AltraAltra x Pleasures Experience Flow 3
The metallic Experience Flow 3 is a limited-edition collaboration between under-the-radar favorite Altra and Los Angeles-based lifestyle brand Pleasures. The refreshed shoe merges technical running design with underground culture, delivering a style that blurs the lines between form and function. Outfitted metallic silver-blue inspired by the tone of satellites in orbit, the upper features silver paint accents inspired by the movement of speed. The Experience Flow 3 maintains Altra’s signature roomy toe box and low heel-to-toe drop.
BeatsBeats USB-C to USB-C Cable (10 Feet)
Beats introduced its first collection of charging cables in early 2025. They came in several colors, supported USB-C, USB-A, and Lightning connections, and they all were 5 feet (or shorter) in length. Fast forward to 2026, and Beats has introduced its longest USB-C to USB-C cable yet. It’s 10 feet long and has the same “tangle-free woven” design as its shorter siblings. And it’s optimized for ultra-fast charging, supporting up to 240 watts. This new cable comes in four finishes: Bolt Black, Surge Stone, Nitro Navy and Rapid Red.
OptimusOptimus Gemini II
The renowned 127-year-old Swedish brand’s new dual-burner stove is next-level portable thanks to a compact fold-flat design and a weight well under two pounds, yet it still offers loads of versatility and capability. A pair of 4,600-watt burners with independent flame control let you boil, simmer or cook multiple dishes at once, while built-in pressure control, an integrated wind shield and a slim but sturdy frame ensure steady, stable performance in variable and even exposed conditions. Producing 4,600 watts and a boil time of four minutes per liter of water, a single burner delivers more than 160 minutes of burn time at full power with a 450-gram gas canister.
NomosNomos Glashütte Club Sport Neomatik Worldtimer White
Nomos adds a classic colorway to its hit Club Sport Neomatik Worldtimer, pairing a creamy white, silver-plated dial with red and blue “Pepsi” accents on its 24-hour dial. The 40mm stainless steel case is water-resistant to 100m, and the in-house Cal. DUW 3202 automatic allows the wearer to adjust their current time zone and city in one-hour increments by using the pusher at 2:00. Best of all, unlike most other Worldtimer references, this one is not a limited edition and joins Nomos’s permanent collection.
Hyundai2027 Hyundai IONIQ 3
Hyundai continues to make a case for affordable electric vehicles as the Korean automaker just revealed its new entry-level IONIQ 3 hatchback. Designed and engineered with frugal and sensible Europeans in mind, the IONIQ 3 essentially arrives as an EV version of the old Veloster and i30. As such, it features Hyundai’s latest 400-watt Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP) good for up to 214 miles in standard form and 308 miles with the upgraded battery. On the appropriate fast-charger, the IONIQ 3 can juice up from 10 to 80 percent in under a half an hour.
