On Your Feet is all about that new shoe feeling- from the first time you open the box until they’re worn into the ground. Sometimes we’ll sift through the constant Air Jordan releases to bring you the gems other people will leave on the shelves, and sometimes we’ll slide on reclaimed leather loafers from Prague, but we’ll always focus on comfortable shoes with appealing and creative aesthetic. So lace up your new kicks and stand on the precipice of adventure, where will we go together?

When it comes to footwear brands, Clarks has earned its place as one of the most historic and prolific. Since 1825, there isn’t a style they haven’t produced, in top form and with the highest quality materials. From classic looks to modern trends, every pair that comes off their line is sure to be a hit, and they never stop innovating. The newest example is the Tor collection, taking silhouettes that have been around forever, and reimagining them with exciting materials and leading edge technology.

Need a unique pair of Oxfords? The Farli Limit takes the time-tested style and turns it into something new entirely by covering the outside in buttery grey nubuck. The smooth interior lining is soft and supple, with a cushioned footbed and rubber outsole for next level comfort. They look great with slacks, jeans, or shorts, and they feel great too. It isn’t a look that fits everyones’ work place, but it is great if you’re a little more daring in your everyday wardrobe.

If you’re looking for something a little more traditional, without sacrificing comfort and quality, the Gambeson Walk might be for you. The natural tobacco brown upper is crafted from rich nubuck, paired with a clean toebox and sides for a simple look. The Gambeson Walk borrows elements from espadrille shoes, with a lightweight, flexible outsole. It’s attached to the upper via Hessian welt, giving it a natural, unfinished look that’s distinct for any shoe, especially a dress shoe.

With spring already well under way, it’s a perfect time to be moving from those dark leather loafers to something a little brighter, and the Tor collection strikes that balance perfectly. They’re also a lot more versatile than your average dress shoes, which is going to be important as you start venturing from the office to the lakeside, or from a country walk to a wedding.

Smell your best with these great fragrances
A person spraying cologne on themselves.

You only get one chance to make a great first impression. That is why we dress nicely. That is why we groom ourselves expertly. And that is why you need to have a great cologne. You never know who you are going to meet, and you don't want to be caught in anything other than your best. You may be forgiven if your hair is a little long when you are on the trail. You may be forgiven for having a five o'clock shadow on Saturday afternoon. And you may not be punished for wearing jeans and a T-shirt at the movie theater. However, you will always be judged for not smelling good. That is why you need to invest in the best men's colognes.

Having a pleasant fragrance is more than smelling pleasant for those around you. It also attracts people to you and shows that you care about your hygiene. People will respond better and remember you fondly if your smell lingers. It is the most powerful scent tied to memory, so make sure you are remembered in 2024 with these top picks for colognes for men. We didn't go with all the big boys in the men's cologne industry. You will see one name that nearly everyone knows. But, we stuck more with the ones that you all should know. There is no Dior, no Polo, and no Gucci on this list. We didn't go for names. We went for quality fragrances and picks that will keep you remembered long after you leave.

Rolex adds new Cosmograph Daytona watches
Rolex Cosmograph Daytona

Rolex has introduced a new, super-expensive watch covered in diamonds. What's new? Well, while we're used to this, and it doesn't exactly warrant front-page news, this introduction actually does. This new chapter for the brand unveils two new additions to the Rolex Daytona collection, and they're certainly more opulent in a subtle way compared to previous designs.
Rolex Daytona: Two new Rolex Cosmograph Daytona watches added to the collection

These new Rolex watches, which are part of the Cosmograph Daytona collection, are diamond-set models adorned with mother-of-pearl dials. Hearing about any Rolex watch covered in diamonds automatically evokes fantasies of extravagance and wealth, at least it does for us, but these new timepieces are remarkably restrained when it comes to a balance between bling and subtlety.
