Ringbrothers 1971 Aston Martin DBS ‘Octavia’
Wisconsin-based restomod specialists Ringbrothers have officially entered the export game with the debut of ‘Octavia.’ An American take on the 1971 Aston Martin DBS, it features a dramatic widebody design, an abundance of carbon fiber and numerous Bond-inspired touches (like the name). Under the hood, Octavia packs an 805-horsepower supercharged Ford V8, and it boasts modernities like C7 Corvette rear suspension.
Columbia ROC Tech Cargo Pants
In the brand’s words, these pants are “overqualified for everyday adventures.” While that sounds boastful and perhaps hyperbolic, they did some testing to that end: Columbia made a rope out of these pants and dangled someone from a helicopter to prove it. Not only are these pants incredibly tough, but they also offer plenty of comfort and utility, thanks to some built-in stretch and plenty of pockets. Perhaps best of all: you can have all this and more for a paltry fee (relative to other, similar adventure pants).
Chronoswiss Opus Purple Rain
The original Chronoswiss Opus debuted in 1995 as the world’s first skeletonized automatic chronograph, and 30 years later, the brand is celebrating its trailblazing model with a seriously special version. The Opus Purple Rain features a Grade 5 titanium case that’s been colored purple, along with the skeletonized dial, using chemical vapor deposition. Powering the watch is the skeletonized C.741S movement, which also boasts purple CVD treatment on its rotor. Lastly, and most unique of all, is the “Magic” strap. Made of white leather, the strap is UV-reactive, meaning its color changes to purple in sunlight. Limited to 30 pieces, the celebratory Opus Purple Rain is priced at $17,000.

UES Heavy Flannel Shirt
Leave it to a Japanese workwear brand to reproduce a perfect midcentury American flannel work shirt. UES used a vintage American Schonherr shuttle power loom to weave 14.5-ounce heavyweight 100-percent cotton flannel with a soft brushed interior. The plaid patterns are direct dyed after the fabric is woven, creating a rich color that will develop patina with age. It is sewn with double needle construction throughout, save for the chain-stitched side seams. All buttons, including those on the two chest pockets, are ivory palm nut. Eight colors are available through Blue Owl, including six plaids, a navy pinstripe and a solid dark navy blue.
Coros Nomad
On paper, the Nomad shares a lot with the best-in-class Coros Pace Pro, including an AMOLED screen and even the same price tag. However, a handful of features would make this the preferred adventure watch for trail runners, mountain bikers and even anglers that crave more data than speed and distance. For starters, the Nomad has full color maps (something missing on the significantly more expensive Garmin Instinct 3), Voice Pins to record notes on specific parts of a trail and a log to record casts and catches on the water. According to Coros, the watch has a battery life of 22 days with “regular use.”
