New & Noteworthy Releases
Project Foodie
This digital cooking app broke into the App Store’s Top 10 last month for a few reasons. It has a playful and intuitive interface, for starters. And more importantly, it has step-by-step videos teaching you how to make recipes by top-class chefs. The app was designed by Chef Daniel Holzman, creator of The Meatball Shop, along with his brother, Eli, an Emmy Award-winning producer and creator of Project Greenlight and Project Runway; and it can teach you to make a great number of dishes, from a juicy rib-eye steak to chocolate pudding. It’s basically a cooking TV show, with a whole backlog of episodes, that’s ready and waiting for you. It’s also free. — Tucker Bowe
686 Hydrastash Hydration System
686 has pushed the capabilities of snowboarding gear since 1992, and the company’s latest project is more of the same. The Hydrastash reservoir system integrates like a belt into the jacket’s powder skirt. It holds 25 ounces and according to early reviews, goes virtually unnoticed while on the hill. — Tanner Bowden
Jordan x Levi’s Air Jordan IV and Reversible Trucker Jacket
Levi’s and Jordan have teamed-up again to create the latest obsession for sneakerheads. The collaboration includes a limited denim version of the classic Air Jordan IV as well as a Reversible Trucker Jacket updated with the swatches of fabric from the Jordan warm-up suit in bold red. The shoes are on sale for $225 and the jacket for $180. Lines for the set started forming this weekend at some locations, and the Soho store in NYC was already forced to delay the release of the two classic items — so follow Levi’s on social to get the latest updates. The shoes and jacket are also available at the San Francisco Market Street store. To shop just the jacket, stop by a Levi’s in Chicago, Las Vegas, Ontario, Times Square and Meatpacking. — Meg Lappe
Away Coordinate Collection
Away is expanding on their bright and poppy base colors with a new line of dual-tone suitcases that includes a tidal blue and forest green called Cove, a muted pink and deep red called Canyon, and a birch yellow and desert grey called Savanna. They’re all available online now. — Meg Lappe
PencilSnap for Apple Pencil by Twelve South
If your Apple Pencil tends to get lost in your bag, popular Apple accessory maker Twelve South has a solution. The Pencil Snap magnetically sticks to any Apple Smart Cover or Smart Keyboard in the iPad Pro range, as well as Twelve South’s SurfacePad, making it easy to keep the Apple Pencil and advanced tablet together at all times. — Tucker Bowe
Adidas Alphabounce Sneakers
Adidas’ latest sneaker is aimed at athletes who include running in their training regime to gain a competitive edge. The shoe boasts serious cushioning and its continental outsole will grip any surface from treadmills to slippery streets. The forged mesh upper also moves with you, insuring nothing weird happens with your feet during agility exercises (think lots of quick feet and sharp turns). — Meg Lappe

Huckberry Shirt Jacket Sale
Save up to 30%: What’s a shirt jacket? Sometimes known as an overshirt or “shacket,” (but never a “jirt”), the shirt jacket occupies a delicate middle ground between button-up and outer layer. Huckberry’s current collection provides a useful survey of what a shirt jacket can be; there’s a lightweight denim shirt jacket built for temperate climates, an excessively stylish shirt jacket made from wool, a fully-insulated and waterproof shirt jacket designed to take on the elements, and many more. Nearly all of these versatile garments are on sale too — for up to 30 percent off. — Tanner Bowden
Danner Hiking Boots
Save 10%: Danner’s dependable and long-lasting boots have earned them a top spot in the hiking world since they started in 1932. A large selection of their boots, ranging from the Mountain 600 Enduroweave to the Mountain Light, are on sale for up to 10% off now. The Mountain 600 is a great lightweight option that’ll get you up the mountain but also looks good on the streets. The all-leather Mountain Light option delivers more of a stylish punch, with all the same technical features Danner is known for (breathable gore-tex waterproof lining and Vibram sole). You may have to dog a little to find your size, but your effort will likely be rewarded. — Meg Lappe
Club Monaco Coats, Jackets and More
Save up to 60%: It’s the middle of the January and, by all accounts, the end-of-season sales should be done and dusted — not for Club Monaco. The brand is offering up to 60-percent off on a number of its vests, coats and blazers. If you’re looking for stylish peacoats or topcoats, or just a really warm down jacket to combat the rest of winter, there are some great deals here. — Tucker Bowe
