When it comes to outdoor gear, Mizuno knows what it takes to provide dependable and practical items. Whether it be for table tennis or hiking, Mizuno has all of the gear you could need. Now, the brand is taking itself to the next level thanks to its latest collaboration that brings a British touch to its practical design. Along with British designer Margaret Howell, Mizuno is reviving its classic hiking sneaker with a touch of fashion. While providing plenty of sleekness, the new hiking shoes are also equipped with the technical features you would need to get the most out of your hike. Available in two understated tones, the hiking shoes are a sleeker version of the gear you know you can rely on. 

Mizuno and Margaret Howell bring style to your hikes

Arriving in two neutral hues, the new hiking shoe collaboration between Mizuno and Margaret Howell is a masterclass of minimalist footwear. Upgraded with a waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX upper, this design can lock out the elements while keeping your foot secure and dry. Available in “Black” or “Charcoal,” both iterations don a monochromatic design with tonal overlays that add dimension and style. Inside, Mizuno’s Wave midsole cushions offer impact absorption and foot fatigue relief. The geometric engineering allows for a smooth roll from heel to toe. At the bottom, the dual-grip outsole provides maximum traction on any surface and at any level. Available now via Margaret Howell and Mizuno’s webstore, these new hiking shoes are the result of a balance between design and technical features. Rounding out the design is minimal co-branding that showcases the elevated partnership between the two brands.

Bulova’s new Shelby Racer Chronograph is inspired by the Daytona Coupe
Car, Watch, Man

We are fully in race-car-watch-season, and Bulova is joining the pack with their newest release. The New York company is back at it with Carroll Shelby Licensing for a new limited-edition chronograph.

This one’s the Shelby Racer, built around the 50th Anniversary Aluminum Edition Daytona Coupe. That’s the aluminum-bodied version of the car that made Shelby the only American manufacturer to win the FIA Sports Car World Championship in 1965. (If you’ve seen Ford v Ferrari, you already know the rivalry — that movie covered Shelby’s Le Mans campaign a year later, but the Daytona Coupe is where the beef with Ferrari actually started.)

The Gentleman’s Guide to Wedding Attire
Wedding toast

As a menswear writer, I take pride in snazzy dressing. You can imagine my chagrin when I showed up to a recent wedding as the worst-dressed groomsman. It had been a perfect storm of sartorial mishaps. I’d slimmed down since the last time I wore black tie, leaving the jacket and cummerbund baggy. My favorite cuff links had vanished on a work trip. To complete the fiasco, my tuxedo shirt bore an archipelago of merlot stains from a Christmas party in late ’25.

Fortunately, I had the chance to salvage my dignity at another wedding a few weeks later. I rallied like Rocky. Rush alterations. New cuff links. A crisp Marcella shirt. Polished black shoes. I went from disheveled schlub to black-tie stud.

TAG Heuer just brought back its best Japanese racing collab
Watch, Dial, Logo

TAG Heuer just announced the second Carrera collaboration with Team Ikuzawa and Bamford Watch Department, three years after their first one together — and this time, they went back to a stopwatch.

The watch is built on TAG Heuer’s 39mm Carrera Glassbox, the modern take on the original 1963 Carrera that swaps a bezel for a highly domed sapphire crystal. But the design here pulls specifically from the Heuer Roadmaster, a vintage timing stopwatch Team Ikuzawa used trackside through the ’70s and ’80s, not from any particular car or race.
