Shop TAG x Porsche

TAG Heuer

The TAG HEUER Carrera Chronosprint x Porsche ($9,200) is a limited edition timepiece created to pay homage to the Porsche 911. Its bespoke, ‘Porsche-inspired’ 60-second scale has a few tricks up its sleeve. When the chronograph is started, the seconds hand moves faster than normal across the red portion of the dial, then slows down as it circles the dial. Why? To imitate the sensation of accelerating a car. In fact, the seconds hand takes just 9.1 seconds to traverse the red section — just like the 911 accelerates 0 – 100 in 9.1 seconds.

This Shirt Is Fully Compostable

Alex Crane

Alex Crane’s ‘Porto Shirts’ ($155) are handcrafted in Portugal from 100 percent organic cotton, and then colored with mineral-based dyes and finished with natural corozo nut buttons. As a result, they can fully biodegrade without adding any toxicity back into the environment. Now available in four soft colors, each breezy shirt offers another great example of what this sustainable staples brand is all about.

McIntosh Announced a $50,000 Powered Subwoofer

McIntosh

The new McIntosh PS2K Powered Subwoofer stands over six and a half feet tall and weighs 458 pounds. Made up of four 13-inch drivers, the device taps the company’s patented Low Distortion High Performance Magnetic Circuit Design to ensure top power handling and efficiency. The subwoofer also features multi-layer carbon fiber cones, and a dedicated 500 Watt Class D amplifier. Thanks to its hefty price tag, the brand has barred direct online sales, but fans can read more specs and find local retailers at the link below.

Gerber Launched A Limited Edition Fixed Blade

Gerber

The Terracraft ($220 – $250) is only available online. Designed to fit in your kit as a first-class outdoor knife, fans can shop the knife in three handles, but they should choose the Micarta version, which boasts an all-weather grip specifically designed to perform in wet weather and slippery conditions. Boasting an extra thick S30V blade with a 90 degree spine (for fire striking), this piece will certainly sell fast.

Filson Dropped Tin Cloth Bags

Filson

Filson just released a new range of ‘Tin Cloth Bags.’ The full collection includes 12 different bags ranging from grid-print totes to durable fishing packs, duffels and briefcases. Each is made from the brand’s popular ‘Tin Cloth’ waxed-cotton, which adds durability and weather-proofing to some of our favorite formats. Easy to care for — and even easier to love — you can shop the full collection at the link below.
