With the start of a new season I always look forward to the Journal Standard lookbooks; always a nice selection of goods as well as styling and photography.

HSUPER! is a project by New York City designer and cyclist Johnny Hsu who brings his bright geometric designs to small patches and water bottles. The patches mark challenging climbs as well as some just neat designs; put one on your jersey, saddle bag, wherever! The bottles are currently only available in yellow but will soon be offered in both pink and blue versions so look out for those.

My home stereo is not quite worthy when compared to these set ups. If you’re a fan of oversized knobs, brushed aluminum, and wood cases you’re probably going to have a good time nerding out and clicking around here.
