Lexus Sport Concept

Toyota’s Lexus Sport Concept offers a preview of the luxury brand’s next-generation sports car. As a wide, low-profile two-door, the design shows obvious similarities to the long-discontinued LFA. Though Lexus has not shared powertrain information or specifications, it follows previous teasers showcasing a Toyota-branded GT and GT Racing Concept. As such, it will likely be a hybrid V8.

Vans x J.Crew Premium Authentic

J.Crew is back with one of its best parlor tricks: a one-off exclusive Vans sneaker. This time, it’s the Premium Authentic, which adopts creamy off-white canvas upper and dark-green stripe around the top of the midsole. While the Authentic dates back to the 1960s, this version comes with Vans’s new Sola Foam ADC insole for all-day comfort.

HTC Vive Eagle

Best known for its Vive virtual reality headsets, HTC is entering the smart glasses category to compete with Meta’s Ray-Ban glasses and Amazon’s Echo Frames. The Vive Eagle is a stylish pair of shades with an integrated 12-megapixel ultra-wide camera that can be used to take photos and videos. There are built-in mics and speakers for listening to music and answering calls. And, since it’s integrated with the company’s virtual assistant, you can use “Hey Vive” voice commands to do things like play music, get restaurant recommendations, or take photos and videos. Pricing and US availability info have yet to be released.

Shinola Detrola

A fan favorite when it was introduced six years ago, the Detrola returns as part of Shinola’s Runwell family. Designed and built in the brand’s hometown of Detroit, the 41mm watch comes in three classic colorways plus two bolder limited-edition treatments channeling quirky ’80s vibes — all with matching FKM rubber straps. Other highlights include an Argonite 705 Quartz movement, a case made of stainless steel co-molded with TR90 resin and a pumpkin crown.

Moncler Trailgrip APEX2GTX

Moncler is known for its upscale take on outdoor gear, and these hiking sneakers fit right in with the rest of the brand’s catalog. While they’re made with some fine materials, like nubuck and leather — giving them elevated vibes — they’re also fully capable of exploring the most challenging terrain. To that end, they boast a beefy and aggressive Vibram Megagrip outsole, a waterproof Gore-Tex membrane, and a cushy EVA midsole mated to an Ortholite footbed.

The backpack straps are adjustable and can be shortened to carry the bag as a tote. It comes in black and crimson red, paying homage to the brand’s roots in Cambridge, MA.

Hay O2 Lounge Chair

Danish designer furniture label Hay’s fall 2025 collection includes several standouts, chief among them being the O2 Lounge Chair by Swedish industrial designer Jonas Forsman. The minimalist chair pairs a tubular steel frame with a shrink-fit layer of fabric that molds to the user while offering firm support. Forsman likens the experience to “sitting on air” due to its near-weightless feel. The chair is paired with a matching ottoman and is available in a range of upholstery options from DWR for $3,490.
