Two things occured to us when we saw Need Suuply Co.’s down vest. First, yes, we would like to have it. Second, it’s going to be pretty tough to make it through this description without making a Back to the Future joke. To speak to the first one, a good down vest is a must have for the cooler months. Simple, functional, and possessing an attractive utilitarian style, the down vest has persevered through the decades for a reason. And while goose down ain’t cheap, it’s a worthwhile investment to own a good, handsome life preserver. Er, vest. Shit.

G5-Cool-Material

Vaer has been one of our favorite watchmakers for as long as we can remember because they produce new, classic watches based on iconic designs. Case in point, the Vaer G5 Meridian watch you see here. This timepiece is a 1950s-inspired 20ATM automatic watch that’s USA-assembled, dual timezone, built with ocean-ready functionality, self-winding and the brand’s first true GMT (the latest version of their core dive watch design). What’s more, it pays homage to other watches that are incredibly more expensive or hard to come by whilst also adding new aspects that makes this Vaer G5 Meridian watch more desirable than the other options in our opinion.
