TraegerTraeger Irontop 2-Burner Griddle
Traeger is continuing to evolve its outdoor cooking offerings with the new Irontop Griddle Series, which brings flexibility and a more approachable price point to outdoor meals. The Irontop 2-Burner offers consistent edge-to-edge heat, a rust-resistant coating and heavy duty construction designed to last. The 504 square inches of cooking space offer plenty of room for whipping up breakfast pancakes, lunchtime burgers or dinnertime fajitas, and plenty more beyond. At $500, this is one of the more attainable offerings from Traeger, built with the same quality and durability as the rest of its catalog. The Irontop 2-Burner Griddle will be available for purchase beginning May 15th.
Rivian2027 Rivian R2 Launch Edition
Rivian is prepping the launch of its most important car in years, and that’s its new, midsize R2. To commemorate its arrival, Rivian just revealed the R2 Launch Package. It starts life as one of the higher-spec Performance trims, which features a dual-motor electric drive system pumping out a total of 656 horsepower and 609 pound-feet of torque, along with semi-active suspension for more road-hugging capabilities. But Rivian further distinguishes the R2 Launch Package by including the company’s Autonomy+ hands-free semi-autonomous highway driving assist for life (it’s a subscription feature otherwise), an optional bespoke Launch Green exterior with a matching Special Rivian Green anodized key fob, and the Tow Package as standard (enabling up to 4,400-lb capacity). Rivian has yet to reveal pricing, but sales will commence later this spring.
Bell & RossBell & Ross BR-03 Green Steel
Bell & Ross’s BR-03 may be the brand’s most purely instrument-based watch, with a design derived from airplane cockpit gauges, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be beautiful. As proof, the brand offers up the BR-03 Green Steel, which adds a gorgeous gradient green sunburst dial to the BR-03’s stainless steel “circle in a square” case. The look is equal parts luxe and toolish, with the two included tapered straps, one in black leather and the other black fabric, hinting at the watch’s dual nature.
LogitechLogitech G512 X Gaming Keyboard
The Logitech G512 X is the company’s new flagship gaming keyboard, and it’s its most advanced and customizable model yet. It’s unique because it’s the brand’s first keyboard with dual-swap technology, supporting both mechanical and analog switches. And it’s integrated with TMR (Tunnel Magneto Resistance) sensor technology, allowing players to map actions based on keypress depth. According to the brand, this makes it “perfect for flight sims, racing titles, and tactical shooters where millimeter precision is the difference between victory and defeat.” The G512 X is available in both 75 and 98 layouts, and comes in black or white finishes.
Duck CampDuck Camp Coastal Seersucker Shirt Short Sleeve
As we head toward summer and temperatures rise, this stylish button-up rolled collar shirt meets the moment with a 78% polyester/22% cotton seersucker blend that’s naturally light, breathable and quick drying. Available in Navy Blue, Moss and Birch colorways, the quietly technical garment also offers a pair of drop-in chest pockets with button closures, a microfiber sunglasses chammy in the shirt bottom hem and a back pleat for additional mobility (your minigolf game will thank you).
