If New Balance has mastered one thing in the last couple of seasons, it’s the art of thematic collaborations. Recent collaborations from the brand have seen the athletic company push the limits on design and details to fit perfectly with their project. In their newest collaboration, New Balance and atmos have taken the nautical theme and created a practical and chic sneaker that will dazzle year-round. Taking in details and nods from the deep sea, the new collaboration between the two brands is ideal for those looking for a special sneaker that doesn’t feel gimmicky. In an easy-to-style colorway and with all of New Balance’s known technical features, there’s no reason why this sneaker won’t be on top of your wish list.

Taking on New Balance’s 1906 sneaker, both brands have given the techy shoe an oceanic upgrade. Crafted using a deep blue colorway with mesh and suede overlays, it’s clear to see the inspiration behind the design. The use of mixed materials gives the illusion of the various finds you would see in the depths of the ocean. The rugged texture and chunkiness of the design give way to a practical sneaker that can easily find a place in your closet. While it’s obvious that both brands found inspiration for the sneaker under the ocean, its silhouette and color scheme still make it appealing for everyday wear. Fans of the sneaker will first be able to get their hands on the oceanic design via a raffle hosted on atmos’ web store on December 13th. Afterward, a global launch will take place on December 21 online and in-store.

Ledbury goes fishing with first tech shirt in tandem with Current Culture
Get out of the board room and on the water with Ledburry
Current Culture x Ledbury fisherman

There are two ways to start a morning that most men experience. One is the daily grind. The moment you enter your office with all you need to accomplish for the day laid out in front of you, waiting for you to get to it. It can get monotonous; sometimes, even the shirt you're wearing can make the difference. Being excited to wear an elevated but comfortable custom shirt is what Ledburry adds to your day so you can get things done. But then there is that other day when you wake up before dawn, pack your truck, and head to the banks of the river, eager to wet your line and wait for the day's catch. It isn't about the fish; it is about reconnecting with nature and purging the stress of the grind from your soul. Luckily, that doesn't mean you have to lose the elevated but comfortable custom shirt. The Ledbury x Current Culture Tulu shirt is set up to be your new favorite tech shirt.
Getting you connected with the water

This is Ledbury's first tech shirt designed specifically for fishing, so they tested it out with guides from Current Culture in the streams of Virginia. It has two velcro chest pockets, side vents because you can rarely predict the weather in Virginia, and even a hidden cloth to keep your glasses clean. It is also made from 100% recycled polyester, so you can look and feel good while knowing that you are leaving the streams for those who follow us. A bonus is the custom sizing works the same as any other Ledbury shirt, so you know it will fit just as well and add function to the fashion.

When choosing hiking boots, most will solely focus on features that help support the foot inside and can successfully handle rugged terrain. For Our Legacy Work Shop and Italian-based ROA, creating their third collaborative design meant taking the hiking boot standard a step further. Made with recycled materials and an extensive craftsmanship process, the newest collaboration is nothing short of quality and style. Marking their third partnership, these two brands have included the best of their distinct styles and processes for the ultimate boot. While the craftsmanship takes this design to the next level, the materials and details truly make this a must-have for hikers. With plenty of character and sturdiness, the hiking boot delivers not only style but plenty of substance. 
Work Shop Andres Boot 

Using Swedish Vacchetta leather from residual tannery offcuts, these hiking boots are constructed and made in Italy, where they undergo further processes to get the design’s sleek look. With a vegetable tanning process, the uppers are given their unique coloring and character that makes every pair one-of-a-kind. Apart from leather, these boots utilize matte and hairy suede to give them even more texture and dimension. Vibram Megagrip soles and padded tongue give the hiking boot a further sense of volume and ruggedness. Smaller details like rope laces, heel tabs, and metal eyelets bring the design together. Ideal for rough terrain and urban environments, these are your typical hiking boots. The Andres Boot is available for purchase via Our Legacy’s web store and retail for 590 EUR in either black or brown hues.
