Giveaway! SeaVees Hermosa Plimsoll

Yes, yes, it’s boot season. We get it. We love boots, but we are an equal opportunity footwear site. SeaVees have been a favorite for a long time. Classic, clean and comfortable. The line, born in California back in 1964 always makes our feet feel like they are about to go on vacation. (Fun fact: tire company, BF Goodrich, founded SeeVee’s – maybe that is why they are so comfy.) All of SeaVees shoes are batch made in limited production runs to maintain quality and consistency.

Now for the exciting part, we are giving away three pairs to three lucky guys. Just follow the links below and we will be picking the three victors on Monday.

We picked the Hermosa Plimsoll as the giveaway shoe of choice. It is one of their best sellers and is made of luxurious oiled calf suede. It has an improved contoured footbed and is lined in cotton canvas to provide greater breathability and airflow. It retails for $108.

All of SeaVee’s shoes are named after influential cultural dates and events in California’s history. This one celebrated the first skateboard contest which was held in August 1963 set in the parking lot of the Pier Avenue Junior High School in Hermosa Beach. The competition drew about 100 people from the nearby Hermosa Beach Surf Festival.

So go ahead and click away to the winning style. Contest ends on Monday.

Bradley Cooper rocks a Wax London Overshirt in NYC
An icon wearing an icon

Bradley Cooper worked his way into our hearts in the early 2000s alongside Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis, and others in The Hangover. He then spent the next two decades dropping Oscar performance after Oscar performance until he landed the role of Rocket Raccoon in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. That means we pay attention to him. Now, he is one of the guys we ordinary folk follow to stay up on the trends. While he has been the centerpiece of a lot of hair content from all the men's style writers (guilty as charged, Your Honor), he has also taught many of us the subtle art of the leather jacket and, recently, the even subtler art of casual streetwear. We are paying attention again as he steps out in New York City wearing this gorgeous overshirt from Wax London.

Inspiration can come from anywhere. A book, a movie, a song, all things that can spark our creative engines and get us to turn out the best we have inside us. Designers have to find ways to escape the noise of the industry to find inspiration in everything around them. For Wax London, that was what they did. On a trip to Scotland, they found themselves surrounded by the serene beauty of the country and developed their autumn and winter collection for 2024, titled appropriately enough, "Escape the Noise." Of course, any collection that Wax London does now has to include an evolution of the new icon for the brand, the Whiting overshirt. And this season has already gotten a boost thanks to Bradley Cooper, who wore it for an outing in NYC. But that isn't all this new collection has going for it.
Fit for an autumn in the Scottish Highlands

The new Wax London collection features a bevy of specialty overshirts, including the classic windowpane check and the latest season stepney all in a darker nighttime color palette of blacks, navy, and whites. They also add to their repertoire with the Otto, similar to the Whiting, only with side entry pockets. One of the collection's standouts this season is the use of corduroy. Not only do they offer it in blazers and trousers, the perfect fall fabric for exploring Scotland's most beautiful countryside, but they also feature embroidered shirts in a stunning pin-cord texture.

Since 2024 is the 50th anniversary of Casio, the iconic brand is planning to launch a new line of watches to commemorate the anniversary. However, such models were introduced in different regions. Casio Japan was recently hacked, so it had to push the launch forward. As a result, new watch models were only revealed by Casio Hong Kong.

According to an image that was published on the Casio Hong Kong Instagram, the team behind the brand plans to introduce these models into the market: Edifice EFS-S640ZE-1A, Baby-G BGD-S565ZE-1, Pro Trek PRW-6900ZE-1, and G-Shock GMC-B2100ZE-1A. While such models haven’t made it to Casio America’s official page, they will be rolled into the American market in late October.
