While many footwear brands have drawn from their archives for new releases, it hasn’t stopped them from innovating new designs and technologies. Adidas’ search for innovation brought us the release of its 3D-printed Climacool silhouette in 2024, and now the brand is continuing the process with a fresh upgrade on its tech-savvy gem. The Climacool design is a one-of-a-kind footwear innovation that involves printing the shoe in one piece, ensuring a certified fit and comfort every time. After undergoing meticulous athletic testing to achieve the best balance of technology and comfort, the Climacool has become the brand’s newest state-of-the-art design. Now in 2025, the brand is looking to upgrade the design with a simple addition that’ll make a world of a difference for those looking for the best-fitting shoe.

Adidas continues to innovate with the latest Climacool shoe

With innovative construction and an optimal comfort design, the newest Climacool adds one detail missing from its original launch: laces. The newest laced Climacool features the innovative lattice design in the uppers for all-around airflow and includes a seamless structure for maximum durability and minimum breakage. Contrasting the white colorway are newly added black laces that increase stability and offer better adjustment. Not to be forgotten is the brand’s Three Stripes mark, which is showcased in a ghost-transparent hue that adds heritage to the design while maintaining the innovative look. The creation of the shoe takes a total of 24 hours, highlighting its unique craftsmanship. With plenty of soft details and underfoot cushioning, the Climacool isn’t just about its technology; it’s about its practicality of use. The new laced Climacool shoe will be available on Adidas’ website, in stores, and at select retailers on July 15.

The 5 suit brands you need to know to build your first suit wardrobe: Including the first aspirational one

Building a suit wardrobe starts with the brands you can trust

Men's Wearhouse Custom

Look, starting a wardrobe is difficult. You have to decide what kind of man you want to be. What kind of message do you want to send? What kind of budget do you want to use? And how often you want to go back to the drawing board. What kind of man do you want to be? Sounds heavy. Sounds dramatic. Maybe because, in some ways, it is. So much of what people initially believe about you remains in their subconscious long after they get to know you. So what you wear is important. The message you want to send is one of being put together, attentive to details, or it is the opposite. Laid back and unbothered. The budget is also integral to the wardrobe you build. High quality comes with high prices. However, it comes with longevity, so it means you don't have to replace it as often, saving money in the long run. So, what kind of man do you want to be? Hopefully one that wears men's suits.

No matter what man, message, budget, or shopping frequency you choose, a good suit wardrobe will need to be a part of it. So, where do you go? How do you start? Here are the five brands to trust to get started. No Tom Ford, Brioni, giant fashion houses here. These are the five suits for the man starting out. And one for the man aspiring to the next step. The first four, you can grab your first quality suit for around the $1,000 mark. The aspirational one will be your first custom, so it will be a bit more.

Longines refreshes its cult-favorite central power reserve in light blue

The Swiss watch company is giving the Conquest Heritage Central Power Reserve some new dial and bracelet options.

Wristwatch, Arm, Dial

Longines has been around since 1832, which makes it one of the oldest continuously operating watchmakers on Earth — old enough to have spent decades strapped to the wrists of aviators and explorers before most brands existed. So when the Saint-Imier company, now part of the Swiss giant Swatch Group, revives something from its own archives, it's got real history to draw on. The Conquest Heritage Central Power Reserve is a good example.

The Conquest line dates to 1954 — the first Longines collection to have its name trademarked with the Swiss IP office. And in 1959, one Conquest model introduced the complication this watch is built around: a power reserve indicator planted dead center on the dial. For 2026, Longines has given the modern revival a light refresh: a new light-blue opaline dial and (for the first time on this model) a stainless-steel bracelet alongside the returning dark leather strap.

Shohei Ohtani’s newest Seiko is out of this world

Seiko built Shohei Ohtani a one-of-one watch that tracks a million hours across five rotating discs — and you can't buy it.

Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

The Seiko Star Time, presented to Shohei Ohtani on July 3, marks his tenth year as a Seiko ambassador. It's not for sale, will never be for sale, and there's exactly one on Earth — currently strapped to the best baseball player alive. Oh, and also? It looks absolutely nuts. Instead of hands, the Star Time tells time with five stacked, concentric discs, each tracking a different scale of accumulated time: 24 hours, then 1,000, 10,000, 100,000, and finally a disc that runs all the way to one million hours.

That's roughly 114 years — a full human lifetime, give or take. The discs turn continuously, so slowly you can't see them move. Seiko named it "Star Time" for exactly that reason: like stars drifting across the sky, the motion is imperceptible in the moment but relentless. A little existential for a watch company, but let's go with it.
