s the only light you have. It tells the others where you are.
We start together. We finish together.
Lights out, headlamps, teams of 4, at a secret location.
A completely different concept.
nocturne × L’Intervalle
Every nocturne edition partners with athletes from its host city. In Montreal, L’Intervalle was the obvious choice: for the running philosophy that drives them, and the discipline and level of coaching of their team. They’re offering every one of our selected athletes a coaching block to prepare for the night.
We’re looking for partners for our next editions: Québec City, Toronto and New York City.

One piece designed for nocturne01 /luna. It only really shows up once the lights go out.
Heavy black cotton, relaxed fit. On the front, nocturne01 /luna set very small at the centre of the chest. High on the back, 25 hairline rings, one per team. They all leave from the same start line; none of them stops in the same place. Glow-in-the-dark ink: it charges under the lights and still glows at 3 am. Given to every runner, never sold.
