While it feels as if New Balance’s luxury walking shoe, Allerdale, was released only a few days ago, the brand is already prepping for another colorway drop. Previously, the athletic company revealed their ‘Made in UK Allerdale’ sneaker, which mixed sophisticated and low-key details in one chic design. Already proven a hit globally, New Balance is taking advantage of the heightened popularity by unveiling the silhouette’s newest shade. While the past Brown/Black color combination was a classic mix, the latest color is a minimalist look that has the opportunity to turn into a timeless shoe. This sneaker is the ultimate casual sneaker for the brand’s Made in UK line that’ll elevate your everyday looks.

Donning a new crisp white hue, the upcoming New Balance ‘Allerdale’ design repeats its predecessor’s chic style. Created with tumbled leather uppers, the off-white midsole offers a small tonal contrast that adds dimension to the overall style. Color and material variation adds texture and style to the look, giving it the sense of an old-school heritage sneaker. D-ring lacing, embroidered branding, and a woven graphic label at the tongue complement the sneaker. A green Ortholite sole insert adds a pop of hidden color while adding comfort and cushion to the design. The epitome of a classic white sneaker, this Allerdale is versatile and functional, with a sophisticated design. With a new colorway already releasing weeks after the initial release, there’s no doubt that new hues are expected for this model in the near future. Those looking for this new hue can purchase the Allerdale sneaker via New Balance’s website starting April 3, with the shoe retailing for $250.

Hockerty wants color to stand out this summer with new Color Edit
Stand out with new summer colors from Hockerty
Blazer, Clothing, Coat

The summer is in full swing. That means you are likely dealing with the rising temperatures to the point that you are sitting back and missing the blizzards of January. I remember standing on the corner of a street in New York and watching the snowflakes fall, thinking, "I can't wait for summer and baseball." Now, I am looking back and thinking about those temperatures, and I am wishing I had enjoyed them more. As I bake like a chicken on the streets of New York, I think about how to dress for the office while dying of heat stroke. The answer? Hockerty's new Summer Edit brings light and breathable fabrics while also adding in the kinds of colors that will take your wardrobe from stylish to functional without leaving the style behind.

Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Luminox usually builds watches that look ready for a covert night operation — but its newest one looks ready for a 1950s expedition instead.

The Pfäffikon, Switzerland–based brand just dropped the Adventure Watch, a field watch styled after the timepieces of the early exploration days but built to Luminox's modern military-grade standards.

What sailors in the Race to Mackinac, America’s oldest freshwater race, wear on their wrists
The race from Chicago to Mackinac Island is a days-long battle against the Great Lakes. In that kind of contest, you need a watch as tough as the job.
Boat, Sailboat, Transportation

The Race to Mackinac has been run since 1898, when five boats set out from Chicago. Today it covers 333 statute miles up Lake Michigan, crosses into Lake Huron at the Straits of Mackinac, and finishes off Mackinac Island — and it is not an easy voyage. It is also not a gentle one. Sustained gales flattened big chunks of the fleet in 1911, 1937, and 1970, and after a deadly storm in 2011, the Mac's reputation for danger stopped being theoretical. The fastest boats finish absurdly quickly now, with an all-time record of 18 hours and 50 minutes set back in 1998, but most crews are out there for two or three nights. The sailors alternate, sleeping in shifts of four hours each, until they (hopefully) make land.

It might seem tough to imagine doing that once — now, try doing it two dozen more. For those who make the journey at least 25 times, the prize is entry into the Island Goats Sailing Society, founded in 1959 and now several hundred strong. Rack up 25 Chicago Macs and 25 from Port Huron, and you become a Double Goat. The nickname, as the story goes, comes from the aroma a crew carries after days at sea with no shower. All things considered, this is a tough, electric, occasionally dangerous race. The Chicago Yacht Club hosts the race annually in mid-July, and that's exactly where I went to look at watches.
