Barbour X Crocs Bedale Jacket

It’s no secret that Barbour likes a fun collaboration, and having teamed up with the likes of GANNI, Baracuta and NOAH in recent months, there’s always something exciting in the works in South Shields. That said, the 130-year-old brand teaming up with beloved clog company, Crocs, wasn’t on our bingo card. The collection is a natural juxtaposition of the classic and contemporary, and we’re big fans of the reworked Bedale Jacket. Created with all the trappings of the traditional Bedale, and complete with Crocs jibbitz, it’s a playful twist on an iconic piece.

The Lakes Distillery Signature Single Malt

The first permanent style of sherry-led whisky from the brand, the Signature Single Malt from The Lakes Distillery is a delectable dram born from patience. Utilising the distillery’s renowned technique of élevage, this whisky has been honed and refined throughout its ageing process to create an intriguingly complex profile. There’s strong aromas of polished oak, chocolate and dried fruits, before giving way to treacle, baking spices, figs and citrus on the palate.

Hamilton Intra-Matic Auto Chrono

We’re aware that it has been a watch-heavy week. And while we haven’t seen the latest Hamilton Intra-Matic Auto Chrono on the wrist of a 20-time Grand Slam winner stirring fondue with textbook Swiss elegance and nonchalance, we’d put that down to the wearer, rather than the watch. Inspired by its 1968 racing roots, this 40mm model offsets its subtle black dial and casing with a splash of statement orange. Add this to the H-31 automatic movement and 60-hour power reserve, and it makes for a champion-worthy, retro-inspired piece.

STUTTERHEIM Stockholm Raincoat

Though our internal optimists will have us believe that summer is here and the more practical garms can return to the dark corners of the wardrobes from whence they came, April showers sadly do occur, and it is never a bad idea to have a light, functional layer on hand. Thankfully, Swedish brand, STUTTERHEIM has been expertly crafting unbeatable raincoats since 2010, and their fully waterproof, double welded (yet breathable) Stockholm Jacket has been beating the elements from the beginning.

MOSCOT + Ascari LEMTOSH Sun Limited Edition

As you would expect from a five-generation family-owned heritage brand, MOSCOT doesn’t cut corners. In fact, they actively welcome corners and take great pleasure in going around them. Take their freshly launched Ascari LEMTOSH sunglasses; made in collaboration with Ascari Design (known for their beautifully hand-crafted bicycles), each of the 250 pairs feature hand-wrapped leather temples, custom rivets, and uniquely composed gold hardware. Time-consuming to create, but timeless as a result.

Hu Dark Chocolate

A relatively new name to the UK confectionery game, Hu, has grown from a New York family business to an international brand that are fighting the good fight against artificial sweeteners and sneaky secret ingredients. With honesty and transparency at their heart, Hu is proud to share that their delicious ‘Simple’ bar contains just three ingredients (70% cacao, cocoa butter, and unrefined coconut sugar) and that their wider selection is free of worryingly hard to pronounce additives too.
