Sculpting with Sneakers
There's a lot of old sneakers in the world. Artist Gary Lockwood is putting them to good use. Gary makes masks — stormtroopers, gas masks, and other fanciful creations — from old shoes, and gives a new meaning to the word sneakerhead in the process.
Defy the Monstars

Jack Archer Jetsetter Tech Pants
Long gone are the days of stiff, wrinkled chinos. Modern pants are cut from a different (better) cloth, and Jack Archer's Jetsetter Tech Pants are a prime example. Crafted from premium Rebound fabric sourced from Japan, they're stretchy, wrinkle-free, anti-odor, and stain-resistant, making them great for travel. The fit provides room where it's needed but is slim where it's not, and is enhanced by a diamond-shaped gusset that prevents tightness in the crotch and the curved-waist design that provides a lift to the backside. Built with premium stitching, they also feature a zippered coin pocket and hidden reflective tape that's only revealed when they're cuffed. Now available in two cuts: the original, best-selling Slim Fit and the new Straight Fit, which offer a roomier fit from the knee down.

The Grand Tour Race Toy Cars
The Grand Tour hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May love cars — but the ones they're used to are a little bit bigger. While the racing isn't exactly fast and furious, the finer points of zero-emissions are discussed, with environmentalist Jeremy Clarkson a big fan of the little electric cars.
Johammer J1
Electric motorcycles are nothing new. There are several on the market, and have easily outdone automobiles in bringing zero-emissions vehicles to the masses. But the Johammer J1 looks to be the Tesla of the electric motorcycle market — not just a standard frame with batteries and electric motors, but a complete reimaging of the motorcycle as we know it.

The KilgourMD Bundle
Stanford dermatologist Dr. James Kilgour's eponymous hair growth brand, KilgourMD, has been shown to outperform the popular minoxidil, which only works to regrow hair once it's gone. The KilgourMD Bundle, however, puts patients on the offensive, too, providing a dual-acting proactive and reactive solution to hair thinning and hair loss. In clinical studies, the system — which is made from natural, plant-derived extracts and comprises The Prevention Scalp Serum and The Treatment — decreased visible hair fall by up to 30% and stimulated hair follicle growth by up to 200% over two months. Save 15% when bundling.

All World Maps are Wrong
In the 16th century, Gerardus Mercator created the Mercator projection map. The projection is great for navigating sailing ships using simple tools like a compass, but it fails hard when it comes to representing size — the island of Greenland is nowhere close to being as big as Africa. Vox looks at the difficulties in making a sphere into a flat plane, and why making an accurate map is mathematically impossible.
