Two of watch world’s coolest tastemakers — Dimepiece founder Brynn Wallner and Foundwell’s Alan Bedwell — have released their second collaboration with Timex. This “Blackout” edition of the Intrepid decks it out in an all-black stainless steel case and strap. And at just $269, it’s a relatively affordable gift option for the watch guy (or girl) in your life.

Six pounds of Spain’s finest Manchego, sourced by Flamingo Estate from cheesemaker Quesería 1605, located in La Mancha. With notes of toasted pineapple, almond, and marzipan, this makes a super special gift (or keep it on hand to carve away during all of your upcoming holiday hosting).

Is there any brand Sperry hasn’t collaborated with? But we must admit this is a particularly good one with Colbo, which has designed a very interesting loafer that the brand describes as “somewhere between a vintage suiting shoe and a ballet flat.” The low vamp also offers plenty of opportunities to show off some colorful socks.

Speaking of footwear collabs, cool-guy shop NN.07 has teamed up with Clarks to jazz up their Desert Boot and their Wallabees. Launching on November 9, the Desert Boot in particular caught our eye with its jaunty buckle — Strategist senior writer Michael Zhao described them as “very Renn Fayre,” in a good way.

Two Gen Z-favored brands, Heaven Mayhem and Ouai, have made two wearable perfume pendants. One is designed in a two-tone metallic finish and stores Ouai’s floral Rue St. Honoré scent; the other is black and silver with a very on-trend black tassel and houses the warmer Ibiza scent. Bookmark now for your college-age niece whom you never know what to buy for the holidays.

Two of our favorite brands — Fujifilm and Cotopaxi — have this fun kit out which includes a Fujifilm Instax Mini 13 camera, a Cotopaxi Camera Shoulder Bag, a Cotopaxi Camera Strap, and a Cotopaxi Accessory Bag, plus plenty of film.

Alex Mill’s new winter collection is supremely cozy with plenty of fair isle sweaters and faux fur to keep you warm until April. Strategist senior editor Hilary Reid is particularly fond of the candy-stripe cardigan, and I’ve personally got my eye on a pair of the velvet flats.

Even Play-Doh is getting in on the romantasy game and has released a floral craft kit inspired by Sarah J. Maas’s A Court of Thorns and Roses series. While AO3 is down, it might be nice to have something to do with your hands.
