Nothing Ear (3a)

When it comes to $100 earbuds, it’s difficult to beat Nothing’s Ear A series. The 3rd-gen model, the 3a, has just been updated with 32MB of built-in storage for recording calls, activated with the pinch of your fingers. After that, the recordings are sent automatically to your Nothing X app. The drivers have been upgraded as well to 12mm, giving you fuller hi-res quality. Along with the usual black, white and yellow colorways, a new pink is also thrown into the mix.

McLaren M6GT

For the 2026 Goodwood Festival of Speed, McLaren’s MSO department created a vehicle like no other: a one-off M6GT using historic drawings and original molds. As Bruce McLaren’s original vision of a road-going production car, it actually predates the F1 by more than two decades. However, it went unrealized at the time, as the McLaren founder’s untimely passing meant that only a handful were built before the project was put on hold. To ensure authenticity, MSO used a period-correct small-block Chevy V8 and a five-speed manual gearbox, hand-fabricating other critical components like the internal clam and wiring harness. The Colnbrook white exterior and green interior color scheme is inspired by the livery of Bruce’s first McLaren Formula 1 car, a 1966 M2B finished in white with a green stripe.

PDW SPD STS-SFLT Mudhorn

The PDW STS-SFLT is undoubtedly one of the brand’s lightest, toughest tactical and outdoor knives. However, this edition kicks it up a notch, granting it a blacked-out finish. But it’s not just a colorway; that’s a Cerakote finish, granting this knife even more durability and toughness. It’s also still made from a single piece of MagnaCut steel, retains its skeletonized full-tang handle (with its paracord wrap) and comes with a Kydex sheath. As a final touch, this knife gets a Mudhorn sigil: a subtle nod to The Mandalorian (of Star Wars fame).

Hermès Cape Cod

Hermès’ icon from 1991, the Cape Cod, has spent most of its history as a ladies’ dress watch, but a few unexpected tweaks have turned the legend into a men’s sports watch. The 2026 Cape Cod introduces a 41mm titanium case featuring a satin-brushed top and bead-blasted sides. The black dial receives a similar finish, with a sandblasted center surrounded by a satin-finished outer portion that houses applied rhodium-plated Arabic markers. These markers, along with the hands (save for the bold orange seconds hand), are filled with Super-LumiNova, which, combined with the watch’s 100m water resistance, makes this a true sports watch. Also aiding in that regard is the Hermès Manufacture Calibre H1912 automatic movement, along with a rubber strap that’s available in four colors: jaune de Naples (yellow), orange, bleu abysse (blue) and black. The sportier Cape Cod will go on sale in September 2026.

Korchmar Nash Waxed Cotton Twill Wheeled Duffle

Korchmar turned a classic canvas weekender bag into rolling luggage by adding wheels and a collapsible handle that can be hidden in a zippered compartment. It is built from 18-ounce waxed cotton twill with cowhide leather trim. The interior is fully lined and features a large mesh zipper pocket and two pouches. The 13-inch by 22-inch by 11-inch dimensions accommodate most airline carry-on regulations.

Brough Superior Dagger S

Born in Nottingham, England in 1919, Brough Superior was reborn in the 2010s in Toulouse, France, with a small lineup of eye-popping hand-built “if you have to ask, you can’t afford it” motos. The latest riffs on 2022’s original Dagger, retaining the “bruiser” bike’s full-carbon bodywork, Fior-type cast aluminum fork system and 997cc water-cooled V-twin making 101 horsepower and 64lb-ft of torque. The big shift is in the ergonomics, as the bars have moved lower and farther forward, placing the rider in a more aggressive, racier position, just enough to justify the S/Sport branding. Price is not listed but likely to approach six figures.
