G-Shock GA-2100K

For the latest spin on the brand’s beloved ‘CasiOak’ watch, G-Shock Japan has taken inspiration from nightlife and retro technology. The trio of watches all retain the original’s iconic octagonal looks and much of the same feature set, but they’ve been fitted with matte translucent cases (and integrated bands), blacked-out dials and neon nightclub laser-inspired accents. All three versions are priced the same and are expected to officially drop sometime this month.

Titaner TiZero

The mad scientists at Titaner never met a product category they didn’t feel could be made better with their favorite material. The latest target? The humble belt buckle, which in their hands gets CNC machined from a single block of grade-5 titanium into a frictionless form factor weighing less than half an ounce. The buckle comes with a veg-tan leather belt — in chestnut, midnight black or saddle tan — and a design that tucks the tail underneath for a streamlined look and feel. Note: estimated delivery for this Kickstarter-launched product is May.

LG OLED evo W6

LG has revived its super-thin “Wallpaper TV” that was first introduced in 2017 (and then discontinued in 2020). This 2026 iteration, dubbed the OLED evo W6, is again being touted as the “world’s thinnest” TV — it is just 9mm thick and sits flush against the wall when mounted. The key difference from its predecessor is that it’s compatible with the brand’s Zero Connect Box, which houses all the inputs and wirelessly connects to the TV, so no wires appear to be coming out of the TV. LG also added several other next-gen upgrades, including a new processor and support for modern display features, such as LG’s Hyper Radiant Color Technology. LG has yet to reveal sizing, pricing and availability information.

Relwen Superfleece Crew – Exclusive

Relwen’s ultra-cozy new fleece, a release exclusive to Huckberry, combines the sleek styling the brand is known for with an internal sherpa lining that is simultaneously lightweight and warm. The bonded bonded thermal cotton jersey face fabric is available in three colorways: bright and bold Sunset and Teal, and more wearable Chalk Heather. Split side seams, ribbed knit cuffs and a snap pocket on the front left chest add utility to this Huckberry-exclusive layer. A hidden cotton herringbone tape placed along the inside neck and shoulder seams eliminates snagging and bunching.

Bertone Runabout

Having initially previewed the modern revival of its A112-based Runabout concept back in 2024, Bertone is finally gearing up to bring the car onto the road as a functional creation. The Italian design house opened preorders last March, and now the Runabout is set to make its world debut at Retromobile Paris. With power coming from a mid-mounted V6 mated to a manual transmission, it’ll make 454 horsepower at the rear wheels. Just 25 examples are set be built in total, and they’ll be available in both Targa and Barchetta forms.
