Vuori Clothing Puts California Cool Into Your Workout Gear

The Manual may earn a commission when you buy through links on our site.

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.

Bulova’s new Shelby Racer Chronograph is inspired by the Daytona Coupe
Car, Watch, Man

We are fully in race-car-watch-season, and Bulova is joining the pack with their newest release. The New York company is back at it with Carroll Shelby Licensing for a new limited-edition chronograph.

This one’s the Shelby Racer, built around the 50th Anniversary Aluminum Edition Daytona Coupe. That’s the aluminum-bodied version of the car that made Shelby the only American manufacturer to win the FIA Sports Car World Championship in 1965. (If you’ve seen Ford v Ferrari, you already know the rivalry — that movie covered Shelby’s Le Mans campaign a year later, but the Daytona Coupe is where the beef with Ferrari actually started.)

The Gentleman’s Guide to Wedding Attire
Wedding toast

As a menswear writer, I take pride in snazzy dressing. You can imagine my chagrin when I showed up to a recent wedding as the worst-dressed groomsman. It had been a perfect storm of sartorial mishaps. I’d slimmed down since the last time I wore black tie, leaving the jacket and cummerbund baggy. My favorite cuff links had vanished on a work trip. To complete the fiasco, my tuxedo shirt bore an archipelago of merlot stains from a Christmas party in late ’25.

Fortunately, I had the chance to salvage my dignity at another wedding a few weeks later. I rallied like Rocky. Rush alterations. New cuff links. A crisp Marcella shirt. Polished black shoes. I went from disheveled schlub to black-tie stud.

TAG Heuer just brought back its best Japanese racing collab
Watch, Dial, Logo

TAG Heuer just announced the second Carrera collaboration with Team Ikuzawa and Bamford Watch Department, three years after their first one together — and this time, they went back to a stopwatch.

The watch is built on TAG Heuer’s 39mm Carrera Glassbox, the modern take on the original 1963 Carrera that swaps a bezel for a highly domed sapphire crystal. But the design here pulls specifically from the Heuer Roadmaster, a vintage timing stopwatch Team Ikuzawa used trackside through the ’70s and ’80s, not from any particular car or race.
