NORTIV 8 WorkNano Boots and Wide Toe Box Hiking Shoes Review: Waterproof Comfort and Surprising Quality Without the High Price

I have seen NORTIV 8 shoes on sale for a while and wanted to try them, but I thought they couldn’t possibly last long since they were so cheap. That is the misconception they are trying to fix, though. The “8” in their name stands for the eight essential traits that define their gear: traction, comfort, weather resistance, fit, durability, support, adaptability, and value. They want to make more affordable rugged footwear, and I think they are doing that very well after testing these out.

GUNNAR Tomb Raider Croft Glasses Review: Prescription Sunglasses That Finally Made Me Ditch the Clip-Ons

Eyeglasses can be such a personal thing. I’ve worn glasses all of my life, and over the years, my sunglasses have always been clip-ons. Yeah, I can go with transitions, but they darken way faster than they lighten. That bugs me. I’ve never considered prescription sunglasses because my insurance wouldn’t give me a discount, and I have progressive lenses, which can be a major financial roadblock. When I was offered the chance to review the new GUNNAR Tomb Raider Croft sunglasses, their retro 1930s field style intrigued me. Prescription? Yes. Progressives? Yes. Better than clip-ons? Let’s find out.

Americana Style All Year: Fresh Ways to Wear a American Classics

America’s 250th birthday has made 2026 a natural year to revisit Americana style, but that doesn’t mean the look has to begin and end with red, white, and blue outfits on July Fourth. In fact, some of the most enduring American style influences have very little to do with holiday dressing. Think broken-in denim, vintage graphic tees, Western boots, varsity jackets, cozy flannels, canvas bags, classic sneakers, collegiate-inspired sweatshirts, and the outdoor clothing that becomes especially appealing once the weather starts to cool.

ALLSWIFIT ActiveSolid Slip-In Athletic Shoes Review: Slip-In Comfort for Wide Feet Without the Premium Price

Let’s get this out there right now – I hate tying shoes. I’m a huge fan of slip-ons, but when I want athletic shoes, I’ve been out of luck. When Kiziks first came out, with their slip-on tech, I was excited. But I am blessed with both thick and wide feet, and Kiziks don’t play there. There are some high-priced options out there, but I’m frugal. I got an offer to test out a pair of ALLSWIFIT ActiveSolid Athletic Shoes, and they are slip-ins available in wide. Yes, please!

K-Swiss Women’s Wild Run Trail Running Shoes Review

The K-Swiss Women’s Wild Run Trail Running Shoes are designed for people who want a comfortable, capable shoe for getting outside without necessarily needing something built for technical mountain trails. Whether you are walking through a park, taking a dirt path, walking on a gravel driveway, or navigating uneven grass, roots, mud, and rocks, these shoes offer the traction and cushioning needed for everyday outdoor adventures. I tested the women’s size 10, which is my usual size, and found them comfortable right from the start. They are lightweight, stable, and nicely suited for casual trail walking and light trail running.

Flipside 5 EDC Wallet Review: A Slim Metal Wallet That Treats Cash Like It Still Exists

I’ve looked at more than a few wallet designs over the years, and most of them force you to pick a side. You either get a super-slim card carrier with almost no personality, or you get something bulkier that handles cash better but takes up too much pocket space. The Flipside 5 aims for a nicer middle ground. This EDC wallet keeps the footprint compact, adds a more premium anodized aluminum shell, and still gives you quick access to both cards and bills.

K-Swiss Hypercourt Supreme 2 Tennis Shoe Review: Great-Looking Court Shoes That Prefer Errands Over Treadmill Miles

The K-Swiss Hypercourt Supreme 2 women’s tennis shoes make a strong first impression. They have a sleek, athletic look, solid construction, and a color combination that really pops. But good looks only go so far when a shoe is supposed to handle tennis matches and treadmill miles. After taking a close look at the design and then putting in several walking sessions (sorry, I don’t play tennis), the big question became pretty simple: are these better as performance shoes or as everyday sneakers?

PollyFab Aero Pro and Airpuff One 3D-Printed Shoes Review: Futuristic Footwear That Misses a Few Steps

3D-printed products are all over the place, but 3D-printed shoes still feel a little futuristic to me. PollyFab sent over two styles for me to try: the Aero Pro and the Airpuff One. After wearing both pairs around the house, on hardwood floors, on stairs, and even on a treadmill, it became clear that these 3D-printed shoes are definitely unique. But they also come with some real limitations.

Gentle Monster Intelligent Eyewear Brings Google Gemini to Fashion-First Audio Glasses

Gentle Monster intelligent eyewear is moving from rumor-adjacent curiosity to something more concrete, with Google revealing a first design at Google I/O 2026 today. Built in partnership with Google and Samsung, the upcoming collection will start with audio glasses that combine speakers, microphones, a camera, and Google Gemini‘s voice-assisted help.

Anthony Veer Labs Apollo Hybrid Shoes Bring Sneaker Comfort to a Dress Shoe Without Losing the Plot

The Apollo Hybrid shoes from Anthony Veer Labs are built around a familiar problem: dress shoes may look polished, but they often feel like punishment once your day involves more than walking from the car to a conference room. Launching on Kickstarter today, the Apollo Hybrid aims to bring running-shoe comfort to a cleaner Oxford-style silhouette, pairing full-grain leather with energy-return foam, a carbon fiber shank, and a removable, supportive insole. It’s meant for professionals who still need to look put together, but don’t want their feet filing a complaint by midafternoon.

The $78 KANE Revive OB Turns the Humble Slide Into a Serious Recovery Shoe

Athletes tend to focus on performance. Recovery usually happens in the quieter moments between workouts, games, and everything else that fills a day. Those small transitions, like walking out of the gym, standing in line for coffee after a long run, or shuffling around the house after leg day, can determine how your body feels the next morning. KANE builds recovery shoes specifically for those moments when your feet are tired, but you’re not quite done moving. The KANE Revive OB takes the brand’s familiar recovery design and reshapes it into a casual open-back slip-on built for quick transitions.
