Columbia’s Star Wars collab is officially live. The company’s new Skywalker Pilot Collection features a wide range of gear in astronaut-orange, white and burnt umber. Fans can find limited-edition T-shirts, crossbody bags and jackets; but the standout piece is probably the funky Skywalker Pilot Ski Suit. Originally inspired by Luke Skywalker’s flight suit, the new piece is made with a waterproof Omni-Tech material and lined with reflective Omni-Heat infinity for added warmth. Plus, as an added bonus, the ski suit features fan-favorite details like T-65 X-wing Starfighter and R2-D2 blueprint graphics.

Check Out This Camp-Ready Cowboy Wok
Barebones
The Cowboy Wok ($140) is a 15-inch carbon steel wok that can be used to cook over a fire or gas cooktop. It’s made with a low-carbon rolled steel to ensure even heat distribution and is designed to heat up quickly and stay hot. Over time, it will develop its own natural, non-stick coating, and the careful hand-blued finish can resist rust (and turn black) over time.
Thom Browne joined the Baccarat team to create a small collection of crystal glasses, coupes and tumblers. Sold in sets of two, the pieces retail for $330 – $890. To create them, Browne took a handful of Baccarat’s signature pieces — including the ‘Yacht Glass’ first released in 1952 — and edited them, up or down, to reflect his own signature style.
Take all the stress out of last-minute holiday parties, secret Santa plans or interactions with your neighbors by keeping this compact little gift on-hand for whenever the moment strikes. The Cast Iron Garlic Roaster ($25) is a certified crowd-pleaser, allowing the user to quickly transform a normal head of garlic into a buttery, spreadable treat. To use, simply slice the crown off the bulb, drizzle it with oil, pop it in the pan and roast; it’s that easy.
The James Brand’s 2023 Throwflake ($39) is one part ornament, one part shuriken (AKA ninja star). It’s made with one ounce of powder-coated white steel and hung on a Santa Claus red paracord. This year’s release is the brand’s fifth version of the iconic ornament, so make sure to snag it while you can.
Now available in three colorways, the TYPE 1° Round ($19,177) has managed to further cement Ressence’s effort to create smooth, rounded timepieces that feature revolving discs instead of hands. Now, its newest colorway includes three discs in green, yellow and red (plus the minute track in blue) across the watch’s white dial. Powered by 40 jewels, 27 gears and the ETA 2892 base caliber; this is an interesting watch for savvy collectors.
