Skechers is making a serious push onto the hardwood with a basketball collection built around the demands of modern play. Headlined by the same models worn by OG Anunoby, the lineup balances speed, control, and explosiveness across two distinct silhouettes.

For those who rely on lift and grip, the SKX Reign focuses on aggressive traction and support designed to keep movements sharp on both ends of the floor. Together, the collection reflects a performance-first approach that mirrors Anunoby's own game: versatile, powerful, and always under control.

Augustinus Bader's The Retinol Serum rethinks traditional retinol treatments with a formula designed to deliver visible skin renewal without the irritation that often comes with high-performance vitamin A products.

Built for long days that start in the surf and end somewhere near the bar, Brixton's latest trunk lineup balances heritage styling with modern performance without leaning too hard into either. The Blitz Boardshort is the more aggressive option, a lightweight stretch trunk cut from quick-dry polyester and spandex with a water-repellent finish, invisible zip pocket, drainage eyelet, and bold graphic treatments that push beyond the standard washed-out beach palette. Available in both 19-inch and 21-inch outseams, it is engineered to move cleanly from paddle-outs to pool decks with minimal fuss. Countering it is the Classic Trunk 17", a stripped-back staple with clean lines, minimal branding, and an easy shorter cut that feels rooted in vintage surf culture while still delivering dependable quick-dry performance. Together, the collection hits the sweet spot between technical utility and everyday wearability, exactly where Brixton tends to do its best work.

The modern sneaker rotation demands versatility. One day starts with a flight across the country, the next with a coffee stop across town. The Nike Zoom Vomero 5 thrives in both worlds, combining the technical complexity of an early-2000s running shoe with the understated versatility of an everyday staple. Layered mesh, synthetic suede, and plastic accents create a distinctive honeycomb-like look, while Zoom Air cushioning and a foam midsole provide comfort for long days on your feet. Originally built for performance, the Vomero 5 has become one of Nike's most adaptable silhouettes equally comfortable navigating airport terminals, city streets, and everything in between.
