Continuing their collaboration, Diemme and Hiking Patrol are back together, fusing the craftsmanship of Italy with the minimalist approach of Scandinavia. For the fourth chapter of their collaboration, Diemme and Hiking Patrol have unveiled a new iteration of the Roccia Vet. The Roccia Vet, crafted to be a utilitarian staple, transcended its time to become a faithful example of how elevated design and modern innovation merge for the ultimate design. As a result of the partnership, the two brands have unveiled Roccia Vet Woolfelt, a handcrafted product made in Montebelluna, Italy. Combining with Hiking Patrol’s Norwegian “Quiet Outdoors” mission. Using responsible processes and quality construction, the Roccia Vet Woolfelt is a natural progression of the Diemme and Hiking Patrol collaboration, poised to outdo itself yet again. 

The Roccia Vet Woolfelt: The boot made to last

Built for resilience and comfort, the Roccia Vet Woolfelt by Hiking Patrol and Diemme is the elevated boot of the future. With uppers crafted from woolfelt sourced from Lanificio Bigagli in Prato, Italy, this material is mixed with durable leathers that strengthen the design without sacrificing the shoe’s flexibility. Inside, the padded leather lining adds comfort and temperature regulation, while the ergonomic footbed delivers all-day support. At the bottom, a lightweight rubber sole provides traction, stability, and grip for all adventures from the city to the trails. Available via Hiking Patrol and Diemme, the Roccia Vet Woolfelt is available in three distinct colorways – Taupe, Antracite, and Mogano – for $520 each. Along with Diemme’s Italian craftsmanship, Hiking Patrol’s outdoor-first ethos is perfectly delivered in a new step of this duo’s collaboration.

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.
