Winter officially started last week, which means there’s no better excuse to expand your outerwear collection. If you still haven’t found the perfect winter jacket, you’re in luck because we have one that just might suit you – Hawke & Co’s Flatiron down jacket.

Finding a good down jacket can be difficult; some are too shiny, many are too bulky, but this one fits just right – and guess what? It’s packable. Yup, all you over-packers can now take two or three options with you on your next ski trip. The jacket is light, compact, and comes in a variety of colors. All of the warmth with none of the weight.

The Manhattanite jacket is perfect for the guy who rides his bike year-round or refuses to close the sunroof in February. Unique shoulder detailing adds an urban layer of style. This style is also so light it will pack into its own pocket.

Hawke and Co. has been around for three generations – 150 years to be exact. It’s an independently owned and operated family business based out of New York City. They pay great attention to the detail of their many jacket selections.

The company has expanded immensely since their early days. They can now be found in over 20,000 locations around the world and they’ve managed to grow without any expensive advertising. Word of mouth and grassroot efforts have helped build this company into what it is today.

The brand offers sleek, stylish, and technically sophisticated outerwear at an affordable price. What more could you want in a jacket?

Hawke and Co. has some great post-holiday discounts happening right now, so make sure to check out the full selection of winter jackets on Hawke and Co,’s official website right here – hawkeandco.com

Doxa’s Sub 200T watch is a new, smaller version of the Classic 300 design
Doxa introduces smaller version of Sub 300
Doxa Sub 200T series

Doxa watches aren't exactly the word on the tip of anyone's tongue when they think of their favorite brands; however, they have developed their own community, and some might dub them a cult following. The brand recently unveiled its latest Doxa watch, the Sub 200T which has sent a lightning strike through the hearts of fans, as it's unmistakably more compact than the iconic 300T and 600T models. The lack of smaller options has always been a common complaint among fans of the brand, and with consumer behavior veering more and more in this direction, it's no surprise that the latest iteration is just 39mm. The iconic design of the Classic 300 has been shrunk down to something more compact, sleek, and contemporary.
The new Doxa Sub 200T has a color for every taste

On top of that, the kaleidoscope of color options available from Doxa watches will surely satisfy every taste, from those who like bright and sporty models to those who prefer something a little more classic and subdued. The dial features a sunray-finished design with a luminous sunburst effect, and it comes with two strap options: a stainless steel bracelet with a "beads of rice" design and an FKM rubber strap that comes with folding clasps and ratcheting wetsuit extensions.

Hublot’s sapphire Big Bang gets an icy new color
Hublot reveals new Big Bang in Glacier Blue
Hublot Big Bang in Glacier Blue

The newest addition to the Hublot MP-11 collection is a formidable presence, measuring a whopping 45mm in diameter and 14.4mm in thickness, so you'll need some major confidence if you want to sport this beast on your wrist. The inaugural Sapphire Big Bang was introduced in 2016 and since then the brand has delighted fans with an array of color iterations, from other sapphire colors to purple and orange. Now, Glacier Blue has been introduced, just in time to keep you cool this summer (in attitude, not temperature, unfortunately.)
Hublot: The Big Bang MP-11 in Glacier Blue

This Big Bang MP-11 features a 14-day power reserve, which is achieved through seven series-coupled barrels arranged in a horizontal configuration, and all of that can be viewed by the wearer. The truly vibrant Glacier Blue (seriously, the blue is so bright you'll feel like you're about to start seeing your breath) is made with a fresh chemical composition but still shares the same properties as sapphire: luminous, and able to withstand scratches.
Technical specifications
This Hublot watch will leave you completely mesmerized for several hours before you even think about the technical specifications, though there are some exceptional details to go over. Inside this MP-11 is the HUB9011 Manufacture manual-winding skeleton power reserve movement. As we mentioned above, there are seven series-coupled barrels, but they've been arranged in a coaxial and vertical configuration so the watch is able to maintain a super slim profile of just 10.9mm. All tied together like a bow on top is the blue transparent structured rubber strap with a titanium deployant buckle clasp.
