As a part of contemporary New York artist Tom Sachs‘ “STORE” in colette, the artist has released a series of limited edition exclusive products both collaborative and non. Aside from items such as remodeled Casio G-Shock watches, Sachs has also released the “Nutsy’s Deluxe Racing Set” for all to race at home, with or without a driver’s license.

Nutsy’s is an exhibition held at the Deutsche Guggenheim in Berlin in 2003, and is a “self-contained environment with elements built in both 1:1 and 1:25 scale.” Nutsy’s allow for maximum audience interaction with the exhibition, and for the 1:25 scale installation, viewers can race and play with Mini-Z racers.

For those who missed out on the exhibition held a whooping seven years ago, here is your golden ticket to built your very own racer and whoop all competition…since you can choose to only race against yourself. Each kit is individually numbered and signed, and encased in a  specially designed box.

Here is Adrien Sauvage of his eponymous menswear label, A. Sauvage. And he is here to teach us how he functions from day tonight, and how dressing becomes an essential but non-intrusive part of his day. To explore the notion of dressing for the men with a purpose, Sauvage has create an existential short film with narration by Larry Lamb, whose firm, masculine vintage voice gives the film a slight propagandist film as well.

In the video which can almost rival an artistic short, Sauvage works in the art of DE “Dress Easy” for occasions both mundane and formal. For instance, the lapel should be peaked at night, and side adjusters are favored so no belts are needed, and cufflinks should be rid off in the spirit of “no cufflinks, no nonsense”.

Enjoy the video, and in the mean time, ponder and formulate your own answer to the film-noir-esque existential query of the film–”Where is the designer?”.

Since J. Crew has taken a more meticulous and thoughtful approach to menswear, and became one of the first few to offer men an exclusive boutique shopping experience with the Liquor Store and the J.Crew Men’s Shop with heritage, high-quality labels scoured from all over the world (Alden brogue shoes, Imogene & Willie jeans and Thomas Mason shirts, just to name a few) it has been known to find the perfect collaborators to broaden the scope and reach of the label. J.Crew, is not just the upholder of American prep, but it is also the champion of timeless style. Amongst a broad portfolio of collaborators comes a new addition, the Boston born and bred sportswear company, New Balance.

It is time to put away those sweat pants, and the aged, shredded denim that you have worn from the laundromat to McDonalds to the dive bar but haven’t washed for as long as you could remember. It is time to put on some pants with Dockers.

While many may recall Dockers as a wardrobe staple for the middle-aged men (cue the pleated, comfortably loosely fitted khakis that are versatile enough for a business casual and Sunday service), the khaki doyen introduced by Levi’s in the 80s, Dockers has been reinventing itself as not just a wardrobe staple, but a timely necessity for men of all ages. Thus began the label’s collaboration with New York City’s Steve Alan, and an aggressive campaign rallying all men to “Wear The Pants”.

Tired of the city? Tired of looking at the Hudson from yet another concrete clad rooftop bar? Put on your hiking boots, make a big sandwich, throw a water bottle into your backpack and go hiking outside the city. For the first installment of Swedish outdoor gear company, Fjällräven’s, webisodes on its new outdoor/camping blog, Cold Splinter’s Jeff Thrope took the Fjällräven team hiking in Breakneck Ridge, which is only an hour away from the city by Metro North.

Call it the reformed, romantic moto– when Opening Ceremony teamed up with French label, agnès b. for their new year of themed design partnership (France being the nation of choice this year!), the iconic moto jacket has been stripped of its tough edges, and give the right romantic touch. The moto jacket which has been a part of the agnès b. archive has been updated with the Opening Ceremony touch in a soft, 100% cotton jersey material with navy and black stripes. Masculine with a softer touch, the new moto jacket is perfect for the willed contemporary man who doesn’t believed in confrontation, and is also the perfect topper for fall.
