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

Working with the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 team, Adidas launched the Silver Arrow pack, a collection of fanwear inspired by the Mercedes-Benz W196 race car. Current Mercedes F1 drivers George Russell and Kimi Antonelli posed with items from the Silver Arrow collection along with professional models.
Why celebrate the W196?

The W196 wasn't the first Silver Arrow. The first Mercedes to be called a Silver Arrow was the Mercedes W25, which debuted in 1934. However, driver Juan Fangio won the 1954 and 1955 F1 World Championships with the W196, which was among the several models referred to by the group name. The Adidas Silver Arrow collection celebrates the 70th anniversary of the W196's first F1 Championship season.
