Hermès H08 Bleu Saint-Cyr
Hermès expands its flagship sports watch line with this version featuring accents in bleu Saint-Cyr, one of the signature colors of the designer brand’s iconic Birkin bag. The striking color shows up on the luminescent applied hour markers and handset, as well as markings on the black gold-treated minute disc and even the numbers on the date wheel. The unique dial is rhodium-plated and crystal sandblasted for a grained finish, and the titanium case features a black ceramic bezel to complement the black gold minute disc. Inside the watch beats the Hermès Manufacture Calibre H1837 automatic movement, and bringing it all together is a bleu Saint-Cyr rubber strap with a titanium folding clasp.

Nothing Ear 3
Nothing’s third-generation flagship wireless earbuds, the Ear 3, look nearly identical to their 2023-released predecessors — they have a similar AirPods Pro-esque shape with a transparent design. The earbuds promise better sound quality, active noise-cancellation and battery life, but the headline new feature has to do with its charging case. It’s called “Super Mic” and it essentially turns the charging case into a standalone, high-quality mic for calls and video conferencing. The Ear 3 is available in two finishes: white or black.

Castelli Perfetto RoS 3 Jacket
Straight out of Veneto, Italy, this sleek cycling jacket is the first to feature a game-changing new material, Polartec AirCore. Emerging from the ingredient brand’s conviction that perspiration hurts performance much sooner than precipitation does, it promises the unlikely combination of air permeability, windproofing and water repellency — plus comfort and stretch. There’s a head-spinning amount of science and terms like “nano-fiber membrane” involved, but the bottom line is that over the long haul you stay cool, dry and pedaling your best, no matter the conditions. Hence “RoS,” short for Rain or Shine. The jacket is available for both men and women in four different colors and a range of sizes.

Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) Smart Glasses
Ray-Ban and Meta have released the second generation of their AI-powered smart glasses. They look just like the first-generation models — basically, like a pair of Ray-Bans — and work very similarly, too. However, the new models boast twice the battery life (now up to eight hours) and, maybe more significantly, boast upgraded cameras that are now capable of capturing up to ultra HD 3K videos. The sunglasses are available in three styles and a bunch of different colors.

Rumpl Fleece Puffy Blanket – Valley Dawn
The most popular blanket in the outdoors just received a cozy upgrade. Rumpl’s new Fleece Puffy Blanket brings together the beloved versatility, packability and durability of its puffer blankets and new, premium fleece, treated to be anti-static, anti-microbial and weather-resistant. A ripstop shell will stand up to adventures, and thoughtful details like the hands-free cape clip will keep you cozy wherever you roam.
