Vuori Clothing Puts California Cool Into Your Workout Gear

For those of us lucky enough to live near the beach, we tend to get as much time as possible on the sand.

This includes the daily workout. And because staying fashionable while working up a sweat is key when in a highly visible place like the beach, Vuori Clothing’s new spring/summer lineup is here to help you do just that.

The California company was started by two pro skateboarder friends who couldn’t find performance clothing that was right for them. They began to build a following around shorts and other light gear that is “inspired by an integration of yoga, surf, sports, music and life.” They have everything from the “Banks” short, which is primed for the water to the “Tradewind” performance shirt, which is 100% polyester and 100% ready for any workout.

The brand’s entire vibe is relaxed and the rest of its lineup follows suits. They have at least 30 different variations on 5-6 different short styles, meaning there’s something to suit everyone.

We especially like the “Trail” short, which was purposely designed to reduce drag and resistance following the natural motion of running. It has a built in boxer brief liner for extra comfort too.

You can feel good supporting Vuori too as they continually reinvest in their local Encinitas, California community by hosting art shows, fitness classes and much more.

You can see their entire lineup and decide which is right for you here.

Nomos adds color to Metro line for Ace Jewelers’ 50th
Two new Nomos watches with striking dial colors
Ace x Nomos Glashuette

Dating back to the early ‘90s, German watch brand Nomos Glashutte has dominated the industry with stylish timepieces. It is now collaborating with Ace Jewelers to mark a special milestone in the boutique's journey—its 50th anniversary. The latest additions, the Metro Neomatik and Metro Neomatik 39, are based on the Metro line and are cleverly designed to breathe some life into the collection. Think of it as a splash of color that makes everything look more interesting.

To make the collection more lively, the brand opted for contemporary color shades—orange and yellow. Each model features a subdial above 6 o’clock that’s highlighted by a different shade, which complements the dial. While the orange version has a yellow subdial, the yellow variant comes with an orange sundial, two warm colors that blend perfectly. The Metro line consists of three watch models with white and blue dials—the new orange dials add a touch of spice to the collection.

Sergio Tacchini taps into its tennis roots for SS25
Channeling the tennis beginnings and the polo origin
Sergio Tacchini Tennis

Athletes who make a mark on their sport almost always go on to create something off the court as well. After they leave a lasting legacy within their respective athletic venture, they look to have the same effect on culture. The most popular example is Michael Jordan and his Air Jordan shoe line. While he is the greatest basketball player of all time (no disrespect to Kobe or LeBron), his shoes have changed the world in so many ways that it's hard to quantify. But before MJ, you had Sergio Tacchini. While he was a legendary tennis star, he made a lasting impact on culture when he launched his self-titled brand. It started on the court and was worn by dozens of tennis legends from the 1970s to the 1990s, but it was also adopted by the British subculture "The Casuals" and hip-hop artists like LL Cool J and Nas. Since then, it went through some hard times before being acquired in 2019 and relaunched. The Sergio Tacchini SS25 drop heads back to its tennis roots, reminding everyone where it came from.

Zenith Chronomaster Original Triple Calendar white abckground

Zenith introduced a new Chronomaster Original Triple Calendar chronograph model. It has an 18-carat rose gold case and a black dial. This addition comes after the steel model came out earlier in 2024. The new materials and color difference change the appearance of the design.

At 38mm the watch showcases a configuration from El Primero's past. Not many people realize the high-frequency chronograph movement from Zenith had a triple calendar, besides the moon phase. In 1970, the company made 25 prototypes using the A386 case design.
