The Story: Curating the Best of the Underground

At Maats, we don’t just stock brands; we hunt for the exceptions. The unique drops that stop us in our tracks. Laser Barcelona has been firmly on our radar for a while now, quietly producing some of the most rad, authentic independent apparel in Europe. When they announced their latest project, we knew we had to bring a piece of Barcelona's underground culture directly to you.

The Capsule: El Rawal Artist Series

Laser’s signature The Rawal Artist Series invites global creatives to portray one of Barcelona’s most vibrant, gritty, and culturally diverse downtown neighborhoods: El Rawal.

For this highly limited capsule, they teamed up with Rotterdam legend Joren Joshua. Known for his witty, fluid line work and distinct character style, Joren has crafted a beautiful, cycling-inspired collection that perfectly bridges the gap between raw street art and bike culture.

The Launch & Celebration

To celebrate this exclusive drop, we’re doing what we do best: riding bikes and raising a glass.

Expect a vibey social ride, an exclusive first look at the capsule, and cold drinks to celebrate the collaboration.

Sunday 06-09, Col du Vam, Drenthe.

Social rides, trips abroad, spring classics — but as summer draws to a close, it's time to settle the score. Who gets to call themselves the Maats Membership Champ (m/v) of the 2026? 

Introducing the first official Maats Membership Championship.

We’re bringing the event to one of the most iconic climbs in Dutch cycling: the Col du VAM. Rising from the Drenthe countryside, this unique climb was born from an unlikely origin, a former landfill site transformed into a legendary cycling challenge.

With an average gradient of 9.1%, the Col du VAM delivers a true test of power and endurance, taking riders up to 48 metres above sea level.

The venue has hosted the Dutch National Championship on multiple occasions, so it's a proven championship course. The perfect setting to find out who's been putting in the work.

We gather Sunday morning at 10:00 for coffee and a social group ride of around 75km around the area.  After returning to the Col du Vam, we take to the track for a few laps to decide once and for all who takes the title.

After the racing, we celebrate with a BBQ, beers, and an official prize ceremony.

This event is open to all members — whether you're here to race, to ride, or just to cheer on the competition, you're more than welcome.

Monday August 31th, 10:00 Maastricht

When we started Maats a few years ago, Monday was our only day off for a long period. Because we started Maats from the love for cycling, there was always riding that day. On the day when most people were in the office or at work, we rode our bikes every Monday. Maats Monday was born.

In recent years we rode some cool routes during Maats Mondays. We often got the question from people if they could join. Thats why we are organizing the Maats Monday: Limburg Edition, on Monday August 31th.
