Nixon Watches

So what do Bob Burnquist, Tony Hawk and Rick McCrank have in common?

Surely I must be on about their contribution to the modern art known as skateboarding?
Well, yeah, but I’m trying to make a dramatic point about their association with Nixon, and no, not the President before you ask.



Nixon are at the height of fashion at the moment, what with timepieces being an important accessory for men, and with their varied styles of watch, there’s a style to suit any outfit, from their elite ‘The Automatic’ for formal wear, to ‘The Dork’ for the retro, preppy look.

With unique names associated with each models unique style, they will ultimately grab people’s attention, wherever you go, which is why Nixon is the brand of choice for men that want to be noticed.

With regards to the host of extreme sports stars that lend their name to Nixon, this is testament to their practicality, as they are so well constructed that you can wear them while attempting a double kick-flip, and not have to worry about it. This is what adds to Nixon’s attraction, the fact that when you buy one, you won’t have to replace it for quite a while.

Their style is so timeless, excuse the pun, it won’t go out of style, if at all, for quite some time, and coupled with their practicality and affordability, you should really see the purchase of a Nixon as a venture into the world of quality timepieces, which would be a welcome addition to the wardrobe of any man.

Nixon Watches are available directly from Nixon, or through online retailers such as BlackLeaf, Urban Chaos and Psyche.

Skiwear: Looking as Cool as Ice

Snow sports enthusiasts have never had it better. Not only can you technically look good heading down the slope these days, but you can also look stylish while doing it.

More and more companies such as Burton, Spyder, and Quiksilver are hiring young, hip designers to spice up their collections, as well as adding technology that will keep you dryer and warmer at the same time.

Burton Cargo Pant

Burton are essentially a snowboard make, but with cutting edge design like this, more and more skiers are taking to this type of clothing to make them look ultra-cool.
They come in a variety of lengths and fits to ensure you’re comfortable as well as looking stylish.
Fully taped seems and polyester mesh keep you protected from the elements, and with lots of pocket space you’ll be hard pressed to find a better cargo pant.

Spyder Scorpion Pant

A popular brand with skiers, Spyder are known for their technical excellence and modern cut.
We’ll all agree that a normal pair of suspender styled ski pants can make you look like a bad impression of ‘Eddie the Eagle’, so fortunately Spyder have come to the rescue.
With ultra-slim constructed, Thinsulate lined, water-proof pants they’ll soon have you adding the ‘rock and roll’ to skiing and après-ski.

Quicksilver Antarctica

Quiksilver’s Antarctica range has been really influenced by Polar expeditions.

Quiksilver have constructed the Antarctica jacket using their own Quiktech 5000 fabric which has had its critical seams taped, for first class waterproof performance and breathability, and with a colour scheme this cool, anyone can look as cool as ice.

Salomon Rocket Twin CP Glove

With ClimaPRO and Thermolite technology encased within these gloves, you can be sure they’ll fit your needs like a glove. Excuse the pun.
As well as being suitable for any weather conditions the slopes will throw at you, Saloman have designed them to fit in with the trendy styling seen on the sloped masses.

Becoming as good as Shaun White takes years of practice and an Olympic Gold Medal, but looking as good as him only takes a few minutes of online shopping, and with the choices above you’ll be staying warm, and looking chic at the same time.
