New & Noteworthy Releases
Burton [ak] Down Insulator Jacket
Every season Burton is after an even higher performance from its [ak] collection while still making down pieces that look just as good on the streets as they do on the trails. Its also committed to meeting production standards that respect the environment and worker health. So this [ak] jacket has been revamped to match that challenge. The result is an ultralight and extra-packable layer that meets bluesign manufacturing standards. Highlights include premium 800 RDS down, smart vents and fleece-lined hand pockets. The jacket’s also available in a range of unique colors and patterns including speckled blue, camo and true black. Combined with a lifetime guarantee, this could be the smartest outerwear investment you’ll ever make. — Gear Patrol
Nomad USB Wireless Charging Hub
If you still don’t own a wireless charging pad for your new iPhone or Android device, Nomad’s ultra-convenient option should be at the top of your list. Like many charging pads, it’s capable of outputting 7.5W of power, so it’ll fast charge your phone to its full potential; but it also includes three USB-A ports and one USB-C port underneath its charging pad, allowing you to charge up to five total devices at once while monopolizing just one wall outlet. Best of all, it’s roughly the same price as other chargers offering fewer features. — Tucker Bowe
Hasselblad H6D-400c MS Medium Format DSLR Camera
Hasselblad’s latest camera is a significant innovation in high-res imaging, but you’ll probably never buy it. That’s because the pro rig costs as much as a car — a nice car — and is designed for institutions and museums looking to “record historic treasures in the highest image quality possible.” So-called “Multi Shot” technology is the key feature, which allows the camera to take six separate photos simultaneously, then stitch them all together into one high-res 400MP image. It can also capture 100MP images in a single-shot mode. Preorders are starting now with an expected ship date sometime in March. — Tucker Bowe
Ikea x Tom Dixon Delaktig Sofa System
Ikea is set to release a new concept line called Delaktig next month. Created in collaboration with celebrated designer Tom Dixon, Delaktig is a modular sofa system with an aluminum base that allows users to mix and match pieces to their individual needs. — Jack Seemer
Fender American Original Series
This new line of electric basses and guitars inspired by Fender’s past are all designed and handcrafted in Corona, California. They combine the company’s classic looks with more modern upgrades: including new fingerboard radii and switching, new pickups and new neck shapes. The series features 11 total models, available in 13 different colors, that range from $1,800 to $2,100. — Tucker Bowe
Matrix PowerWatch X
The Matrix PowerWatch X is a smartwatch that doesn’t require charging; it runs on body heat. It’s also built for everyday use and activity tracking, with customizable features, accurate calorie counting, and a power meter that shows how much electricity the body is making right on the face. This latest model is also water resistant up to 200 meters. — Tanner Bowden
CRKT Carbine Pocket Knife
The Carbine is a minimalist utility blade built to bring anywhere. The entire fixed-blade knife measures just under 4.5-inches, but its full-tang stainless steel construction and 1.85-inch drop-point blade make it far more capable than you’d think. It also comes with a sturdy glass-reinforced nylon sheath which you can wear around the neck via an included adjustable lanyard. — Tanner Bowden
