The things you should be spending your cash on this week, from a limited edition jar of Heinz sauce to one of Mulberry's super luxe messenger bags
Words: Zak Maoui
Each week we present to you some of the best gear on the planet. Whether it's a pair of weekend-ready Russell & Bromley sneakers or a Maeving motorcycle that will make you want to escape the city, these are the products you need this week to shake up your lifestyle.
With a top speed of 70mph, a range of 80 miles, and more than double the power of the RM1, the Maeving RM1S is a serious ride. Fully electric, the British brand's motorcycle uses a 7.0 kW, 10.5 kW peak motor. What's more, the RM1S is a sleek and handsome bike, ideal for urban riding and country roads alike.
Russell & Bromley puts decent craftsmanship first, and that's why its shoes last. The same goes for these sneakers. Crafted in Portugal from grained white leather, they feature blue suede panels and a chunky grip sole. Not only are they sturdy and well-made, they also look the part.
In the 1972 movie The Godfather, Peter Clemenza teaches a young Michael Corleone to cook pasta. "Hey, come over here, kid, learn something. You never know, you might have to cook for 20 guys someday. You see, you start out with a little bit of oil. Then you fry some garlic. Then you throw in some tomatoes, tomato paste, you fry it; you make sure it doesn't stick. You get it to a boil; you shove in all your sausage and your meatballs. And a little bit of wine. And a little bit of sugar, and that's my trick..." And so Heinz has dropped a new limited edition sauce, inspired by Clemenza's meatballs.
Mulberry's Skye Messenger bag is engineered for the elements, and is composed of a durable small grain calf leather and a refined, breathable canvas. Sealed with Mulberry's iconic Postman's Lock, it's a must-have for outdoorsy guys everywhere. Or those who just like nice things.
Crafted from a premium cotton twill, and featuring a vegan leather strap, Love Brand's Rose Cap is named after Rose Island in the Bahamas, a beautiful uninhabited island off New Providence. But you don't need to be in the Bahamas to enjoy it. One to whip out this spring.
This is the world’s first 1/4 strength Tequila. It delivers all the flavour and experience you’d expect from a full-strength liquid, just with a fraction of the alcohol. Distilled and blended here in the UK, it's ideal for use in margaritas or simply as a shot.
Everyone needs an Oxford shirt. It's a classic item. Dressed up with loafers and chinos, or dressed down with a pair of shorts and open over a T-shirt, it's the most versatile shirt you can own. This one from American label Le Alfré is handcrafted with soft and comfortable Portuguese fabric.
A Pebax-Powered trainer, the Eliot Runner from Tracksmith is inspired by the pep of New England’s natural surfaces. This neutral running shoe is an all gender style, and is largely the product of a shared thought at the Tracksmith HQ - that finding a smooth, natural path when running is an unbeatable moment. Just like the humble earth, these are soft, resilient, responsive and ready for anything.
Paul & Shark has reworked an archival classic through an urban lens, and this shacket shakes things up. It has been crafted from technical cotton canvas with a soft, yet resistant texture, and it has an oversized fit. P&S has gone jumbo on the pockets, which provide space for anything you wish to carry round.
