Casio is back flexing its engineering dominance with the MRG-B2100, the latest heavyweight to join the G-SHOCK MR-G squad. This time, they’re serving up a full-metal beast draped in a mesmerizing “Blue Ink” dial—because luxury and toughness aren’t mutually exclusive.

Let’s talk construction. The bezel? Not just metal—27 meticulously crafted pieces of COBARION, a material four times harder than stainless steel, polished to a mirror finish using Zaratsu techniques. Blue IP accents? Of course. The case, back, buttons, and crown? Forged from lightweight yet unbreakable Ti64 titanium, making sure this watch feels premium without weighing you down.

But the real star? That “Blue Ink” dial, a nod to traditional Japanese kumiko latticework. It’s not just about looks—it’s functional, allowing light to pass through and juice up the solar module beneath.

On the tech side, the MRG-B2100 isn’t just a pretty face. It’s packing:

• Bluetooth connectivity for seamless timekeeping
• LED illumination for maximum visibility
• Automatic hand position correction because precision is non-negotiable
• Radio wave reception for next-level accuracy
• Power-saving mode that stretches battery life to 18 hours

Dropping in Japan this month, the MRG-B2100R-2AJR will be available via G-SHOCK’s webstore for ¥550,000 JPY (around $3,524 USD). Tough, stylish, and built different—just how MR-G likes it.

adidas TERREX is back at it again, flipping the script on what hiking footwear can be with the all-new Skychaser GORE-TEX. This isn’t just another trail shoe—it’s a statement. A meeting point between innovation and legacy, blending the best of adidas’ outdoor heritage with next-level tech for those who take their adventures seriously.

Designed with insights straight from mountain guides in the Alps, the Skychaser is built to handle whatever Mother Nature throws your way. It channels the DNA of classic adidas hiking models but pushes things forward with trail-tested features that cater to the modern explorer.

Let’s talk specs: the LIGHTSTRIKE midsole keeps things cushy for all-day comfort, while the GORE-TEX upper locks out the elements so your feet stay dry no matter the forecast. A molded toe cap means stray rocks and roots won’t ruin your flow, and the stability plate gives you that locked-in feel on uneven terrain. But the real game-changer? The reformulated Continental™ outsole with 5mm lugs for serious grip in all conditions—because slipping on a trail is not the move.

And of course, adidas isn’t skimping on style. The Skychaser GORE-TEX drops in multiple colorways, including the earthy “Olive Strata/Silent Green” and the bold “Quiet Crimson/Preloved Fig.” As Carla Murphy, SVP/Global GM of adidas TERREX, puts it: this silhouette isn’t just about performance—it’s about merging old-school aesthetics with new-school functionality, inspiring a new generation of outdoor enthusiasts to step outside and embrace the journey in style.
