We love it when a great brand thinks hard about what our wardrobes may be missing. So when Danish wonder brand Norse Projects released their latest technical offering, we were pretty psyched.

The technical garments collection includes five key Norse pieces that have been reworked to serve us active urbanites. Created with city conditions in mind, the collection is just as useful for everyday use as it is for keen runners. Though, we see it working best as your reliable exercise outfit that packs down to take up minimum space in your work bag, ready for a run home or a after work soccer game.

The collection includes two outerwear options, the Balder Windbreaker and the Jens Light shirt. The Balder is windproof, water resistant and packs down into the front pocket for super easy storage. It’s also cut with a shorter fit to allow greater movement when running or cycling. The Jens is a great lightweight option for all seasons. Featuring thin Primaloft® thermal insulation, you’ll probably end up wearing this little baby all year round.

For those who sweat profusely during exercise, the bonded mesh pieces are a godsend. Lightweight and ultra absorbent, the hoodie, long sleeve top and shorts are designed using quick dry fabric, which wicks moisture away from your skin.

Gym dodgers beware, this collection is the answer to all your lame excuses…

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

Work wear blues watch close up

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.
