Each week we present to you some of the best products on the planet. Whether it's cool linens or marathon layers, these are the items that you need to shake up your lifestyle for the better...
MR MARVIS - The Seersuckers Catamarans
There's no rule that says summer trousers must be boring. As traditional chinos and cords are folded and stored, warmer weather paves the way for more playful styles, including The Seersuckers Catamarans from MR MARVIS. Handmade in Portugal from organic cotton seersucker, these dark blue and white striped trousers boast vintage flair with modern-day comfort and wearability.
The Dalmore - 17-Year-Old
A detailed exploration of The Dalmore's exceptional single malt whisky and maturation in the finest and rarest sherry casks, the 17-Year-Old from the brand's renowned Principal Collection honours a century-long partnership with Spain's most respected sherry bodega - González Byass - with a rich and flavoursome dram. Finished in Amoroso, Apostoles, and Matusalem casks, this expression offers Seville orange and orchard fruit on the nose, poached pears, sweet toffee and marmalade on the palate, before leaving drinkers wanting with an intriguing dark chocolate orange, dried fruit and lingering cinnamon finish.
NOMOS Glashütte - Tangente Neomatik Update
One of the most iconic watches from the Glashütte-based brand, the Tangente Neomatik from NOMOS' most recent update introduces the patented date ring model with a new, deep forest green dial. The striking 38.5mm face is suavely contrasted by red date markers around the edge of the case, while rhodium-plated hands complete the sophisticated and understated aesthetic. A slender in-house DUW 6101 calibre keeps the Tangente Neomatik ticking, with 50 hours of power reserve cementing this piece as an elevated daily driver.
LOVE BRAND & Co. - Andros Shirt
As we gear up for another linen summer, there's certainly no harm in adding some new hues to the collection. Expertly crafted from the finest Normandy flax and finished with corozo nut buttons, this 100 per cent linen shirt from LOVE BRAND & Co. is a characterful addition to ocean-adjacent ensembles. The Sea Green colourway stands out from everyday pastel iterations and the dual-pocket, safari shirt design adds an air of practicality and individuality to this casual piece.
Church's - Church's Chapters
A new archival project from the historic brand, Church's Chapters is an exploration of heritage and a discovery of unexpected treasures dating back to 1873. Staged at the historic St James Road headquarters in Northampton (where all of Church's production still takes place) this photographic campaign retraces the brand's story through iconic and unforeseen materials and objects, spotlighting the conception of key styles and expanding on how Church's commitment to craftsmanship and quality led it to become the renowned brand it is today.
BAZ & CO - Skin Food Moisturiser
It's easy to neglect the skincare routine once life gets busy in the summer. SPF rushes to the forefront, and all other products fall by the wayside. One consistent feature in our year-round grooming regimen, however, is the Skin Food Moisturiser from BAZ & CO. A balanced and quick-to-absorb formula, this blend of regenerative botanicals (basil, frankincense and juniper) hydrates and nourishes the skin without clogging pores, preventing dryness and protecting against environmental stress.
Asprey - Riviera Marquetry Humidor
While physically lighting a few sticks on the Spanish Riviera would be our preference, simply producing said sticks from the Riviera Marquetry Humidor from Asprey would be the next best thing. Crafted in sycamore with a Spanish cedarwood interior and limited to just 35 pieces, this collaborative humidor (designed in partnership with Elie Bleu) takes inspiration from piano-gloss lacquered Riva speedboats, features a built-in hygrometer and a magnetic humidification system and comfortably houses up to 75 cigars.
L.G.R - Algiers Sunglasses
Traditional style, but with modern manufacturing, the Algiers frames from Italian spectacle maker, L.G.R, stylishly straddles classic and contemporary with its gently geometric pantos shape and distinctive Zambezi Forest colouring. Handcrafted from polished cellulose acetate, these shades have been designed with versatility in mind, suiting a range of different face types whilst complementing both formal and day-to-day ensembles.
Lululemon - Metal Vent Tech Relaxed-Fit Short-Sleeve Shirt
With the London Marathon taking place on Sunday, it's the final call for race day fits. For those still deliberating, this Metal Vent Tech Relaxed-Fit Shirt from Lululemon has the dual function of standing out from the crowd, while keeping the wearer cool and comfortable. Designed with a seamless, anti-chafe construction, this breathable Silverescent mesh tee features a relaxed fit through the chest and waist, with the bold True Leopard Nomad and Night Brown pattern turning heads from Greenwich to The Mall.
Detrash - Gotham's Vigilante 2
The gritty follow-on from Detrash's famously sold-out piece, Gotham's Vigilante 2 is a black-on-black tribute to the caped crusader. Pencil-style hands with yellow lume juxtapose the muted dark dial, while the quick release strap and uni-directional bezel wouldn't be out of place in Lucious Fox's Applied Sciences Division. Limited to 100 pieces, the 41mm case (crafted from 80 per cent recycled steel) houses a sturdy Seiko NH35 automatic movement delivering precise performance from day to night.
