While its release at the time was already revolutionary, Allbirds is gearing up to shake up the industry once again, this time with the help of one of the most significant markers in trends. Along with Pantone, Allbirds is gearing up to reimagine the Wool Cruiser with an exclusive color launch. Since its inception, Allbirds has been committed to creating footwear that prioritizes sustainability while focusing on lightweight designs that cushion every step. With this new collaboration, the brand is branching out of its comfort zone and providing a bold collection of hues that break from its traditionally neutral past. Pantone, largely considered the color experts that predict each season’s trending hues, has worked with Allbirds to create a new collection that brings some bright and bold shades to the brand’s iconic Wool Cruiser design.  

Pantone and Allbirds bring color to the Wool Cruiser

With a staggering 19 new shades, Pantone and Allbirds’ collaborative design has a hue for just about anyone. Based on their partnership with the color institute, five exclusive shades have also been part of the collection. These include Sapphire Blue, Zesty Citron, Golden Sunshine, Vibrant Blossom, and Granite Grey. Constructed with a 100% post-consumer recycled wool and polyester upper, each sneaker is unique in its creation. Adding to the design is a cushioned SweetFoam and a comfy wool-blend collar and tongue. The included dual-density cushioned memory foam insole also adds plenty of comfort for all-day wear. For those worried about ruining their new sneakers, these options are washing machine-approved, a staple in Allbirds’ footwear collection. All 19 shades are available to purchase via the Allbirds webstore and retail for $100.

Outdoors, Nature, Yard

Look, I am admitting it right here. The internet is forever. So I know I can never take this back. But I am not an unbiased journalist. Sure, I try to be objective in my reporting of brands and trends. But subjectively, I have favorites. Brands that speak to me. Brands that fit me well. The ones that define my lifestyle better than any others. Now that I have that off my chest, I can objectively say that there is no better brand for your casual wardrobe than Taylor Stitch. I have always loved them more than most, but this year, the Taylor Stitch F/W collection has me asking one very important question for all of you out there:

Why the Hell are you wearing anything other than Taylor Stitch this fall?

Christopher Ward’s new release turns its sporty Loco into a dress watch
Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Can a watch be a dress watch if it’s got an in-your-face design element like, say, the balance wheel visibly spinning on the dial? Christopher Ward is betting yes.

The Maidenhead, England-based brand just launched their C1 Loco Classic, a dressed-up take on last year’s C12 Loco. That watch was an angular, brightly colored sports watch built around the brand’s in-house CW-003 movement.
