Threadmason lets you find the right fit with a simple click

Let’s face it, no size fits all — especially when it comes to t-shirts. Each man is built different, whether talking those tall and slender or those short and stout, and it’s remarkably difficult to find a brand that truly caters to individual dimensions and specifications. Meet the New York-based Threadmason, a growing apparel operation looking to move beyond your standard small, medium, and large sizing while completely rethinking the way you shop for a classic shirt.

Georgetown alumni Vincent Ko received a t-shirt from his girlfriend several years ago, and though it didn’t immediately fit the way he wanted it to, a little needle and thread rendered it the perfect fit in no time. Ko, together with his college friend Jake Huston, later decided it was time to create a better method for curbing the generic sizing that perforates the fashion industry. They assembled an outfit of seasoned menswear designers and pattern makers, quickly building a sizing system that utilizes real guys’ body types — and a bit of 3D-modeling technology — to bring a tailored fit to one of the most basic elements of any wardrobe. Following a successful Kickstarter campaign and prototype stage, 24 unique sizes were born.

Spanning a range of crew and v-necks available in three colors (navy, black, and white), Threadmason offers an unparalleled level of fit at a premium price ($34). Each customer provides a slew of basic data, such as their weight and height, along with their body type, pant waist size, and an indication of how they like their shirts to fit. Body types range from slim and average to athletic and well-fed, with options for form-fitting and relaxed fits at the ready. The company’s website will then suggest a size, which you can then order in your desired style. Moreover, each pre-shrunk shirt is made of 100-percent organic cotton, cut in California and sewn in New York for an American-made experience across the board. Now, if only shopping online with other retailers was as easy.

Check out the main Threadmason website to peruse the company’s selection of crew and v-necks, or to make a purchase using the website’s simple sizing tool.

Casio brings back its impossibly small ring watch
Second chance: Casio's miniature ring watch returns to American market
Casio Ring Watch CRW001-1

Casio announced the US restock of its Ring Watch CRW001-1 on July 1st, bringing back the small timepiece that sold out quickly after it came out in America in late 2024. The restock follows successful lottery sales in the UK and Japan, showing that people around the world want this digital watch that goes on a finger.
The Ring Watch CRW001-1 shows Casio's bold way of looking at wearable technology—it shrinks standard digital watch functions into a ring that measures only 25.2mm across and weighs 16 grams. Even though it is small, the timepiece keeps necessary features, including support for two time zones, a stopwatch that measures 1/100th of a second, and hourly flash alerts.
Casio US confirmed the July 1st restock on Instagram, saying the watch would only be available through the brand's online store, not in physical shops. Compared to the lottery systems in other places, American customers will buy the watch in the order they arrive—this might cause a lot of competition among people who collect things and those who like technology.
The small digital screen has a backlight so you can see it in different light. The stainless steel build makes it sturdy, even though it is small. The ring fits size 22 fingers (US 10.5, EU U), and you can adjust it down to size 19 (19mm inner diameter) or size 16 (18mm inner diameter).
The engineering needed to put normal digital watch parts into a ring shape shows how well they made it. The 1/100th second stopwatch is as exact as bigger Casio watches. Travelers who want to check the time without others knowing will like the two-time zone feature.
Casio did not say the exact restock time but told interested customers to sign up for email notifications about when it would be ready. That way may help manage the internet traffic while making sure serious buyers learn about buying chances in time.
The Ring Watch's appeal shows more people are interested in other types of wearable devices, not just ones worn on the wrist. Casio's good result with this unusual approach shows that people want new watch designs that question common ideas about what a watch should look like.
The quick sellout after the US launch, along with international lottery systems, suggests that collectors are very interested and that the watch might sell for more later. Casio has not said anything about more restocks in other places after the July 1st US availability, keeping the watch special.
This restock gives American buyers a second chance to get one of the most noticeable wearable technology releases of the year, bringing together Casio's history with digital watches and its push to make things very small.
