New Years Resolution A.K.A. Back to the Gym with Style

With the New Year upon us, and many a resolution being made, the Oregon based brand www.willleathergoods.com, will make your trips to the gym a bit more about form and function.  This washed cotton canvas bag with bridle leather handles and trim has a removable shoulder strap.  The duffle bag will not only collapse to fit into your gym locker, but will double as a great carry-on for your next getaway, or just to work.  This bag has four outer pockets and with plenty more for you tech gadgets.  An average bag takes 75 steps in the production process, but this bag takes over 140 to give its masculine, detailed look. Additional rivets, reinforced leather corners and box stitching, are just a few if the extra steps that are taken to ensure the Duffle bag will stand the test if time.

Sporting antique brass and antique nickel hardware, this tartan plaid lined bag incorporates rich vegetable dyes in the tanning process. These not only give the leather its supple hand, but also imbue the elements needed for the leather to remain soft and durable over the life of the bag.

“The main part of the bag allows plenty of room to put their clothing, large items for their important meetings, and their personal items. This makes for an easy travel while going through the airports or traveling in a car. THE TRAVELER is beautifully handcrafted with heavy weight canvas and handpicked leather to last through a lifetime of travels. I have enjoyed designing this duffle for your personal needs,” said Bill Adler, Creative Director of Will Leather Goods.

Bill was an actor, and living in Venice Beach, CA. During the Screen Actors Guild strike in 1981, he needed to find a way to feed his young family, so he opened a belt stand on the Venice Beach Boardwalk.  In October 2012, Will Leather Goods opened their Flagship retail store on Abbot Kinney in Venice Beach.

In 2025, Tudor continues to build on its reputation as one of the most innovative watchmaking companies in the world, redefining excellence with its latest releases, heralded as some of the most ambitious. We predicted what the watch brand would debut at Watches and Wonders 2025, and now we know. Innovation leads the charge in the all-new Black Bay 43mm, featuring Master Chronometer certification for unprecedented precision, and a Pelagos engineered to withstand depths up to 1,000 meters and more – all testaments to the rich diving history of Tudor. This illustrious lineup includes a Black Bay 58 in burgundy dial and bezel, a Black Bay Pro, and a Black Bay Chrono presented on a sleek five-link bracelet in steel. Each timepiece from this collection blends Tudor’s signature cutting-edge technology and progressive design, cementing their status as the brand charges into new territory.

New Balance brings back its beloved barefoot sneaker for another release
New Balance announces new sneaker
New balance purple shoe

Although New Balance is known for its signature chunky silhouette, a more minimal and slim model used to be a crowd favorite, the athletic brand’s barefoot-inspired silhouette is a sleek and subdued design that resembles the natural foot shape. Although many of the most recognized models from the brand are the more voluminous styles, recent trends have cleared the way for the return of slimmed-down shoes. Besides its minimal size, the shoe offers a rugged and durable characteristic that athletes will enjoy. Feeling closer to the ground, this shoe is a one-of-a-kind design that contrasts significantly with the ultra-chunky models the brand has released. Despite its small size, this slim silhouette still offers all of the features and technology you would expect in your athletic footwear, without losing the style that New Balance has come to gain.

With three new colorways, the athletic brand is re-releasing one of its most iconic soccer-inspired styles in three bold and vibrant colorways that’ll stand out with your summer looks. Although the design was already released last month in a ‘Metallic Silver,’ the sold-out silhouette is ready for another round. Having previously teased the model, Nike’s retro design is part of the brand’s bigger mission to reestablish itself as a trendsetter.
