Each week, our inbox runneth over with news of gear, apparel and tech releases from around the world. In this feature, we’ll parse through the best of it. Today: Yet another timely tomato collab from Malin+Goetz and Carbone Fine Food drops, Bandit graces us with running gear for fall and Ralph Lauren, the official outfitter of the U.S. Open, has everything you should be wearing to scout the matches.

Malin+Goetz just took their tomato-scented scheming up a notch (or two). Teaming up Carbone Fine Food, they’ve unveiled a Tomato Supercandle, which burns for up to 80 hours and boasts notes of basil, mint, green pepper and, of course, tomato. It’s co-branded and runs you about $200, but hey, if that’s what it takes to procure a ripe tomato supercandle these days, we’ll absolutely take it.

The end of summer can stir up feelings of depression. You’re oh-so-slowly saying goodbye to backyard dinners, street-bound happy hours and long, sunny days. Yet too often we forget that the blow of this season’s end is softened by the pomp and circumstance of the U.S. Open. Grab a Honey Deuce and head to Ralph Lauren, the official outfitter of the U.S. Open, to grab some spectator-appropriate garb. They’ve got everything from super laid-back tennis whites to much more technical clothes a la on-court ball boys.

Now this is exciting. IKEA meatballs have long held a special place in the culture, and for good reason. You can’t hit the Swedish furniture superstore without nabbing some on your way out, so, naturally, this meatball plate made in collaboration with designer Gustaf Westman was the next step in deploying meatball madness worldwide. It’s made out of porcelain and is just part of an upcoming 12-piece drop. All products will be available to shop on September 9, so stay tuned.
