Words: Zak Maoui
Each week we present to you some of the best gear on the planet. Whether it's Mercedes' electric G-Wagen, Nothing's newest earphones or a bike from Cervélo, these are the products you need this week to shake up your lifestyle.
Nothing earphones
Nothing might be best known for its Android phones, but it's the label's earphones that we're hooked on. These eye-catching yellow Nothing (a) earphones have a 45 dB active noise cancellation, powerful dynamic 11 mm driver and next-level sound with LDAC. What's more, they provide 42.5 hours of listening time. That's a hell of a lot of sound packed into these tiny earphones.
Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen
The Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen has long been a sought-after vehicle, with its roots in military, but now a common sighting in big cities around the world. Now, in line with the universal move away from gas-guzzling vehicles, it pulls up in an electric version. The G 580 with EQ Technology can travel up to 294 miles with a top speed of 112 mph, while it can go 0-60 in roughly 4.5 seconds.

GH Bass loafers
GH Bass began in Maine in 1876, when George Henry Bass began working as a junior partner at EP Packard and Co.

Cervélo Áspero bike
Built on the original game-changing 2019 model, Cervélo's new Áspero has some improvements: a threaded BB shell, neater cable routing, and a UDH-compatible derailleur hanger for those who want to use SRAM’s Transmission drivetrains. It's also more aero, which the brand explains won't have a huge effect on your speed, but you'll conserve body energy.
Penfolds Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz
With a rich, deep body, and combining the structure of Cabernet with the richness of Shiraz, Bin 389 exemplifies why Penfolds is our go-to for a decent red. It balances fruit and oak, and makes for an aromatic wine that has subtle mocha and coffee flavours.

The kicking off with the third and final part of the trilogy series – Sowing Edition (Third Crop).
