Tactile Turn Release Types: Limited, Seasonal, and Shop Series
We offer several special release types beyond our ongoing products. Here’s what each one means, how often they happen, and how to stay updated.
Limited Releases
What it is: Small-batch, quarterly drops featuring special finishes, new or exotic materials, unique one-off designs, and experimental ideas.
- Cadence & timing: Once per quarter, typically Tuesday at 12:00 PM Central (US).
- How we announce: Previews on Instagram and email announcements with launch details.
- Availability & restocks: Some are one-and-done; others may return if there’s strong interest.
- Tip: Limiteds can sell out quickly—be ready at launch time.
Seasonal Releases
What it is: A quarterly themed collection with a wider window to buy.
- Cadence & duration: Once per quarter; runs for 60 days (unlimited quantity during the window).
- What’s included: Themed pen design(s), custom packaging, a free themed item, and a special sticker.
- Availability: Order any time during the 60-day window—no scramble required.
Shop Series
What it is: A drop aimed at pure experimentation from our shop team.
- Cadence & timing: No set schedule—sporadic and fairly rare.
- What to expect: New materials we’ve never tried, off-the-wall concepts, and surprises like a mystery pen blind box.
- Good to know: If you see a Shop Series drop you like, grab it—there may never be another run.

FAQ
Are Limited releases ever restocked?
Sometimes. If a design is especially popular, we may do another batch or a future variation. Using “Notify Me” helps us decide.
Can I buy Seasonal releases after 60 days?
No. Seasonal collections close at the end of their 60-day window.
How will I know about a Shop Series drop?
We’ll announce it on Instagram and via email when it happens—there’s no advance schedule.
