With dozens, if not hundreds, of new apparel, footwear and accessory releases from our favorite brands to sort through, I’ve done the hard work and winnowed things down to the absolute need-to-know style, watch and grooming drops that you can’t afford to miss.

This week’s haul: Norda and menswear-retailer-turned-label Haven are releasing an exclusive batch of trail trainers, Giorgio Armani’s F/W26 is finally available to shop, Stüssy and Junya tag-team elevated streetwear and more.

Haven x Norda 003G+ Trail Shoe

Haven and Norda are back like they never left. The Canadian duo just released yet another season-defining pair of trail shoes (two, actually — the lace-forward 001 and 003G+), built to withstand the season’s wackiest conditions and designed to look sick as hell when you’re slurping your post-hike matcha.

I’m almost embarrassed to admit that I’ve been thinking about purchasing Gucci’s new all-over print sneakers. But the heart wants what it wants.

Thermals are back. So are henleys. Relwen decided to combine ’em.

Between the inch-perfect box fit, contrasting topstitching and the Japanese construction, this might be the best denim jacket I’ve seen all year.

J.L-A.L. Shin Loafer
J.L-A.L. Shin Loafer

The Shin Loafers from London-based J.L-A.L. caught fire online last season, mostly on account of their unique, modularly overlayed vamp. Now, the footwear is back for F/W, with a neat finished trim to boot.

Toteme Bootcut Jeans
Toteme Bootcut Jeans

In just more a decade, Scandi label Toteme managed to establish itself as the quintessential upscaled essentials for chic women, with a quiet luxury designer ethos and pricing that, while hefty, wouldn’t absolutely break her bank.

Now, the Stockholm-based brand is making a play for menswear mindshare, and if its debut capsule is any indication, the male-focused collections seem poised for a similar success story.

Frizmworks Wool Half Pullover
Frizmworks Wool Half Pullover

An all-natural wool, ultra-soft half-zip pullover? Korean label Frizmworks is clearly set to give Patagonia a run for its money this fall.

Who knew the 2010s biggest flop would make such a comback?

An homage to the legendary director’s eyewear on the set of The Shining and Full Metal Jacket, the Stanley Kubrick by Jacques Marie Mage collection features four distinctive lens combos and is highly limited. Like, a few thousand each. (Coincidentally, they also cost a few thousand each.)

Very Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind-coded.

3Sixteen Open Collar Shirt

A solid, wear-anywhere shirt is nearly impossible to come by nowadays. They’re priceless, or in the case of this 3sixteen plaid joint, approximately $220.

Gap x Malbon Textured Poplin Baggy Shorts

You sure as hell can’t drive ’em like Daley did — that doesn’t mean you can’t rip some of his swag, though.

Fun fact: The stand collar, knotted toggle closures and relaxed fit are purportedly inspired by old photos of Pablo Picasso.

G.H.Bass x Metalwood Studios Sportocasin Derby Lace-Up
G.H.Bass x Metalwood Studios Sportocasin Derby Lace-Up

The second golf-centric collab to drop this week, this “sportocasin” threads the very, very small needle between shoe you could technically wear to the links and shoe you would want to wear to the club.

Mark my words: In 30 years, tennis posers will be scouring eBay for this exact sweatshirt.

There’s rugged, American-made footwear, and then there’s Easymoc’s new Camp Scout, which was literally upcycled out of a 1940s military tent.
