West ElmEmma Chamberlain x West Elm
West Elm and Emma Chamberlain team up for an eclectic collection of furniture and homewares inspired by vintage pieces the tastemaker owns. That means it combines mid-century and futuristic aesthetics, remixed into playful objects like the Curved Wooden Vanity (pictured) or a pitcher shaped like a pigeon.
PelicanPelican ModLight Pivot
This clever, hands-free lamp turns any existing Pelican case into a mobile workstation. In fact, its 3M adhesive back and EZ-Click MOLLE compatibility means you can pretty much attach it to any flat surface you can find, making it even more versatile. It also has a compact, low-profile design, runs for up to 18 hours on a single charge, is shock-resistant and can project your choice of red, blue or white light (along with other lighting modes). This could be a backcountry adventurer’s best friend, in the right hands.
Reigning ChampReigning Champ Heavyweight Jersey Standard Hoodie
Reigning Champ recently introduced the Heavyweight Jersey Collection, a new line of spring-focused basics cut from the same cloth (literally) as the brand’s heaviest T-shirt fabric. The Heavyweight Jersey Standard Hoodie offers a substantial feel without the bulk, and the smooth interior and exterior finish of the fabric makes for seamless layering. The drape of the sleek fabric is ideal for spring and summer months. The pre-shrunk hoodie comes in Black and Navy colorways and features raglan sleeves, a dual-layer hood, kangaroo pocket, rib cuffs and hem and a flat-woven drawcord.
AOTOSAOTOS Flux X26
The latest two-wheeled wonder shooting the gap between e-bikes and motos is this futuristic crowdfunded beast, which packs a bunch of compelling yet credible claims. Highlights include an angular one-piece aluminum alloy frame, 70 miles of range, a 0 to 20 mph time of 4.9 seconds and assisted wheelies at the touch of a button. A high-def TFT smart screen offers access to a suite of modern tech features while 20″ x 4″ fat tires and dual hydraulic suspension let you shred from city streets to far off the beaten path.
Ford2027 Ford Expedition 30th Anniversary
In celebration of the Expedition’s 30th anniversary, Ford is rolling out a commemorative visual package for the 2027 model year. Along with Blue Ember metallic tri-coat paint (originally reserved for the Mustang Dark Horse), it also benefits from salt crystal gray interior trim, 22-inch high-gloss ebony wheels and special birthday badging inside and out. With nearly 3 million Expeditions since the model hit the market in 1996, it’s a fitting and handsome tribute to the nameplate’s growth over three decades.
