K2 on the border of China and Pakistan is the second-tallest mountain in the world and one of the most dangerous — around one in every four of the people who reach the summit don't make it back. Polish skier Andrzej Bargiel successfully summited K2, and then skied back down over 28,000 feet, making him the first person in the world to do so.
Launched last April, Vita Coco Treats is a new coconutmilk beverage crafted for those moments when you're in the mood for something light, sweet, and satisfying. Combining the flavors of creamy coconut and sweet strawberries, Vita Coco Treats offers a refreshingly indulgent drink. Instead of flooding "influencers" with free products as promotion, they brought the product to the people this Valentine's Day in the form of a DIY vending machine. Set up in Washington Square Park, New York, it dispensed free Strawberries & Crème Treats to passersby, leading to long lines and an overwhelming response. This fun, natural experience is much like the drink itself, which has ingredients you can pronounce and is likely to leave a smile on your face.

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.
