Bandits Bookshop is a Melbourne-based online bookshop that grew out of my own shelves. What started in 2024 as a way to part with some of my personal collection eventually turned into a full-time pursuit of the books I spent years hunting for but could never find in a typical store.

​

Named after my cat and mascot, the shop is an independent, DIY space that functions more like a shared library than a standard retail website. My focus is on rare and out-of-print titles across photography, art, fashion, and counterculture. 

​

Everything here is guided by personal taste. It’s about giving life back to the titles that risk being overlooked and creating a place for people to stumble upon something they didn't know they needed. Everything at Bandits is here because it’s something I’ve lived with and loved. It’s less about being a shop and more about sharing those specific, hard-to-find titles. I'm always looking for the ones with enough visual power or cultural weight to actually earn a spot on the shelf.
