After making a name for itself up north in Canada, the premium sportswear brand Moose Knuckles recently announced its gearing up to expand into the United States just in time for winter. Already reputable among international retailers, the brand prides itself on putting a youthful spin on traditional outerwear and operating with what it calls, a “no holds barred” attitude. Whether its wanton philosophy resonates with you or not, there’s no getting around the sheer quality of Moose Knuckles’ extensive collection (for men and women) and its uncanny ability to appeal to literally anyone.

With the brand eyeing such a move into the states, it’s tapped the likes of Nordstrom, Revolve, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Paragon to function as Moose Knuckles ambassadors. Assuming its Fall/Winter collection proves to be a success, it’s highly likely the number of stores featuring the brand’s impressive lines multiplies every season. Considering the kind of company it’s already swooned into carrying its clothing, that success doesn’t seem entirely hard to accomplish.

Concerning the products themselves, each quality selection in Moose Knuckles’ catalogue is constructed with a keen eye towards achieving incredible form and unparalleled function. Whether it’s the specialized blend of cotton and nylon, the grey duck down insulation to keep you warm when temperatures are below freezing, or each jacket’s industrial strength YKK zippers, Moose Knuckles cuts no corners in bringing its customers the absolute best. Moreover, each jacket, vest, or otherwise is entirely unique in its design and construction literally making no two product wholly the same. Moose Knuckles’ commitment to diversity allows it to stand out in an otherwise crowded pack of outerwear purveyors.

This new Cartier watch tells time backwards
Turn back time with the new Santos
Cartier Rewind on wrist

Wristwatches may be distinctly masculine pieces of hardware now, thanks to some very popular people in pop culture and in our own history adopting them. British super spy James Bond, movie stars, and athletes are the people we look up to who wear watches that catch our eye. Soldiers, cops, firefighters, and first responders wear watches they trust to ensure they can save lives. Pilots and divers created an entire industry around watches specifically designed for their vocations. And the very first pilot's watch was none other than a Cartier watch.

Alberto Santos-Dumont was a pioneer in the flight world and was one of the first people on Earth to achieve air travel. He was a competitor of the Wright Brothers, and, depending on the source, he preceded them in flight. In any case, the French celebrity went to Louis Cartier, another pioneer of his craft, and procured a square timekeeper meant for the wrist. The Cartier Santos Dumont was born. Over a century later, Cartier attended Watches and Wonders and presented the newest in the line of Santos watches, one that reverses time.
