Cycle in Style with Rapha

Let’s face it the bike craze has been trending pretty hard these days. Bike lanes and bikesharing programs are opening in metro areas nationwide. Cycling gyms are leaving the gym behind and popping up on enough corners to give Starbucks a run for its money. If this is your scene take note of British-owned Rapha. The brand just launched their new City Riding Collection with some go-to pieces for the guy that pedals just about everywhere. Rapha specifically designed this line for the city guy that bikes daily and needs a versatile wardrobe. Check out our top three picks from the collection.

The Lapelled Jacket- Our favorite item from the collection – this jacket is essentially a blazer for the city cyclist. It’s constructed to protect from the elements, but looks sharp when you’re in the office or on the road. ($450)

Breitling honors the Italian Air Force with its new watch
Breitling Avenger B01 Chronograph 42 Frecce Tricolor

The new Avenger B01 Chronograph watch celebrates the partnership between Breitling and Frecce Tricolori Air Force, just as the name hints. Made up of 13 jets, the Frecce Tricolori is an Italian Air Force unit—a subdivision of the main unit—specializing in different kinds of air stunts and air shows.

The two brands, Breitling and Frecce Tricolori, go way back to the 20th century. Back then, Breitling focused on different types of watches, including aviation chronographs. The first airforce-inspired watch was rolled out in 1983 with advanced components, such as the rouleaux bracelet and rotating bezel. It had Frecce Tricolori’s logo and colors.

While there’s no denying that Salomon’s trail sneakers are state-of-the-art, their latest release reaches another level. Fused with military strength materials, Salomon’s latest collaboration Gr10k sees the classic Quest silhouette transform into the ultimate rugged sneaker.

Combining practicality, support, and style, the newest Salomon sneaker is surely to amaze. 
Hit the trails with Salomon’s Quest Low 2 Gr10k

Inspired by the Quest 4D boot, Salomon’s Quest Low 2 Gr10k utilizes some of the most durable footwear features to create a shoe you can’t ignore. With nubuck leather and single-layer mesh, the shoe’s uppers create a comfortable and breathable feel. In the midsole, a dual-density foam provides users with optimal motion control and stability. Crafted with an All-Terrain Contragrip, this sneaker is ready for all surfaces, in nature or the city. Adding to the protection, the design’s 4D Advanced Chassis and protective toecap add balance, cushion, and comfort features while protecting the foot. Finishing the design is a snug-fit lacing system complete with a convenient pocket, allowing users to feel secure and hazard-free in their journey. Now available via both brands’ web store, the sneaker retails for $190 and is expected to sell out quickly. Coming from the same pairing that crafted a pair of fire-proof sneakers, there’s no doubt that this new release will be a must-have for all adventure seekers.
