- Words: Dan Scothern
Each week we present to you some of the best products on the planet. Whether it's smart jewellery or collaborative shirting, these are the items that you need to shake up your lifestyle for the better...
SPOKE - Linen Stripe Shirt
Dressed up or down, the classic linen shirt is an undoubted summer staple. Pairing effortlessly with a tailored trouser in the evening, or a dampened swim short coming off the beach, there aren't too many ways one can go wrong. Crafted from a soft, deep-washed linen, and available across seven chest sizes, two cuts and three lengths, this iteration from SPOKE ensures suave comfort, all summer long.
Even Realities - Even R1 Smart Ring
Though '90s TV might have had us thinking otherwise, the smartest wearables are often the ones that don't look particularly techy at all. Even Realities' R1 ring takes that philosophy to heart, pairing understated design with a quietly impressive suite of features. Crafted from zirconia ceramic and stainless steel, it doubles as a discreet controller for the brand's equally nifty G2 smart glasses while tracking everything from heart rate and blood oxygen to sleep and daily activity.
TUDOR - Black Bay Chrono 39
Dubbed the 'Bumblebee' for obvious reasons, the latest addition to TUDOR's sterling Black Bay lineup buzzes with boldness and colour, adding a generous burst of warm yellow to its new 39mm case. Sitting alongside its spirited 'Pink' and 'Flamingo Blue' Daring Collection counterparts, this striking piece neatly contrasts its primary hue with black sub-counters and subtle red accents on the second hand, whilst it's three-link stainless steel bracelet and MK2 pushers complete its vibrant yet sporting aesthetic.
Oscar Deen - Pinto Sunglasses
Meticulously crafted from Mazzucchelli acetate, these Pinto frames from British brand Oscar Deen pay homage to some of the timeless eyewear styles of the 20th century, but with a modern, contemporary edge. Inspired by a trip to Paris, these shades have been designed with a raised keyhole bridge and lower frame (as well as featuring an angled brow for additional character) and it's the Havana Sunset colourway that will be elevating our summer accessories rotation in the coming weeks.
Grand Seiko - Byōka
An eye-catching addition to the brand's celebrated Elegance Collection, Grand Seiko's 'Byōka' timepiece is the dress watch for those who appreciate enduring craftsmanship and style when paired with subtle flair. Powered by the Caliber 9S64 movement, this deep-green 37.3mm piece takes its inspiration from the transition from summer to autumn, with its lightly textured dial and crocodile leather band evoking the richness in the leaves of trees, and the slow changing of seasons.
Oliver Brown - Swimming Shorts - Navy Sharks
Swim shorts have always been a garment where one is allowed to showcase a little personality, and Oliver Brown's Navy Sharks pair strikes that elusive balance between playful and polished, bringing a splash of character to poolside dressing without veering into novelty territory. Cut in a classic silhouette and finished with practical details including a drawcord waist and handy pockets, they're the sort of holiday essential that'll turn a few sartorial heads (in a good way).
Slowear - Cotton Crepe Overshirt
An easy cooler-day throw-on, this Cotton Crepe Overshirt from Slowear is elegant seasonal layering done correctly. Breathable and lightweight, this piece's cotton crepe construction lends a three-dimensional texture alongside its dry and refined feel. A lesson in versatility, this piece pairs outstandingly well with casual summer ensembles, or makes a distinguished alternative to a traditional lounge suit when paired with the brand's tapered fit crepe cotton trousers.
AMAFFI - Poseidon For Men
Inspired by the Mediterranean coastline, AMAFFI's Poseidon is summer sophistication bottled. Opening up with a bright rush of citrus before settling into a refined blend of orange blossom, juniper and subtle woody notes, this fresh seasonal fragrance announces itself without being arresting, making it the ideal scent for the coming weeks' alfresco soirees. In true AMAFFI style, the crystal-topped flacon is a work of art in itself; giving the Grecian deity pride of place on the grooming shelf.
Veuve Clicquot - Yinka Ilori Sun Holder
A flamboyant yet practical reimagining of the traditional champagne bucket or run-of-the-mill cooler, the Sun Holder from Veuve Clicquot brings colour and vibrancy to warm-weather sipping. Part of its limited edition 'Chasing the Sun' collection, this light and bright, flower-power inspired holder has been created in collaboration with Yinka Ilori (often referred to as "Architect of Joy") and was first revealed at Milan Design Week as a playful companion to the brand's classic Brut expression.
Émigré - The Studio Tote Bag
Crafted from lightweight, water-resistant recycled materials and designed to accommodate everything from a laptop to in-flight essentials, Émigré's Studio Tote Bag is a versatile companion that moves seamlessly between the office, airport and after-hours engagements. The ideal blend of craft and design, this stylish carry-all pairs a clean, understated silhouette with thoughtful organisation.
Maker's Mark - Classic Old Fashioned Cocktail
Few cocktails deserve classic status quite like the Old Fashioned, and when built around Maker's Mark, it's easy to see why. The Kentucky bourbon's signature use of soft red winter wheat delivers a smoother, sweeter character than many traditional rye-forward whiskies, creating a perfectly balanced serve that lets the spirit shine. Simple to make yet endlessly rewarding, this timeless combination of bourbon, bitters and sugar remains one of the most dependable orders at the bar.
Ruark Audio - Talisman-R Standing Speakers
There's a reason Ruark's original Talisman speakers earned a loyal following, and the new Talisman-R proves that storied designs are often worth revisiting. Marrying the brand's furniture-grade aesthetic with serious acoustic engineering, these elegant floorstanders deliver the kind of rich, room-filling sound that belies their slender profile. Finished in beautifully considered materials and tuned for natural, engaging listening, they're as comfortable anchoring a living space as they are a dedicated listening room.
P.Johnson x Estelle Manor - Irish Linen Pop-Over Shirt
Created as part of P.Johnson's collaboration with Estelle Manor, these Irish linen pop-over shirts embody the enduring appeal of timeless summer pieces. Available in navy and off-white (exclusively at The Muse, Estelle Manor), they pair the relaxed ease of lightweight linen with thoughtful details and finishings, including the brand's signature internal pocket. Equally suited to long lunches, weekends away and warm-weather city dressing, they capture the understated elegance that both brands do so well.
