Aritzia x Nike LD-1000 “Edition A” Sesame

Nike and Canadian “everyday luxury” fashion brand Aritzia continue their ongoing collaboration with a new version of the Nike LD-1000 ‘Edition A’ in a fresh Sesame colorway. The retro-inspired lifestyle shoe also includes a new special edition star charm. The silhouette continues to feature premium leather, with the Sesame color treatment inspired by vintage pommel horses, giving the vintage sneaker an aesthetic refresh rooted in heritage.

G-Shock Mudmaster GG-B100XM

A part of the beloved Japanese brand’s Master of G lineup, this G-Shock Mudmaster is “developed for professionals working in the harshest environments.” Not only does it have the brand’s legendary shock-proofing, but it is also virtually impervious to mud (and other soggy conditions). It also combines the line’s signature carbon fiber-reinforced construction with a durable and handsome stainless steel bezel (there’s also an ion-plated black version), granting it stylistic contrast and increased toughness. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

Apple MacBook Air (M5)

Apple refreshed its MacBook Air for 2026. It’s mostly the same as last year’s M4 model — in fact, it’s identical (it comes in the same four colors and 13- and 15-inch sizes) — but Apple upgraded it with its M5 chip, thus promising improved performance and AI capabilities. The base model also comes with double the base storage (now 512GB), but that comes at a $100 price increase. Additional upgrades include Apple’s N1 wireless chip for superior Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, and a more powerful 40-watt power adapter is included in the box.

Priority 174HUDSON MOLLE Panel Pannier Rack

Priority’s latest affordable innovation borrows from the military world to boost your bike’s carry set-up via the versatility of MOLLE (short for Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment). Compatible with any standard rear rack, the 20-ounce laser-cut aircraft-grade aluminum panel features a strap-friendly grid and 26 standard bottle cage-spaced holes. That translates to endless mounting options, enabling you to attach bags, tools, bottles, pumps and more — up to 20 pounds of whatever you need for your next two-wheeled adventure.

Apple MacBook Pro (M5 Pro/M5 Max)

Apple has refreshed its MacBook Pro lineup for 2026. It didn’t reinvent the wheel as the new Pros look identical to last year’s models, but the big news is they’re configurable with Apple’s new M5 Pro and M5 Max chips. For the first time, they’ve been built around Apple’s new Fusion Architecture, which, according to Apple, “combines two dies into a single system on a chip, providing tremendous performance boosts.” Like with the new MacBook Airs, Apple has increased the price of the new Pros, but also increased the base storage.

Ram 2500 Power Wagon Lunar Edition

In lieu of this year’s big lunar eclipse on March 3, Ram revived its special Lunar Editions of its 2500 Power Wagon and Rebel heavy-duty pickup trucks. Themed for the adventurous and rugged stargazers and star chasers, the Lunar Editions bring back special exterior and interior treatments, only available in these bespoke packages. The Lunar Edition’s signature Ceramic Grey Clear‑Coat exterior with Diamond Black Crystal Pearl‑Coat lower body cladding festoons the exterior, while the interior also gains matching color-theme upholstery with orange contrast stitching. Rounding out the package is the fitment of a unique lockable Mopar storage box with Satin Chrome lettering.

Apple Studio Display and Studio Display XDR (2026)

Alongside its M5 MacBook Air and M5 Pro/Max MacBook Pros, Apple has also introduced new Studio Display monitors. There are two models: the refreshed Studio Display replaces its 2022-released predecessor, while the all-new Studio Display XDR replaces the 2019-released Pro Display XDR. Both are 27-inch monitors that feature upgraded cameras and speakers, a more beautiful display and improved connectivity thanks to Thunderbolt 5 ports. The Studio Display XDR is the more professional-grade option, featuring mini-LED backlighting (for superb brightness and contrast) and a 120Hz refresh rate. Both are available in nano-texture glass options.

Ming 57.04 Phoenix

Ming updates arguably its most radical watch — the destro, monopusher chronograph 57.04 Iris — with the more subdued 57.04 Phoenix. Largely the same watch, the Phoenix makes a couple of key updates. Most notably, the watch’s dial features a dished gray top plate over the previous multiphasic dial, with radial cutouts that show a glimpse of the color show beneath while still exhibiting restraint. The chronograph register at 6:00 is also cut out of this top plate, making it more legible than before, and the 3/4 plate of the Sellita for MING Cal. SW562.M1 movement now features an anthracite coating to better match the monochromatic vibe of the Phoenix. The watch is available on a black FKM rubber strap or Ming’s 3D-printed titanium Polymesh bracelet.
