Proof x Danner MTN45 Low

The MTN45 Low Hiker is already Danner’s most advanced hiker to date, but it also happens to be the platform for Proof (Huckberry’s in-house exclusive brand) to craft its first-ever collab shoe. Not only is this sneaker extremely capable, courtesy of its luggy Vibram N45+ outsole (which can be recrafted), TPU rock plate, LIBA Smart TPU mudguard and OrthoLite open-cell footbed, but it is also done in a stunning, exclusive Nacreous Clouds colorway with Proof co-branding and a timeless suede upper.

Caterham Seven HWM Edition

Caterham and UK-based sports car dealership HWM (Hersham and Walton Motors) have launched a limited-edition model known as the Seven HWM Edition. Inspired by the legendary 1951 HWM-Alta grand prix car, it features an exclusive HWM green, race car-inspired side panel louvers, a bespoke nosecone grille as well as suspension wishbones, anti-roll bar and headlight brackets finished in Retro Grey. Inside, the theme continues, as you’ll find a hand-turned aluminum dash with Smiths instruments and polished wood. Nevertheless, with power coming from a 210-horsepower 2.0-liter Duratec four-pot, it can hit 60 mph in just 3.8 seconds. Just 19 are to be built in total.

Big Agnes x Polartec Sleeping Bag Liner

Innovative textile company Polartec and camping equipment staple Big Agnes have teamed up to release a cozy, capable new addition to the classic camp sleep setup. The Sleeping Bag Liner weighs just six ounces, but provides five to ten degrees of additional warmth while maintaining airflow during sleep and a super-packable design while loading up camp. Designed with Polartec© Alpha™ active insulation, the liner can be used as a warmth booster for three-season camping, a standalone sleep system for summertime and extends the lifespan of your sleeping bag.

BenQ MA270S

BenQ’s 27-inch monitor, the MA270S, is positioned as an affordable rival to Apple’s recently refreshed Studio Display. It’s the same size, features a Nano Gloss panel with true 5K resolution, wide P3 color support, and single-cable Thunderbolt connectivity, so it works seamlessly with Macs. The main trade-offs are that it lacks a built-in speaker system and a fancy webcam, but at $600 less, it could be a bargain for many Mac users.

BMW Alpina XB7 Manufaktur

BMW’s high-performance spin-off on its full-size SUV, the Alpina XB7, has officially come to an end after a six-year production run. To mark the occasion, BMW Alpina created a special-edition XB7 called the Manufaktur. Built to celebrate the XB7’s success, it comes painted in the choice of either matte Frozen Alpina Green or Frozen Alpina Blue, which are two completely new colors for the brand. On the inside, brown Lavalina leather lines the seats and upholstery, while the SUV comes with special handmade Alpina weekender bags made of the same material. The XB7 also comes with commemorative badges to note the moment. But if you’re looking to score one of these exclusive XB7 Manufaktur models, you’ll need to set aside at least $181,550 (inc. destination) and get on the horn with your dealer quick, as only 120 will be made between the US and Canada.
