The partnership between Kith and ASICS has already proven to deliver stylish and practical sneakers for everyday life. In their latest collaboration, the two brands have upgraded the Gel-Kayano 12.1 and the Gel-Nimbus 10.1 into sleek and modern color palettes that fuse their aesthetics. With a cleaner look for both styles, these redesigns give the sneakers new versatility and improved support for daily use.

The Gel-Kayano 12.1 has been brought into the modern era with a refreshed light green and off-white colorway for a light-colored sneaker with all the support. Featuring an off-white mesh, light green accents, and silver details, this color combination is modern yet soft. On the other hand, the Gel-Nimbus 10.1 offers wearers a much more neutral palette that’s versatile for any occasion or closet. Using mesh overlays, tonal accents, and gel cushioning for extra support, this sleek and modern pair is great for those who want a shoe that easily fits any style. Both designs are now available via Kith’s app, website, and select in-store locations. These Kith x ASICS shoes retail for $180 and are a great option for those seeking a more special shoe without reaching for bold colors and prints. The ASICS x Kith partnership has proven once again to be one filled with sleek and modern ideas that successfully highlight each brand and deliver a practical shoe that anyone can use for all occasions.

Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

H. Moser & Cie., the Neuhausen-based Swiss watchmaker, has released the Endeavour Minute Repeater Cylindrical Tourbillon Skeleton Cosmic Rain — a $440,000 flex limited to 20 examples.

The Real Big Deal here is the chiming. This watch has a minute repeater: a complication that, on demand, rings out the time on tiny hammers striking some gong. It’s hours, quarters, and minutes, in sound.

Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Guess what? It’s another MoonSwatch — but this isn’t just another colorway. The new drop from the Switzerland-based watchmaker, the MoonSwatch Mission to the Moon 1969, is the first to use real gold across the dial, hands, crown, and pushers.

The watch marks the anniversary of the Apollo 11 landing on July 21, 1969.

Breitling’s new Top Time is a wearable tribute to the Aston Martin DB5
Car, Watch, Man

Breitling just released a trio of heaters: the Top Time B01 Chronograph 41 Tribute to Aston Martin DB5, a three-edition collaboration with the British carmaker. The connection between the Swiss watchmaker and the British car company runs back to 1965, when a Top Time ref. 2002 appeared on Sean Connery’s wrist in Thunderball, worn alongside the DB5 — the first Q-modified watch in the Bond series. It’s a nice bit of trivia that the DB5 and that Top Time shared the screen in the same film, and both went on to outlive the movie by decades.

The car cues go deeper than the “squircle” gauge-shaped subdials: a wooden inner ring nods to the DB5’s steering wheel, and each edition rides on a hand-colored gradient calfskin strap meant to read like automotive upholstery. All three run on Breitling’s in-house Manufacture Caliber 01, a COSC-certified automatic chronograph with a 70-hour power reserve, visible through a sapphire caseback and finished with an Aston Martin-engraved rotor. The case measures 41mm. The editions are divvied up by material and rarity. Stainless steel with a silver dial is limited to 1,022 pieces and sticks closest to the original ref. 2002, while steel with a platinum bezel and black lacquered dial drops to 315 pieces.
