With one of Reebok’s most iconic designs reaching its 40th anniversary, the iconic brand was bound to pull out all the stops to celebrate. Along with Japanese streetwear label WACKO MARIA, Reebok is adding a unique twist to one of its timeless silhouettes. While this collaboration marks the first between the two brands, the result would appear like a decades-long partnership. Both brands tap into this collaborative design’s current animal print trend and modernize classic shoes. With two designs expected in this first collection, the collaboration between WACKO MARIA and Reebok has all the makings of a bold and statement future.

In honor of Reebok’s Club C 85’s 40th anniversary, the brand and WACKO MARIA are giving the iconic design a one-of-a-kind remix. Using WACKO MARIA’s signature animal print, the sneaker has been updated with a custom leopard print lining and tumbled leather upper. Donning a custom Reebok branding window and tonal laces, every inch of the sneaker has new statement details. A custom tongue label and footbed give the Club C 85 a distinct touch in honor of the collaboration. The sneaker also comes in a custom limited-edition box that matches the shoe’s colorway to complete the look. Those looking to add a bold print to their wardrobe can grab the special edition sneaker on Reebok’s site, WACKO MARIA stores, and select retailers on February 28 for $140. Although these Reebok Club C 85 have remained faithful to their overall design, the addition of WACKO MARIA’s signature features gives it a refreshed look ideal for celebrating its 40th anniversary.

The best casual watches for men (to upgrade your everyday style)

Watches are more than a tool. They are more than an accessory. They are the kind of tool and accessory that make a statement. They are an expression. They are a statement. A man can look incredible: the right top, the right bottom, great shoes, great hat. The wrong watch can ruin a look, or even the whole essence. Here is the rub: the wrong watch can be subjective. For instance, most people will tell you that a Timex broken watch isn’t the right watch for a pinstripe power suit. However, it was my grandfather’s watch, and I wear it anytime I need him and his guidance. The point? That is never the wrong watch. Once you find a casual watch that works for you, it will be your everyday wear and will never be the wrong watch.

That is what I collected here: The best of the casual watches you can pick up today that will become your everyday wear.

Audemars Piguet launches pre-owned program to rival the titan of the second-hand watch market
Audemars Piguet

Rolex has dominated the watch world for nearly a century. The industry is a deep and complicated web of luxury houses and independent hopefuls. While brands like Patek Phillipe and Cartier vie for their place on the podium, Rolex holds a death grip on the chronophile’s aspirational collection checklist. But Audemars Piguet has decided to challenge them somewhere most other brands are deciding to ignore: the pre-owned market. Now, while something like the Royal Oak is an icon among enthusiasts, AP launching their own certified pre-owned marketplace to chase the reported $1 billion Rolex pie will certainly upset the market.

Like I said, it is a deep and complicated web, so I sat down with a horological expert and founder of WatchGuys, (317K on Instagram), Robertino Altieri, to have him walk me through what this means for watches and their passionate collectors.
