Men’s Corner
Descendant of Thieves
Has launched swimwear! The New York City-based menswear brand has debuted a selection of swim trunks. Here more about the collection, from the brand.
“We broke the rules by ignoring the expected swimwear fabrication and developed our own unique performance stretch version. It is designed to be extraordinarily versatile and multi-purpose.”
Descendant of Thieves continued, “Whether you’re taking a swim, running to break a sweat, or by the poolside sipping back on a drink, this is the one single item for all. It’s sort of a Surf & Turf thing. No costume change needed.”

Michele Scarponi
Sad news coming out of the cycling world with the sudden passing, this morning, of Astana Pro Team pro-cyclist Michele Scarponi.
Here’s the official statement from Astana.
“Michele died in the morning while he was training.
This is a tragedy too big to be written.
Our athlete, Michele Scarponi, died this morning while he was training on his bike close to his home in Filottrano. Michele had been hit by a van on a crossroad.
Born in September 25, 1979, he left a wife and two kids.
Michele ended 4th in the Tour of Alps yesterday afternoon in Trento. Then he went home in Filottrano (Ancona) by car with his masseur and was home in the evening to his family.
This morning Michele went out on his bike for an early morning training and there the tragedy happened.
We left a great champion and a special guy, always smiling in every situation, he was a real milestone and a landmark for everyone in the Astana Pro Team.
The Astana Pro Team clings to the Michele family in this incredibly painful moment of sorrow and mourning.”
And, in honor of Michele, our featured image is black. xx
