“I have always dreamed of having my own hat line at Lids. Being able to keep your dreams alive, never giving up and living life with a, ‘Why not you?’ attitude is what the 3Brand signifies.” Wilson said in a statement. “I can’t wait to see everyone wearing them.”

This isn’t the first time that Wilson and his partners launched threads with designs on making a difference by bringing out the best in men.

Good Man Brand’s

sharp blazers, streamlined sneakers and more feature the motto, “Lead. Inspire. Live.” 

The caps feature Wilson’s signature number ‘3’ logo, stylized and available in three different colored hats. This exclusive collection is one of three drops by Russell Wilson and 3Brand this year. The first drop includes three distinct colorways available in a flat-brimmed, snapback silhouette: black/white, white/black, and black/red. Additional colorways will launch in the coming months.  

“This collection not only offers our customers a way to express the important message of never giving up on dreams but also provide(s) them with a sense of excitement while wearing these caps,” Lawrence Berger, chairman of FanzzLids Holdings, said in a statement. 

In addition to the stylish snapbacks, 5% of sales proceeds will be donated to the Why Not You Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to fighting poverty through education and empowering youth to lead with a, “Why not?” attitude. (Good Man Brand also donates 3% of sales proceeds to the group.) The foundation’s mission is to equip today’s youth with opportunities and skills to become tomorrow’s leaders, achieved through equal education access for all students, as well children’s health and food security initiatives. 

The announcement follows a year that saw Lids add 70 stores during the pandemic and cement an international expansion agreement with the NBA. Lids remains the largest headwear retailer in North America, with over 28 million units sold annually across over 1,200 locations. 

Retailing for $39.99, the premiere collection is available in select Lids locations throughout the country and at Lids.com. Be on the lookout later this year for drops two and three of the exclusive 3Brand and Lids collaboration.

Tonda PF Micro Rotor Platinum will take your breathe away with its subtlety
Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF Micro Rotor Platinum

The new Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF Micro-Rotor Platinum is a subtle luxury statement with a minimalistic design—a laid-back aesthetic that’s quite interesting.

Speaking on the design, Michel Parmigiani. founder and master watchmaker, said, "The Golden Ratio is far more than a mathematical formula: it is the universal breath that orders beauty and harmony. Every creation I shape—from the curves of the lugs to the guilloché patterns—carries this eternal balance. It is the guiding thread, the invisible essence that connects the case’s proportions, the grace of the hands, and the soul of every timepiece. Through it, watchmaking becomes a silent poetry, an echo of nature’s immutable laws.”

Inspiration and creativity seem to be center stage in most runway shows and showrooms. However, as I made my way up North from Madison Square Park to The Prince George Ballroom in the Flatiron District, I found myself in a different sort of environment, the kind where the designer of the collection about to walk down the runway also served as the DJ. From the clothes to the tunes to the ideology, Rayan Alami had a hand in every aspect of his New York Fashion Week debut. After seeing designer after designer with the same philosophies throughout New York, Alami embodied the name of his debut collection at Fashion Week, "I am Different."
Using music and culture to blend a unique style

New York Fashion Week is essentially an opportunity to blend art and fashion into one and tell a story through sartorial expression. While designers find inspiration in all walks of life, Alami uses his multicultured heritage and his love of music to blend a style truly unique in the industry. When I sat down with him after his show, I asked how he brought culture to his work.
