This is an activity and a new pair of socks. Or three, actually. Tie-dye socks are cool, but making your own? Even cooler. Plus, it gives you something to do during a summer where our activities are all out of whack and many of us are staying indoors. American Trench's kit comes with three pairs of their retro crew socks and enough supplies to tie dye up to 20-30 pairs of socks, or the included 3 pairs of socks and up to 5-10 larger items.

Summertime and slip-on sneakers go hand-in-hand. And GREATS has updated their popular Wooster slip-ons with new leathers and colorways for summer 2020. Our favorite? The luxe textured suede in an adaptable olive drab shade. What's more, the shoes are biodegradable, made with no virgin plastics whatsoever, and are hand-sewn in a top-rated factory that meets the highest levels of labor and environmental practices.

A simple T-shirt with a inspiring message. Every year, Tracksmith introduces a Relay collection, inspired by the style and culture of one of the brand's favorite races around the world. This year, the collection celebrates Japan's Ekiden, the 218-kilometer race from Tokyo to Hakone. The tee features the popular cheer, “Ganbatte.” A Japanese cheer meaning, “Do your best,” which embodies the commitment and tenacity required to race an Ekiden.
