This Stunning EDC Collection Draws from Vintage Skate and Surf Culture

The latest in TJB’s Artist Series collaborations, this new set is inspired by surf and skate culture from the ’80s and ’90s. Each piece is imbued with Oblow’s signature flair: vibrant colors and unique characters. The collection includes the brand’s Palmer utility cutting tool, Folsom pocket folder, Gatecliff notebook case, and Cambro valet tray. Plus, there’s a t-shirt with his Moblow Cat printed on it.

Colbo, a New York City boutique and clothing brand, designed a refined take on Sperry’s iconic Top-Sider boat shoe. A Goodyear-stitched leather outsole and stacked leather heel elevate the look, allowing it to be worn more like a loafer. Sperry’s signature sipping is carved into the leather outsole, and a rubber heel block adds traction. It comes in two shades of aged brown, achieved by washing the leather, and it includes rawhide laces.

The more affordable of two just-announced Moterras (the other being the $6,599 Moterra 3) is a lean, mean alloy-framed machine offering plentiful pedal assistance thanks to Bosch’s Performance Line CX Drive Unit, its most powerful motor yet. A Suntour fork with 160mm (~6.3 inches) of travel, RockShox rear suspension, Cannondale’s DownLow Dropper post and beefy Schwalbe 29×2.4-inch tires help you tackle the gnarliest trails and rock gardens while the swappable 600Wh battery with optional range extender ensure this $5,499 e-beast can churn dirt at least as long as you can. Both bikes will be available in shops and online in August.

Jim Beam’s budget bourbon brand, Old Grand-Dad, is known for offering a decent whiskey at seriously low prices, but this 2025 release takes things up a few notches. The annual version of the brand’s higher-end (but still affordable) 7-Year-Old Bonded Bourbon went into the barrel in the spring of 2018 and meets all the requirements for a bottled-in-bond whiskey, meaning it’s 100-proof, at least four years old and was produced at a single distillery during one distilling season. The whiskey offers an elevated take on Old Grand-Dad’s classic flavor with caramel and vanilla on the nose, caramel and vanilla with charred oak on the palate, and a long finish full of, you guessed it, more caramel.

Mercedes-Benz is calling the CLA Shooting Brake EV its first fully electric estate. It’s the second addition to the brand’s new entry-level family and essentially a version of the new CLA sedan that’s also bigger than the current CLA Shooting Brake, making it a more affordable vehicle to consider alongside Mercedes’ larger EVs. It’ll be available with single and dual-motor powertrains, with the former offering up to 473 miles of range and fast-charging tech that adds nearly 200 miles in 15 minutes. It offers impressive chops for longer drives. Inside, it also features the new MB.OS system and a massive 14-inch “Superscreen” dashboard with the option to add another 14-inch display for passengers. While final pricing hasn’t been announced, expect this to cost above $47,000 in Europe.

This is a GaN wall charger with a slim design, foldable prongs and dual USB-C ports. It’s capable of outputting 67 watts through one port, making it powerful enough to charge a laptop, or 45 watts and 20 watts when using both USB-C ports. It features a soft-touch exterior, which the brand claims gives it a “premium feel.” And it’s available in three color finishes: Black, Sand or Desert Rose.
