Spring’s Best Leather Accessories

As spring approaches, we’re looking for ways to update our wardrobes without blowing an entire paycheck on new clothing and accessories. Buying into a trend can be expensive, especially if it’s obviously fleeting, so we always look for updated classics that will complement the wardrobe rather than oppose it. One of the easiest ways to refresh your look for a new season is to add fresh leather accessories to your closet. Not only will they last a long time, a great wallet or weekender never goes out of style. Check out some of our favorites below and update your look without breaking the bank.

BellroyBellroy Slim Sleeve Wallet
This bi-fold wallet may seem like any other until you take a look inside. Two quick access card slots hold your most used plastic, and cash folds easily in the half fold. Use the leather pull tab on the opposite side to access even more cards if you roll like that. In fact, this vegetable tanned cow leather beauty can hold about 15 cards without creating any extra bulge. Your pants pockets will thank you. $79, Roztayger

While KEEN is primarily known for its outdoor shoe lineup that adds performance details to rugged footwear, it doesn’t mean that the brand is shutting itself off from other types. As golf continues to grow as a sport and as a style, it's no surprise that KEEN has opted to dabble in golf footwear for the first time. Along with LA-based streetwear brand Metalwood Studio, KEEN is making its mark on the green. In this new collaborative collection, the duo is releasing two new golf shoes that are crafted for pre- and post-games. Although most of KEEN’s lineup is already suited for any outdoor activities, these golf-specific options offer fans of the sport a designated choice that brings together KEEN’s performance technology and Metalwood Studio’s knowledge of the game.

Omega has recently released its striking Aqua Terra 150 timepiece in turquoise, a daring model marrying Swiss precision and bold design.

Housed in a 41mm stainless steel case, the Aqua Terra keeps the teak-patterned dial which commemorates Omega’s maritime heritage, while the applied indices and rhodium-plated hands guarantee legibility and elegance. Powered by the Master Chronometer Calibre 8900, this timepiece delivers unparalleled accuracy and a 60-hour power reserve, all encased in a design that transitions seamlessly from the office to the yacht.
