Fall style is a time typically dominated by rugged leather chukka boots and the like, but the slew of seasonally appropriate footwear in this collaboration–from the Maslon Desert Boot at the very top of the page to the Legend Sneaker–blend the best of fall-ready Grayers fabrics with classic SeaVees silhouettes. The collaboration keeps the classic, California beach-ready aesthetic of SeaVees sneakers and updates it from the prep style viewpoint on which Grayers was founded–and it’s a well-done effort. It’s also affordably priced: styles range from $98 (for the Army Issue Low) to $108 (for the Maslon Desert Boot). That means you should pick up more than a few pairs and wear them as much as possible this fall. Grayers and SeaVees went through the extensive Grayers fabric archives before landing on premium fabrics and that’s admirable when you look at the resulting product.

In particular, styles like the Maslon Desert Boot best exemplify the merger between the two brands, taking cold-weather components like a brushed flecked flannel upper from Grayers and blending it with SeaVees’ chukka  silhouette.

It’s definitely a sneaker that exudes downtown cool while remaining totally office-ready–wear these with slim dark denim and a cable cream sweater on a casual Friday and turn some heads. Other styles, like the Legend Sneaker, take a low-cut silhouette and mash it up with excellent Grayers fabric options, inspired by classic suiting styles. The grey flannel option would sit handsomely under dark denim or contrast nicely with a rugged field jacket for casual weekend style.

Not to be forgotten, the Army Issue Low uses rugged olive twill and a soft cotton canvas lining to re-shape the way one thinks about fall sneakers–it’s a time of rugged leather boots, but it’s also a time to play with texture in your everyday fall sneakers. It’s certainly as good a time as any to refresh your fall footwear closet, too. The olive twill sneakers are going to contrast sharply (in a good way) with navy chinos or even grey herringbone trousers–try it out next time you want to switch up your look for the office or date night.

When one considers the mix of style, affordability, and unique-yet-versatile footwear options at play, the Grayers x SeaVees collaboration is a heck of a place to start when it comes to fall style–and you should certainly start shopping soon.

Deion Sanders wearing Blenders

There are a lot of things that Deion Sanders is good at: baseball, football, and coaching the latter, for instance. But one that he is excelling at off the field is promotion. Sure, he is a name and a face, and it seems like it would be easy. But when you develop your own sunglasses with a brand like Blenders, you feel the need to promote harder than usual. And now, you can snatch up a pair of these viral sunglasses yourself but don't expect them to show up on your doorstep as fast as they went viral.

Creating a viral sensation
Before his Colorado football team took the field and triumphed over rival Colorado State in a double overtime victory, his entire team showed out with their own pair of Prime 21s, the new collaboration between "Neon" Deion and Blenders sunglasses. Of course, that is never enough, as he gifted big names in sports like Stephen A. Smith (sports TV host) and Dwayne Johnson (former wrestler and football monster himself) a pair of their own to promote to their giant followings. Not to mention, another commentator called him out before the game for wearing glasses in interviews. We're not saying it was orchestrated, but the timing was perfect.

ZENITH Watches DEFY Extreme Carl Cox edition lands September 25, limited to 100 watches, priced at $30,100
There are only 100 pieces AND you get to meet Carl Cox
ZENITH Defy Extreme Carl Cox watch

Luxury watch enthusiasts, mark your calendars! ZENITH is set to release a horological marvel that's bound to send ripples through the world of timekeeping. The DEFY Extreme Carl Cox edition from ZENITH watches, a limited masterpiece, is slated to land on September 25. With only 100 pieces available and priced at a sumptuous $30,100, this timepiece is a tribute to both precision and fashionable aesthetics.
A fusion of craftsmanship: The ZENITH DEFY Extreme Carl Cox Edition
ZENITH's collaboration with Carl Cox, an ambassador for the brand, has given birth to an extraordinary creation. At the heart of this men's watch beats the most rugged and fastest 1/100th of a second chronograph, setting the tempo for accuracy that is second to none. But this watch is not just about attention to detail; it's also a nod to Carl Cox's musical heritage. The design takes cues from his favorite set of turntables, seamlessly blending the worlds of horology and music. The chronograph sub-counters have fine circular ridges that look like vinyl records, and the one at 9 o’clock has a Carl Cox logo on it. The number of sub-counters, three, also reflects Cox’s pioneering three-deck DJing style.

The ZENITH DEFY Extreme Carl Cox edition is a stunning watch that combines the best of both worlds: a classic design with a modern twist. This watch features a 45mm matte microblasted stainless steel and yellow gold case, with a 12-sided yellow gold insert under the bezel and crown guards. This blend of materials exudes a minimalistic and retro-futuristic look; it's a visual masterpiece that will undoubtedly turn heads. The case is water-resistant to 200m and has a screw-down crown for added security. The dial is open-worked, revealing the intricate workings of the El Primero 9004 in-house calibre, a chronometer-certified movement that boasts a dual regulating organ, one for timekeeping and one for the chronograph.
