Sennheiser is touting their new RS 220 ($600) Wireless headphones as playing in the same league as their Sennheiser HD 600 series wired headphones – which themselves are considered industry standard in entry to mid-level audiophile headphones. The idea that a wireless headphone such as the RS 220 could compete on this level is a high step forward in technology itself.

The conversation regarding the Sennheiser RS220 v. Sennheiser HD600 has already begun on the fanatic forums. We ourselves are desperately awaiting a review pair to compare to our own set of HD 650, just one small step up from the 600. The RS220 comes priced at around $600, just about $250-$275 more than the wired HD600. If they can indeed pull off the high end sound of their wired brothers, the RS220 may be this year’s headphone game changer.

For an excellent Sennheiser wireless headphone for half the money, consider the Sennheiser RS 180.

Slightly early, we know, for a full look, but Italy’s CAMO could not resist sharing. As we mentioned from Pitti, the new CAMO collection works around the “Casino” theme based around those all important chips.

CAMO’s “Casino Collection” asks for you to “bet on yourself.” The four main colors of casino chips influence more than 100 garments in the collection – their largest collection yet. Be it a card game inside your home, pub, or casino, CAMO reminds us that risk is important.

That’s right… unicorn leather. The new Oi Polloi Clarks Wallabees use what is known as “unicorn leather” – “the name given to elk hides by the specialist tannery tasked with producing the raw materials.” Elk and deer hides are super supple and these Clarks will be no exception. Choose from two colorways – dijon and wasabi – both of which may be some of best we have seen in 2012 so far. The green hue (wasabi) elk leather on the Wallabee is impressive.

Available in limited numbers from Oi Polloi. #need

One of the take homes from this past Pitti was a strong periodical from the minds behind Rolling Stone Italia.

Specially produced for the Italian reader during Pitti and Milan Fashion Week, Rolling Stone Italia’s Rock & Roll Style, Volume 1 is as well thought out men’s fashion and lifestyle publication that is of very high production. Photography and topics inside the publication remain current and tend to the needs of the Italian gentleman reading them. Inside readers will find everything from fashion tips, reviews, detailed schematics of Brooks Saddles and Victorinox knives.

Props should be given to the staff at Rolling Stone Italy for putting this issue together. Clearly they worked overtime in bringing this special project to the market. It looks fantastic as you can see from my well read copy above.

If Rock and Roll Style featured split Italian/English text, it would give many of the men’s magazines on the market today a serious run for their money. Did we mention that it is a free publication?

10.10 oz waxed canvas, English bridle hardwear and handles, snap closure and outer zipped pocket, this bright addition to the Tanner range is quite the looker. Being waxed it’ll age with a nice patina and that well chosen shade of orange will only get better. Did you know? “Blaze Orange, also known as Hunter Orange or color No. 12199, is one of the few colors designed for a specific function: visibility.”  Thanks Tanner Goods. Grab yours here.

A couple of wallet friendly shirt options from Duffer. The meadows shirt to our left; A light hickory fabric with a button down collar and single breast pocket, the smarter option of the two with a little less of that workwear feel. On the right, The Yarrow, chambray with two breast pockets, one little one big, with contrast white stitching and more casual feel. Two nice shirts. Simple. Find them at Duffer.

This watch from Botta was designed with classic BRAUN goods in mind. That’s probably why we like.  ”An artificial horizon divides the 24-hour ring into a day half and a night half, showing clearly how far the day has progressed.” A handy little feature allowing you to keep track of the passing hours in another country of your choice. To be honest though, we’re coveting this on a looks basis, a handsome, handsome watch. (acquire).
