Icebreaker by Josh Rubin
It's Summertime here in NYC so it's a little hard to think about cold weather fashion. But down in New Zealand they're coming upon Winter. Fortunately for them, there's Icebreaker, an NZ based company that designs and manufacturers high tech and stylish Merino wool sport clothing. Their lines include under layers, mid layers and outer wear-- all warm, good looking and easy to care for. Check out their lovely site for product descriptions and a store finder.
Thanks Charles.

De Grisogono Meccanico dG
Contrary to its appearance, the Meccanico dG has no digital components. Below the more conventional analog portion of the two-timezone watch is a numerical display driven by the intricate interplay of 651 strictly mechanical components. Numbers are formed by the motion of 23 cams, which are connected to gears and a synchronization system. To prove it, the watch's back features a transparent dial plate...

Our recent post about Heath's picnic set introduced us to the rugged good looks and quality craftsmanship of S. Stein Workbags. Designer Sherry Stein, with several of her own lines and years at places like Nike and the Gap under her belt, took a cue from the utility of Doctor's leather bags, bricklayer's canvas bags, military surplus and toolbelts to come up with a...
