Nike Varsity Elite Backpack

From the courts to the terminal, Nike's Elite Varsity Backpack has you covered. A large main compartment fits a full-size basketball, while a separate bottom pocket keeps shoes and gear isolated. An exterior front pocket provides quick access to smaller essentials, and a trolley sleeve allows it to attach easily to luggage for away games. Designed for daily use, the backpack also includes an internal laptop sleeve that fits up to 16 inches and a plush-lined top pocket for valuables. Air Max shoulder straps add comfort, rounding out a durable build made from 100% polyester

Collars & Co. Monterey Cotton & Linen Overshirt

The Monterey Overshirt from Collars & Co leans into the kind of effortless layering piece that works year-round without overthinking it. Cut from a lightweight cotton-linen blend with a touch of stretch, it delivers breathable comfort with just enough structure to hold its shape, striking a balance between relaxed and refined. Details like patch pockets, working buttons, and a clean pointed collar keep things classic, while the unlined construction makes it easy to throw over a tee or polo as temperatures shift. Machine washable and designed for a true-to-size fit, it's a straightforward staple that slots easily into a daily rotation without feeling like an afterthought.
