Snow Peak Mini Hozuki Lantern Shade Tsubomi

Akin to the Yeti Gear Garage, Snow Peak Festival drops see the brand release one-offs and limited-edition variants of its beloved camping gear. This washi paper shade, part of the most recent Festival lineup, brings a soft glow and traditional touch to the Mini Hozuki Lantern (sold separately), calling to mind the classic paper lanterns.

New Balance 2002DX Gore-Tex ‘Protection Pack’

This New Balance, with its deconstructed upper, was already one of the brand’s most interesting dad shoes. But it just got even more interesting, thanks to a pretty significant yet hidden upgrade. The shoe retains its leather and mesh upper, but now it has a Gore-Tex membrane, meaning water — be it rain, silt or snow — just beads right off. It also sports a cushy ABZORB midsole and extra ABZORB SBS heel cushioning. And the outsole boasts a Stability Web and N-ergy supports.

Farm Rio X Whitespace Lucy Floral Puffer Jacket

The Lucy Floral Puffer Jacket, part of the new Farm Rio x Whitespace collaboration collection, marries technical precision to signature flair, resulting in a high-performance jacket that is both vibrant and cool (although sadly, the fuzzy earmuffs are not included.) The puffer offers robust synthetic insulation, a reliable PFC-free DWR waterproof membrane and 2L woven, recycled plainweave face fabric. The vibrant tropical print hearkens to warmer climes, while the technical components are ready for whatever winter throws your way.

Tesla Cybertruck Forged UP-RW Wheels

Having already changed the Tesla wheel game with its indestructible UP-RW for the Model 3 and the Model Y, Unplugged Performance is now back with an option for the Cybertruck. Rated at 1,450 kilograms and built with factory-tire compatibility, a replaceable curb-guard ring and an aero-optimized design, it’s a tough 20-inch wheel that promises performance on par with the rugged angular pickup. Customers can even trade in their existing wheels for a $1,000 rebate.

Nomos Glashütte Club Sport Neomatik Worldtimer ‘Scenic Route’

To close out 2025, Nomos drops two more limited editions of its flagship release for the year, the Club Sport Neomatik Worldtimer, featuring new dial colors. Collectively dubbed the “Scenic Route,” the two new watches offer a more elegant take on the whimsical travel watch via their champagne dials and shell cordovan leather straps. “Roam” features a light blue city ring with green and orange accents, while “Reverie” opts for a sand-colored ring with yellow and maroon highlights. Both versions are limited to 175 examples each.

Brabus 900 Superblack

Brabus is mostly known for sprucing up Mercedes-Benzes, but how about a Bentley? Meet the first-ever Brabus Bentley, the 900 Superblack. Known for very ostentatiously tuned and upgraded Three-Point Stars, Brabus decided to change course and tweak Britain’s premier ultra-luxe sports coupe and convertible, the Continental GT and GTC. Like all other Brabus models, the company takes the plug-in hybrid Conti GT/GTC, tunes it to an eyewatering 888 horsepower, and complements it with a very sinister and flashy carbon fiber body kit, wheels and interior upgrades.

Protect Our Winters x Gnarly Mint Mocha Whey

If you crave a fresh spin on clean protein, Gnarly’s limited-edition winter flavor has you covered with this unique blend, which can be stirred into coffee or hot chocolate or consumed the traditional whey way after a long day on the slopes. Free of artificial sweeteners, each serving packs 25 grams of grass-fed whey protein concentrate and 7 grams of naturally occurring BCAAs, plus digestive enzymes and probiotics.
