On the heels of Rolex’s recent announcement, Jaeger-LeCoultre has launched its own certified pre-owned program, called ‘The Collectibles.’ The new program commemorates the brand’s 190th birthday and has kicked off with a new book under the same name. Chronicling key moments across the brand’s history, the book celebrates some of the brand’s most iconic models – and gives readers an excuse to find them online. Of course, the watches featured throughout its pages went live with the book’s release, and can now be found online at Jaeger LeCoultre’s The Collectibles page. Going forward, every timepiece purchased from The Collectibles will arrive with a new watch strap and box, two-year warranty and a copy of The Collectibles book.
Today we’re taking a look at a new cycling capsule, snowboard and Spyderco’s newest knife. This is Today in Gear.

Meet the New Spyderco Military Knife
While the original version first launched in 1996, Spyderco has now released the Spyderco Military 2 Knife ($280). Just like its predecessor, the new knife features a .145” thick clip point blade made with CPM S30V steel, and a handle set with grippy, G-10 scales. That said, it’s slightly lighter weight and no longer designed with the original liner lock. Instead, the brand has included its own compression lock, to ensure better structural integrity. Set to release in the coming weeks, this is a knife that will impress any true collector.

Meet Shaun White’s ASPENX x Whitespace Snowboard
ASPENX recently teamed up with Shaun White’s Whitespace to create a new snowboard – the Whitespace ASPENX Freestyle Shaun White Pro ($1,500). Described as ‘Shaun’s most versatile board yet,’ the new model was crafted for ‘effortless precision’ and designed with less surface area to ensure more speed. Constructed from an improved carbon fiberglass, the board was also treated with a plant-based bio-resin for enhanced performance. While still available, only fifty handmade boards were released in this series, so act fast if you want to bring one home.

ZEGNA Reimagines the Popular Triple Stitch Sneaker
The Italian brand’s Triple Stitch has quickly grown into a cult favorite, but now, CONCEPTKICKS founder Daniel Bailey is pushing the silhouette a little further. To create the new Triple Stitch MrBailey Sneaker ($1,290), the team took the classic shoe and hand-wrapped a single piece leather strap all the way around the sole. To create the final, textured look, the team applied a treatment that draws from yakisugi, a traditional Japanese wood preservation technique. The result? A show-stopping, futuristic shoe you’ll want to wear everywhere.
