The city of Taxco, Mexico, was founded on silver — the mining and refining of the precious metal into jewelry, silverware, and other silverwork. The mines are gone, but the twisting medieval streets and alleys of the picturesque town remain. Taxco is the site of the 2016 Taxco Downhill urban mountain bike course, where 40,000 people come to watch the top riders in the world fly — literally — through the streets. Chris Van Dine, Antoine Bizet and Wil White load up on GoPros and take a reconnaissance lap of the streets of Taxco.
Self-taught tattoo artist JC Sheitan Tenet has lived without his right arm for most of his life. After a chance meeting at a tattoo convention, he and biomechanic artist Jean-Louis Gonza began working on a custom prosthetic.

From Performance ankle and no-show socks to slippers and boxer briefs, their men's line has you covered, and there are options for ladies and kids.

Air travel is enough of a hassle without dealing with sub-par luggage. Informed by the founders' experience, gained at renowned brands like Louis Vuitton and Tumi, Arlo Skye makes luggage with thoughtful features like the hard-side exterior pocket of this carry-on.

Free-Flex zipper technology stretches up to half an inch for over-packers (or unexpected trip purchases), antimicrobial interior lining keeps contents smelling fresh, the durable, lightweight impact-resistant polycarbonate exterior keeps things protected, and virtually silent spinner wheels glide smoothly through the terminal.
Vive la France. Artistic and eccentric — the French have given us fine art, fine food, fine fashion, and Louis the XIV. In that grand tradition, the Flying Frenchies have dedicated themselves to French ideals through sport. 2,000 feet above the ground, this comedy/sport collective adds a flair for the dramatic to the drama of BASE jumping from a zipline at 50 MPH.
No one likes zombies — unless they're on the screen and you don't have a role in the movie. So stopping a zombie outbreak before it becomes a full-blown apocalypse is important, and something the people in movies seem to be really bad at. They definitely should have talked to Professor of Epidemiology at Columbia University Dr. Stephen Morse. Dr. Morse walks you through the steps needed to prevent a zombie outbreak and make sure those delicious brains stay in your own head.
Rogue Territory has developed the Gotham City Wool Supply jacket for Wayne Enterprises and Uncrate. The design approach of this custom-developed, exclusive piece was with duality and versatility in mind. Duality in the fabric selections and construction on the jacket. Versatility in the refined cut and finish. Fabrications from Japan were sourced to accomplish both. The exterior fabric is a densely woven wool, selected expressly for its structure, strength, and refinement. High tension ripstop lines the jacket allowing for an added tactical feel and added durability. The faux-fur collar completes the jacket adding effortless style and comfort. The Gotham City Supply Jacket is ready for anything a dark night might bring. Made in the United States of Japanese fabrications.
100% wool outer / Ripstop Nylon lining / Size up if in doubt
