Nike's recent foray into trail running product has been limited but successful. Having tried out the Free Hyperfeel Run Trail, I've mainly been using the Terra Kiger, but both are good for different types of terrain. This fall sees the release of the Terra Kiger 2, and the updated silhouette, fabrics, and colour options are all just right. I'm pretty anxious to put a few more kilometers into my current trail runners so that I can upgrade to the second edition sooner rather than later.

Words

Drake’s make some of the finest and most enduring accessories, which you are likely to treasure for a lifetime. The motif on this wool and silk pocket square is a real eye-catcher that is sure to add interest to any jacket pocket. In its entirety the design is pretty wild, but with only a glimpse of it likely to be showing at any given time, the colour will do all the talking.

The German brand A Kind of Guise has been producing some interesting designs over the last few seasons and this jacket made from a rich blue melange Harris Tweed fabric really caught my eye. Featuring three exterior patch pockets, a fly front and unique three-piece back, the simple style is a great pick for fall.

Weekend Listening: Kyle Bobby Dunn and the Infinite Sadness

Words

Kyle Bobby Dunn is steadily releasing huge, enveloping works of excellently crafted guitar-based ambient-drone music. His latest, Kyle Bobby Dunn and the Infinite Sadness, follows in the footsteps of a pair of previous records for the Low Point label. These stretch over two discs comprising roughly 120 minutes of slowly unfurling clouds of sustained tones akin to the sound of some new classical state of nirvana. There is an ever-present sense of humour in all of Dunn’s titling, but everything I have listened to from his discography is the closest thing to serious, blissed-out dream music I’ve ever heard. This record – which can be sampled from the Students of Decay label – is a must for anyone approaching his extensive catalog for the first time and looking for a large offering of splendid transcendental ambient music.

Business of Fashion Interview: Simon Foxton

"I can think of a few editorial shoots that were less successful. But, saying that, that’s why I’ve always worked with i-D. They allow people to fail. I think failing is a very important part of the creative process; if you don’t try something then you’re not going to learn anything. If everything is immaculate then what’s the point?"
