Osprey x Danner Adventure Travel Kit

Danner and Osprey are two of the most revered outdoor brands, despite having a penchant for making very different gear. However, that makes them the perfect bedfellows for this collaboration, which sees Osprey’s bag-making expertise collide with Danner’s footwear prowess for a one-two punch of adventure gear. While you can buy the pieces separately, which include a pair of Danner N45 Max hiking sneakers and an Osprey Farpoint 40L backpack, they also go perfectly together.

2027 Nissan Juke EV

This may look like some wicked concept car. But it’s actually Nissan’s new Juke EV, which the company revealed for European markets. Although not meant for North America, the new Juke EV sports an eye-catching design that’s simply out of this world and certainly serves as inspiration for futuristic car design. Nissan replaced the Juke in America with the Kicks, but the Juke is still kicking around, utilizing Nissan’s next-gen electric drive system.

Audio Pro C5 MkII W Classic (Limited Yellow Edition)

Audio Pro’s C5 MkII W Classic is a wireless multi-room speaker that’s effectively a more retro-looking version of the company’s C5 MkII W, thanks to its exposed drivers and leather handle. It supports Wi-Fi and Bluetooth streaming and can be grouped into a larger multi-room system with the company’s other W-generation speakers (all released in fall 2025). Previously only available in a white (or Dune) finish, Audio Pro has introduced a special edition version in bright yellow.

Nike Moon Shoe OG “Summit White”

Nike made waves with the announcement of the reissue of its original, unreleased Moon Shoe silhouette. The retro ’70s-inspired model is set to make its mainstream debut later this year, and along with the original white-and-black colorway for the relaunch, there’s a new color palette on deck. The Nike Moon Shoe OG Summit White features a white leather upper, complemented by off-white, cream and grey accents. The revived classic maintains the new oversized Swoosh, as well as its traditional barely-there midsole. The new “Summit White” variant will be released May 7, 2026 through Nike and select retailers in-store and online in women’s sizing.

Stinner Frameworks Romero

Who says American manufacturing is dead? Santa Barbara, California-based Stinner Frameworks begs to differ with its first full-squish mountain bike. The hand-built beauty pairs a TIG-welded steel front triangle with a hand-fabricated 6061 aluminum swingarm, finished with a durable powder coat and brought to life by Ministry Cycles’ patented 3VO suspension system. Stinner offers frameset-only options in six sizes with two travel levels (the MT provides 150mm of fork travel and up to 140mm of rear travel while the LT boasts 170mm up front and up to 160mm in back), plus full builds with two different groupsets (SRAM Eagle 90 and SRAM XO Eagle) so you really can choose your own hill-toppin’, rock-hoppin’ adventure. Available to order now, the first complete bikes will ship in June.

Mini x Vagabund Countrymans

Mini and Austrian design studio Vagabund have collaborated on two unique one-off Countrymans. Inspired by “adventure spirit, community culture and festival lifestyle,” they bring eye-catching touches like widened wheel arches, graphic accents and bold block colors. However, the real headlining features of the builds would be the integrated sound systems. Along with removing the rear side windows for outdoor sound projection, this meant installing tweeters and mid-range speakers directly into the bodywork. While each vehicle operates independently, they can be paired together to form a mobile stage.
