Canali 's Chalet capsule collection is essentially a dream wardrobe for the chalet-bound folk - the ones who prefer the slowness of the indoors over the adrenaline of the slopes. It evokes the intimacy of a mountain retreat, a space of conviviality where afternoons are filled with reading by the fire and evenings with wine in elegant glassware. Each piece is designed to envelop, conjuring a tactile luxury that feels as indulgent as it is stylish.

Handcrafted in Cuneo, Italy, the Grandfondo blends comfort, performance, and timeless design. Each frame is hand-painted, and every detail is tuned for riders who see endurance as an art form, not a punishment.

Gucci first put a horsebit - the metal mullen that chomps into a horse's mouth to allow the rider to control its direction - on a soft leather loafer in 1953. It was, by then, a non-essential bit of tack, a nod to an equestrian tradition in leather making that allied the brand with European aristocracy, even if everyone was driving cars by then.

The new Cortina gravel bike blends classic looks with modern construction using 3D-printed titanium lugs, Columbus titanium tubes, and carbon tubes, optimizing for gravel riding.
