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: Levi’s and designer label Sacai drop a crop of new denim jackets with sherpa and leather detailing, and they’ve never looked better. Plus, new (very old) Nike sneakers, a waxed trucker tote and more.
