To celebrate the shoe’s 30th anniversary, Air Jordan released a new edition of their iconic Air Jordan 5s called “What The.” The mismatched Red and Yellow shoe is a mashup of many non-OG colorways. These Air Jordans feature shades and materials from shoes like the Jordan 5 Tokyo, Raging Bull, Green Bean, Army Olive and Quai 54. The heels are embroidered with logos from the Shanghai and Tokyo colorways, and they come in adult and children’s sizes. Air Jordan also debuted the Air Jordan 35 “DNA” and the Air Jordan 1 High OG CO.JP "Midnight Navy” this weekend.
Expanding beyond its SchoolMaskPack face masks, Crayola partnered with Vistaprint to create a collection of colorful, reusable face masks. Masks come in three sizes: kids, adult small and adult large. There are 16 different styles to choose from, including a pineapple, streaked rainbow and a plant print. All masks have a three-dimensional chin structure, a bendable nose bridge and adjustable ear straps that provide a secure fit. Masks are washable and made from moisture-wicking fabric. They can be paired with a replaceable filter, too.
New long-lasting lip gloss from IT Cosmetics won’t fade away when you wear your face mask. The new Pillow Lips Solid Serum moisturizes thanks to an infusion of collagen, hyaluronic acid and a tri-oil complex, giving it the hydrating benefits of a balm in addition to the sheer tint and shine of a gloss. The lip gloss does not settle into fine lines or lip wrinkles, so it can be applied to dry, aging and chapped lips. It features an easy-to-use oval applicator that’s designed to fit your lips’ cupid’s bow, and it delivers a soothing, cooling sensation as it’s applied. Pillow Lips Solid Serum comes in eight shades, ranging from subtle Dusty Rose to bold Red Wine.
Victorinox Swiss Army’s new I.N.O.X. watch allows you to customize features so the piece reflects your personal style. You can choose from three materials for the case, seven colors for the dial, 15 different straps and seven colors for the removable protective bumper. All together, the watch boasts over 15,000 potential variations. Its face is made from durable scratch-resistant, anti-reflective sapphire crystal, too. The I.N.O.X. watch comes with a Swiss Army Knife in your choice of color — orange, blue, grey or green — and it can be engraved with a one-word message (think gift season).
The Weekender Wag Bag from Jinx, a pet food brand, simplifies traveling with a dog. The oversized zippered boat bag is packed with items your pup will need while spending time away from home, and it has plenty of extra room to pack toys. It comes with a bag of plant-based Pumpkin & Apple Biscuit Treats, a portable water bowl and a tennis ball for playing fetch. A 4-pound bag of protein-packed Superfood Kibble is also included, and shoppers can choose from three different flavors: Chicken, Sweet Potato & Egg, Chicken, Brown Rice & Avocado, or Salmon, Brown Rice & Sweet Potato.
Our readers love HoMedics UV sanitizers, and the brand is launching a massage pillow with deep shiatsu kneading and heating abilities to loosen muscles on your neck, back, legs and shoulders. The pillow has a reverse function that automatically massages in one direction, pauses, and then reverses on its own. The pillow features a rechargeable battery, too — which has a run time of one hour — and integrated controls, so you can easily take the pillow between rooms.
Ostrichpillow’s Heatbag can be reused an unlimited number of times, making it a great product to keep on hand for pain relief year round. The Heatbag has a removable inner core made from natural clay that can be microwaved, boiled or frozen. Its memory foam cover is lined in a soft jersey fabric, which is comfortable to lay with on the couch or in bed. The Heatbag features two sides: One is thinner and distributes targeted heat/cold to a desired area, while the other side is thick and multilayered, slowly releasing heat/cold overtime. Ostrichpillow also recently added two other self-care products to its collection: a Candle and Bamboo Compression Socks.
