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 them. Today: A new Todd Snyder x Peanuts collab, a personalized bottle of Crown Royal and a Buck Mason peacoat.
Canvino
Yes we can? More like yes we canned wine (joke copyright 2008). This gluten-free, vegan brand is about sustainability, convenience, taste, and empowering female winemakers (we’ll have samples in and a review up soon). Also: Chris Carrabba of Dashboard Confessional is a major investor. Hopefully his interest here will be… vino-dicated (joke copyright 2004).
Trojan Tantrix Male Pleasure Sleeve
The Condom King is now dipping its toes into the sex toy game with a brand new pleasure device: The Trojan Tantrix Pleasure Sleeve. What exactly is this? Designed for solo or couples play, the Tantrix is a soft, handheld textured sheet “designed to enhance every stroke.” We suspect you will know what do from here.
Buck Mason Melton Admiral Peacoat
It’s truly bewildering that, considering the number of near-identical peacoats out there, so many brands don’t get the details right. This new addition from Buck Mason, thankfully, seems to rectify that. We’re talking a heavyweight blended Melton wool paired with a Japanese brushed satin lining and corduroy stuffed pockets. Oh, and they didn’t forget the classic anchor buttons.
Field Company Field Cast Iron Dutch Oven
The great Dutch oven wars just got another contender, this time from Kickstarter success story Field Company. They’ve built a cult following from their lightweight cast-iron skillets and are finally adding to their lineup after a few years with a raw (as in no enamel coating), pre-seasoned Dutch oven made right here in the U.S.
Outdoor Voices OV Adjustable Face Mask
Outdoor Voices recently gave its performance face masks a major upgrade. For $28, you can grab a 5-pack of dual-layered, ultra-breathable and now fully-adjustable face masks, all still crafted with OV’s Textured Compression. The masks feature easily adjustable straps and are available in Charcoal or Deep Sea, so you can keep safely #DoingThings.
Aimé Leon Dore Player 99 Holiday Sweater
For its FW19 drop, Aimé Leon Dore paid homage to Michael Jordan with a two-tone knit sweater featuring an iconic image of the basketball great. This year, the New York City-based brand released three new festive versions of the sweater, adding a bit of holiday spice — a.k.a snow. Still, if you’re looking to seriously impress at next year’s ugly Christmas sweater party, here’s your chance.
James° × Topo Designs: Holiday Capsule
The James Brand, known for its well-crafted, minimalist everyday carry knives has released a holiday collection in partnership with Top Designs. The 3-piece collection is made up of the EDC brand’s Ellis Knife and Hardin Carabiner, both anodized in a festive blood orange, while Topo crafted a durable pouch for easy, daily carry.
Tax the Rich Sweatshirt
On Wednesday, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez unveiled a new line of merch on her official store and unsurprisingly caught flack from her ardent critics over the “expensive” $58 price tag on a sweatshirt with the phrase “Tax the Rich.” Of course, AOC and others on Twitter had to explain that the sweatshirts were made by unionized American workers who are paid an actual liveable wage. Perhaps if everyone also received a fair, minimum income, an ethically sourced $58 sweatshirt wouldn’t sound so crazy.
Bluestone Lane x YETI
Australian premium coffee purveyor Bluestone Lane has teamed up with YETI, the brand that makes everyone’s favorite vessels to consume said coffee. You can shop the limited edition YETI Wildly Stronger Roast, a whole bean coffee roast with notes of fresh oak, vanilla, caramel and dark chocolate, in three gift-ready packs.
Taylor Stitch x Stetson
One new brand we love collabs with one heritage brand on four new pieces, with one dropping each Thursday in December. First up: The Packable Lane Splitter (available in mushroom and espresso colorways) — constructed with crushable wool felt, which makes it easy to pack, true, but it’ll also take back its form when you need it.
The Hemingway Inshore Collection
“Inspired by Ernest Hemingway’s missing tackle trunk that was lost on the Railway Express in 1939.” Built for saltwater expeditions, these are limited edition caps, layers, jackets, fly rod kits, boats, paddle boards and more, as overseen by the author’s great-grandson.
Todd Snyder x Peanuts City Collection
Each month seems to yield at least one Peanuts collaboration, and for December the iconic cartoon characters teamed up with Todd Snyder for a collection of hoodies and sweatshirts. The City Collection features Snoopy (occasionally accompanied by his best friend Woodstock) in a range of international locales, from Brooklyn to Tokyo, all while sporting garb inspired by the locations. For the designs, Snyder took inspiration from the Peanuts-themed memorabilia he’s amassed over the years, as well as graphics from the Peanuts archive. The result is a collection of soft and warm midweight sweatshirts given a vintage edge thanks to Snoopy.
OREO x Lady Gaga
This week, the official Twitter account for OREO tweeted out a new limited edition cookie flavor, inspired by pop singer Lady Gaga’s latest album Chromatica. While we’re still not sure when these vibrantly unnatural pink and green cookies will be available, you can expect them to taste like a Golden OREO.
