Years later, its status as an icon among icons looks as strong as ever, thanks to a batch of new colorways entering the brand’s Made in USA catalog for 2025.
Chief among them? A deep-green variant dubbed “Dark Camo.”
“Dark Camo” is the latest 992 to join the fray.Extra Butter
Dark and handsome
Like the original, this 992 boasts an upper defined by premium suede overlays and a breathable mesh base. However, here they’re colored in a fall-friendly green that verges on brown.
“Dark Camo” green colors both the upper and back half of the midsole.Extra Butter
That hue also extends to the back half of the midsole, which is famously supported by New Balance’s Abzorb technology in both the heel and forefoot.
Reflective accents sit throughout the design, but the shoe is decidedly understated with dark gray serving as the secondary color for the lining and laces.
Abzorb technology is used throughout the midsole, with insert at the forefoot and heel.Extra Butter
A widespread release is expected for the fall, when it will be joined by additional colorways, including Driftwood, Dusk Shower and Rich Oak.

July 7, 2025 / Comments Off on This Classic New Balance Sneaker Continues to Prove Why It’s an Icon Among Icons
Filson’s original wool Jac-Shirt has been a brand staple since the 1970s. However, its construction makes it tough to wear if you’re layering or heading for warmer weather. To combat this, the brand has swapped the traditional fabric for a lighterweight weave inspired by military and industrial apparel. Made from Bedford cotton, a durable British fabric, this shirt-jacket retains its iconic styling but gets a major warm-weather upgrade.

Vacheron Constantin Métiers d’Art Tribute to The Celestial
The next time someone asks for your sign, you can just show them your wrist… thanks to Vacheron Constantin. The world’s oldest continuously operating watchmaker created a series of 12 intricate watches representing the 12 astrological Zodiac signs. Each watch depicts a different constellation on its dial, with diamonds representing the stars and hand-guillochéd art filling in the celestial figure, with each engraving taking around 16 hours to complete. As if that weren’t enough, the watch also features a 39mm white gold case with 96 baguette-cut blue sapphires set into the bezel, crown, lugs and even buckle, with the ultra-thin, self-winding Cal. 2160 tourbillon movement supplying mesmerizing power.
If you have daydreams of racing in the Tour de France (and cash to burn), why not spring for the bike being ridden by Primož Roglič and his UCI WorldTeam Red Bull–Bora–Hansgrohe teammates in the TDF right now? Yes, you can actually buy one of the very same from a limited release of just 500 units. Complete with the team-specific 2025 Tour LTD Blue ‘Sticker Slap’ color/graphics combo, this high-end beauty boasts the lightest frame on the World Tour (roughly 1.5 pounds, part of an overall weight of ~14.6 pounds), plus a SRAM RED AXS-powered 12-speed drivetrain, Roval Rapide CLX III wheels and Spec’s most aerodynamic geometry yet.

The dial is topped with Plexiglas rather than a traditional sapphire crystal because it is far more durable and less environmentally impactful to produce. Scratches are easy to buff out, and it is cheaper to replace.
Just as dependable as the titanium case, a customized Sellita caliber SW300-1 b automatic movement is ticking away inside. It has a 56-hour power reserve and, despite being hidden, a gilded finish and signed bridge plate.
By using this movement, Laventure brilliantly ensured that the Marine Type 3 meets the contemporary definition of a chronometer because it comes with a COSC certification for accuracy, antimagnetism and durability.
Each watch comes with a rubber dive strap and a two-piece nylon strap. Laventure
The Marine Type 3 has an enigmatic but alluring appearance to casual observers. Is it a dive watch? Is it a field watch? Is it vintage or new?
Explaining the inspiration for this watch is a built-in conversation starter, and no one loves a good back story more than a watch fan.
July 7, 2025 / Comments Off on This Rugged Titanium Tool Watch Is an Unconventional Military Mash-Up
First spied by WatchPro, the first Rolex Land-Dweller sold on eBay Live was an unworn 40mm steel model with box and papers and listed by Tanner and Company with a starting bid of $15,000 — a few hundred bucks below SRP. But, as expected, the watch’s price didn’t stay low for long.
When the dust settled as the auction came to a close, the Land-Dweller had sold for a staggering $51,250. That’s more than three times the SRP of the watch and just $2,000 shy of the combined retail prices of a Land-Dweller and Royal Oak “Jumbo.” Insanity.
The Land-Dweller in question, which sold for over $50,000.Tanner and Company on eBay
So, where does the market go from here? There are essentially two schools of thought. Either this first sale was inflated and the buyer overpaid, meaning the price will drop as more Land-Dwellers hit the market. Or the crazy sale price will increase collectors’ desire for the watch, inflating the value even more for future sales.
Given the recent history of Rolex and integrated luxury sports watches in general, I’m betting on the latter scenario as being more likely.

The Portugieser Tourbillon Retrograde Chronograph is an evolution of several processors in the Portugieser collection. More specifically, it elaborates on the Tourbillon Day & Night from 2024.
The dial has a calendar at nine o’clock and a chronograph at 12 o’clock.IWC
Both watches share the 18-karat Armor Gold case, crown and pushers, framing an obsidian-colored dial, which is achieved with 15 layers of transparent lacquer.
Along with the flying tourbillon, both dials have 18-karat gold-plated applied numeral hour markers along a railroad minute track. At the center are the signature Portugieser hands.
Functionally, the Portugieser Tourbillon Retrograde Chronograph has more in common with the Portugieser Perpetual Calendar, also released in 2024.
It has an automatic movement but differs with a simple retrograde date, which registers along a crescent 31-day track and jumps back at the end of the month.

A new lineup of leakproof food jars expands upon this premise even further. And, according to Hannah Mara, the head of food and drink at the brand, its been a long time coming.
Rambler bottles can keep food hot or cold, but the new Insulated Food Jars are specifically optimized for the task.Yeti
“Our fans have been asking for an insulated, fully leakproof food storage solution they could take on the go for years,” Mara says.
To date, Yeti Nation has had to rely on the brand’s extensive lineup of Rambler bottles and cups, such as the 10-ounce Lowball that has become a popular alternative to a traditional food jar.

Originally released as a basketball shoe in 1969, the Adidas Superstar would eventually transcend its sporting roots and become a staple of the style industry. This can be credited to its culture shift, helped largely by the hip-hop crowd (especially Run-D.M.C., rap icons who made the sneaker an integral part of their style).
Over the decades, the shoe has remained integral to the streetwear trend, even seeing a chunkier, more cushioned follow-up in the ’90s (which has since supplanted the original). While its popularity has ebbed and flowed, this legendary sneaker is on the rise again.
As proof positive, take a gander at the upcoming Adidas Originals x Beams Superstar II. This fresh take uses subtle style changes to give the iconic sneaker even more allure.
Some subtle updates, courtesy of Japanese streetwear brand Beams, kick the Adidas Superstar II up a notch.Beams
A fitting legacy
As the sneaker’s name suggests, this isn’t a special edition of the original Superstar; it’s a take on the ’90s follow-up. Overall, it’s a chunkier shoe, which fits with the emerging trends of now (a return to the ’90s and early 2000s).
For the most part, the original silhouette remains intact, as do many of the iconic details, like the rubber “shelltoe” toe cap and the trio of side stripes with their pinked edges.

Dormant for over a year, the ACG Zoom Gaiadome will return in 2025.Nike
Rough and ready
First released in 2022, the heavy-duty hiking boot has remained for well over a year.
However, the all-terrain powerhouse just resurfaced on several of the brand’s official overseas websites, suggesting a stateside redux is imminent.
The ACG Zoom Gaiadom is easily the brand’s most formidable hiker, both in specs and appearance.

The boot also boasts the brand’s TrailFrame technology — a hard plastic cage that effectively locks your foot in place to deliver a stable ride on uneven terrain.

Availability and pricing
Last seen in a Vintage Green colorway, the ACG Zoom Gaiadome will soon resurface in an earthy orange called “Cinnamon/Mars Stone.”
The variant is already available in Hong Kong, where it costs HK$1,799 — roughly $230.

That said, it is one of the most beautiful summer watches I’ve ever come across. Even as someone who doesn’t care for skeletonized dials, I have to admit the application of color and texture to this one is a work of art.
The white ceramic glows in the sunlight, and a combination of brushed and polished surfaces emphasizes the dodecagonal bezel and angular case. It begs to be worn on a beach or while lounging by a pool.
The White Surfer is equipped for aquatic adventure with 100m water resistance.Zenith
While it is certainly not a dive watch, this luxurious modern sports watch is equipped for aquatic adventures at or near the surface, thanks to 100m water resistance and the ultra-durable ceramic case.
Even Zenith’s simplest production models are works of art, but when the brand gets experimental and inventive, we’re blessed with some truly special watches. The Time & Tide White Surfer is the perfect example.

Which may be true, but last time I checked, you can’t copyright “holes.”
And heck, a bit of research reveals that a bevy of (sometimes rather decorative) women’s fitness garments with various forms of laser-cut ventilation, some of which may date back more than a decade.
A hole new approach
Which brings me to Goldwin’s new trail running-inspired capsule, which emerged from a team-up of TechLab, the brand’s research facility, and Nur Abbas, creative director of Goldwin 0, a special branch developing products that are equally pretty and practical.
Aiming for breathability and safety, the five items — a long-sleeve T-shirt, a half-sleeve T-shirt, shorts, half tights and a trail pack starting at a hefty $160 — are united by strategically placed ventilated and reflective panels.

The K15 has a dedicated preamp mode, so you can integrate it into a larger desktop hi-fi system. It also supports streaming over Bluetooth (LDAC, AptX HD, AAC) and Wi-Fi (Roon Ready, AirPlay), allowing you to use it with your wireless headphones or speakers.
The K15 features a wide variety of digital and analog connections. FiiO
Flagship DAC and power
At the heart of the K15 is both a high-quality DAC and a powerful headphone amplifier.
On the DAC side, it features two AKM AK4497S DAC chips that are configured in a dual-mono setup. FiiO says these premium chips deliver “pristine digital-to-analog conversion, preserving minute detail from low to high frequencies while maintaining ultra-low distortion and wide dynamic range.”
As a headphone amp, the K15 features Class-AB amplification offering up to 3000mW per channel via balanced output, which the brand says should be able to drive sensitive IEMs or high-impedance over-ear headphones.

Uniquely, the watch eschews a more traditional crystal (like mineral) for a polycarbonate window. Again, this serves to add some durability — polycarbonate is the same material used in bulletproof glass — while also keeping the costs down.
The dial is minimalist while still being easy to read, relying on simple numerals, a minute scale and strategic lume at the hours and on the hands. Finally, the whole thing is finished off with a NATO-style nylon strap.
For all its money-saving elements, it’s still a damn good-looking timepiece, which likely has something to do with the Maison Club streetwear brand collaborating on it.
The dial and three-hand scheme is incredibly simple, making it highly readable.Naval Watch
Unbelievably affordable
This watch is available in four distinct colorways, all of which are military-inspired. They include olive green, khaki, gray and black.
Whichever version you choose, they’re all priced exactly the same: $57. Yes, you read that right. That’s even cheaper than a Timex Weekender (a similar bargain-bin field watch).

It looks like 2026 is gonna be a big year for Porsche fans who like adventure, as the brand has expanded the 911 series to include three new AWD models: the 911 Carrera 4S coupe, Cabriolet and Targa 4S. Along with the increased capabilities, the cars get more power in the form of a 3.0-liter twin-turbo six-cylinder boxer engine that produces 473 horsepower — up by 30 horsepower from previous models. They also all get upgraded interiors with extended leather upholstery as standard.

The Marshall Middleton II is an updated version of its 2023-released Middleton, and the company is calling it its most powerful portable speaker to date. It has a near-identical compact design to its predecessor, but the second-gen speaker boasts a longer-lasting battery (now rated at over 30 hours) and better and more immersive audio. It also has a built-in microphone to give it speakerphone functionality. Other features include a durable IP67-rated body and USB-C power output, so you can use it to charge your smartphone. It’s available in two colors: cream or black.

For 26 years, the SLR’s sleek, minimalist design has delivered lightness, performance and style for serious cyclists. The fourth generation takes things to the next level, with three streamlined variations headlined by the lightest 3D printed saddle money can buy. At just 137g (~4.8 oz.) for the S3 size, the SLR 3D Carbon weighs 29g (roughly an ounce) less than the SLR Boost 3D Kit Carbonio but still manages to offer differentiated cushioning zones for progressive shock absorption plus strong yet comfortable carbon rails.

From afar, the watch follows the form factor of other Richard Mille timepieces but a closer look reveals the modified Calibre RMAR2 movement with a track-shaped power reserve indicator.

Few films in recent memory have launched with as much Hollywood horsepower as F1 The Movie. Backed by Apple Original Films with a reported budget of $250 million, the project unites blockbuster talent across the board. Top Gun: Maverick director Joseph Kosinski leads the charge, with Jerry Bruckheimer producing and Brad Pitt starring—and co-producing—alongside a supporting cast that includes Javier Bardem.
But beyond the star power and cinematic spectacle, what sets this film apart is the sheer volume of brand partnerships riding shotgun. Chief among them is IWC Schaffhausen, which used the film as a launchpad for a curated lineup of racing-inspired watches tied to the fictional APXGP race team the story revolves around.
Some pieces in the collection break technical ground for IWC, but the most compelling isn’t the most complex or expensive. It’s the Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 APXGP—a piece that quietly masters one of the most debated design choices in watchmaking.
Conflict Over Contrast
IWC
Two-tone watches are formally defined as timepieces with designs dominated by two types of metal. However, functionally, the term can also apply to watches that lean simply into two contrasting metallic shades.
It’s one of the most controversial design choices routinely debated and defended in various watch circles. Some view most two-toned examples as either too gaudy or awkwardly retro, while others argue the design muddles the line between sporty and formal.
Still, many also find the contrast elegant and distinctive, especially when executed tastefully. The challenge lies in getting the proportions, materials, and tone just right.

Hiking shoe season is in full swing. And by that, I mean summer. Sure, a solid pair of hiking sandals can do the trick for watery and more casual adventures. But if you want something a little more hardcore that’ll keep your feet protected without bogging you down like a boot, a hiking shoe is the way to go.
That goes double if you’re trying to ascend more challenging peaks.
Unfortunately, shoes capable of handling that are often pretty expensive. That’s why the Adidas Terrex Skychaser AX5 Gore-Tex is so exciting. This highly-technical footwear is also pretty damn affordable.
With a Gore-Tex layer and Continental outsole, these shoes were made for outdoor adventure.Adidas
Made for adventure
For reference, the Adidas Terrex Skychaser shoes, especially those equipped with waterproofing, are among the brand’s most technical hikers. This version maintains that technical prowess, while offering it at a much lower price point.
That includes elements like a chunky Continental outsole with offset chevron lugs ideal for conquering uneven terrain. It also has an EVA foam midsole — what the brand calls Lightmotion — that’s both lightweight and cushiony for all-day hiking comfort.
July 2, 2025 / Comments Off on Adidas Kicks Off a More Affordable Version of One of Its Most Technical Hiking Shoes
Despite costing under $100, G-Shock’s long-running 5600 Series is among the Casio sub-brand’s best offerings. One of its big strengths is its expansive catalog of colorway options, ranging from mild to wild (like the recent Sith-like black-and-red drop).
However, the latest version, the G-Shock DW5600WW-7, is unique in that its colorway makes it perhaps the most minimalist in the entire lineup.
This all-white G-Shock might be the most minimalist and pristine in the entire 5600 Series lineup.G-Shock
White as the freshly laden snow
What sets this particular G-Shock apart is its complete and utter lack of color. This is about as pale as any of the brand’s watches have ever been.
Over the course of the 5600 Series’ history, there have been other white versions (including this currently available one). Still, they usually have a pop of color or stylistic flourish somewhere.
By comparison, this one is almost entirely devoid of even a speck of contrast, if not for its silver pushers, buckle and gray dial lettering. Of course, it still has the watch’s signature display with its gray background and black digits, letters and icons.

Welcome to “Today in Gear,” your daily snapshot of the most important releases in style, watches, tech, motoring, fitness, home and the outdoors.
The Headphones 1 are Nothing’s first-ever pair of wireless over-ear headphones. They have a similar striking design with transparent elements as the brand’s smartphones and wireless earbuds. And, most interestingly, Nothing partnered with KEF, the British hi-fi maker, to ensure that the headphones sound great. Additionally, the Headphones have active noise-cancellation and transparency modes. And they promise up to 35 hours of battery with ANC turned on.
Ferrari
Ferrari Amalfi
Ferrari has given its Roma GT such a comprehensive refresh that the brand has even changed the name. Now called the Amalfi, this grand tourer still has the same twin-turbo V8 engine, but now it produces 631 horsepower (up from 612), although the top speed is still the same 198 mph. It also has a much more minimalist exterior design, swapping the front grille for a sleeker air intake reminiscent of high-powered aircraft (and maybe a spaceship or two). It also gets a more purist-focused interior design, including a return to a more tactile control scheme.
Rado
Rado Captain Cook x Tennis
Rado decorated its iconic dive watch with a subtle homage to the first sport it sponsored, tennis, back in 1985. Tennis ball-colored dots are placed at 0, 15, 30, and 40, referring to the sport’s scoring system, along with a matching point on the second hand. The otherwise monochromatic design has a gray sunburst dial and gray brushed ceramic dive bezel, and it comes on a stainless steel beads of rice bracelet, along with three nylon NATO straps in blue, green and orange. It is limited to 1,985 pieces.
On
On Cloud X FKA
On teamed up with English musician and creative Tahliah Debrett Barnett — a.k.a. FKA Twigs — for a new silhouette based on the bottom unit of the Clud X 4. The upper, a multimaterial combination of fabric and suede, comes in three muted color combinations. Meanwhile, the longer laces give it visual distinction and flair.

NordicTrack Tour de France Indoor Bike
With Le Tour beginning Saturday, this limited-edition exercise bike is worth a look. The frame features TDF-specific touches including the four famous jerseys, while the bike itself boasts custom gear sets, freewheel spin and even drop handlebars, enabling you to train in the same posture as you ride and race in. With adaptive tech adjusting training in real time, the bike also offers expert training from iFit coaches and the opportunity to ride through premier cycling destinations with cycling stars including three-time US National Crit champ Coryn Labecki and 2012 TDF winner Bradley Wiggins. Note: The bike is expected to ship next month but you can pre-order now.

Nothing Phone 3
Nothing’s Phone 3 is the company’s first true flagship smartphone. It maintains the standout transparent design of its predecessors, but it’s built with more premium materials, features an upgraded processor (Snapdragon 8S Gen 4), and has a flagship-worthy triple-camera system on its back. One significant change from Nothing’s other smartphones is that, instead of a Glyph interface (an array of customizable light strips on its back), the Phone 3 features a small circular LED display in the top-right corner of its back, which it calls the Glyph Matrix. This can show little images or emojis to give you an idea of what kind of notification you’ve received without having to flip the phone over. Also, unlike Nothing’s most recent smartphones, the Phone 3 will actually be available for purchase in the US.

Here’s where things get really dicey. Many outlets are reporting that this is Honda’s first-ever electric motorcycle, but that’s not as clear-cut as it might seem.
For starters, Honda has released electric two-wheelers in the past, including 2018’s PCX Electric. Granted, that (and its siblings) are scooters and not true motorcycles, so technically it still could be considered factual, depending on your perspective.
The bigger issue, however, is this bike’s place of origin. Yes, the bike has a Honda badge slapped on its lower body, but it’s not exactly a Honda moto. This bike is made by Wuyang-Honda, a Chinese joint venture founded and funded by Guangzhou Motorcycle Group and Honda.
Again, yes, technically, you could call it a Honda motorcycle. You could even say it’s Honda’s first commercially available full-sized electric motorcycle. But then you’ll have to explain that it’s a Chinese domestic offering, only available for the Chinese market, with no clear path to a global release.

The Henley Royal Regatta encompasses 26 events, each known by the trophy cup claimed by the winner. Most race formats overlap with the Olympic rowing competitions, and the most celebrated is the Grand Challenge Cup, which dates back to the event’s founding.

Races are categorized by the number of participants, whether or not there is a coxswain, age and gender. But they all follow the same course, which runs “about one mile and 550 yards” upstream from Temple Island to Henley Bridge.
Contestants come from all over the world, but predominantly represent English, Eastern European and American schools and clubs. Some of the top American competitors are the teams from Ivy League schools like Princeton, Columbia and Harvard.

Famously documented by Jack Carlson in the book Rowing Blazers, which spawned the clothing label by the same name, rowing culture has a fashion ethos dating back to the sport’s Victorian-era roots. The Henley, as it is known, doubles as a showcase for team regalia.

In previous steel versions, it relied on a steel click spring. However, with this ceramic one, the brand swapped it for a steel ball bearing and compression spring mechanism to grant it its “tactile, well-indexed rotation.”
To take things a step further, the brand was also sure to make the whole timepiece modular and repairable. There are no press-fit pieces or glue. The entire housing and all components can be taken apart.

Cutsey on the streets, a technical marvel in the sheets
The reimaginging and reengineering of the brand’s signature rotating case is only one of the watch’s impressive bits. The moonphase disc below the dial also went through a complete redesign.
The brand had to figure out how to maintain the proper color blue without losing the 3D effect of the etching. Now, it requires an intensive nine-step process to produce, including applying its vibrant SuperLuminova glow.
