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: Nike drops the long-awaited Nike Alphafly 3, Todd Snyder teams up with Timex for a disco-channeling two-tone and Whistlepig drops a “dank” alcohol-free old fashioned.

A few bands short of copping the Panthère? Todd x Timex’s latest reissue should prove a more than fitting replacement. The two-tone Q introduces glinty gold-and-silver to vibey ’70s-style dive watch for a one-of-a-kind timepiece that is both totally of the moment and undeniably timeless. Que guapo, papì.

After being teased what feels like years ago, Nike’s latest iteration of the record-breaking AlphaFly is finally here…and gone, because it immediately sold out following it’s January 4 release. This makes sense — the racers promise substantially more miles (various testers are suggesting that peak performance persists through upwards of 250 miles, meaning you can actually race more than one in these bad boys), a lighter frame, new outsole and continuous bottom for the smoothest possible transition. You can still pick up a pair of the crispy “Prototype” colorways on resale sites like GOAT.

WhistlePig Dank & Dry Old Fashioned

One way to celebrate Dry January? Skip the booze but replace it with…cannabis? For Dank & Dry, the Vermont distillery utilizes its reverse distilled PiggyBack Rye ‘Non-Whiskey’ with barrel-aged maple syrup and terpenes cultivated from cannabis grown in whiskey barrels. The end result? Well, it’s non-psychoactive and non-alc, albeit quite, well, dank in aroma and cloudy in appearance. The drink itself is pretty approachable, though, and all proceeds benefit the bartending community.

Released just in time for the year of the dragon, Fendi has teamed up with FRGMT designer Hiroshi Fujiwara to emblazon its pristine wares with the likes of Pokémon’s Dratini, Dragonair, and Dragonite. It’s a touch camp and ultra-nostalgic, and, if we had $9,400, we would obviously grab one.
