Today in Gear: The Day’s Best Product News

‘Polestar 3’ development is officially almost done, and fans can expect US production to kick off in early 2024. Originally unveiled in October of last year, the new electric mid-size SUV is expected to start shipping in Q2 2024 — but as far as we can see; it’s going to be worth the wait. The brand recently shipped a fleet of Polestar 3 prototypes to Abu Dhabi, where they underwent extreme hot weather testing to ensure their climate system could perform in temperatures up to 122 degrees Fahrenheit. Fans can reserve the Polestar 3 today for a (fully refundable) $1,000 deposit.

Today we’re taking a look at a gorgeous axe, smartwatch and new sneakers from New Balance. This is Today in Gear.

Buck Mason Released a Felted-Wool Collection

Buck Mason

Just in time for fall, Buck Mason has released its new AW23 Felted Wool Collection. In it, fans will find a felted Chore Coat ($248) and Field Shirt ($248). Both are cut from the brand’s proprietary felted wool, which is a 100 percent merino wool that undergoes a two-step boiling process to make it even softer — and warmer. Available now and built to impress, you’ll spend the rest of the year in this gear.

New Balance Goes Gorpcore

Slam Jam

The 610S Sneakers ($152) come from the brand’s Tokyo Design Studio — and yeah, they’re a lot cooler for it. Equipped with a smart heel pull tab (and no laces) the sleek shoe topped a mesh upper with brown leather overlays, to create an eye-catching form that will hug your foot. Meanwhile, a durable rubber outsole will keep the shoe fall weather-ready.

Yep, You Want This Axe

Knifeworks

Columbia River Knife and Tool’s new Skeggox Axe ($113) is simply gorgeous. The compact, bearded axe boasts a full tang, nylon handle that’s been reinforced with glass for even better strength. Meanwhile, the SK-5 carbon steel blade promises to hold its edge, while an added powder coating also adds additional corrosion resistance.

All Dogs Deserve to Be Cozy

NAADAM

This year, spread the love with a little cashmere for your pup. Naadam’s Cashmere Bone Fair Isle Dog Sweater ($85) is a cozy, graphic knit that comes in several sizes. It’s another home-run from the brand — which has quickly become a popular go-to for all things cashmere — and could be all you need to help your favorite furry friend gear up for shoulder season. There are also a few of the brand’s classic solid Cashmere Dog Sweaters ($85) available, so shop today to scoop one up.
