Proper Picks – June 2023

Urbanears Juno Noise Cancelling Headphones
This being a period of potentially prolonged travel necessitates items to help pass the time. Said items must also be compact, easy to use and well-made. In other words, if you’re off on your holidays, you need some new things to jam into your ears to play music with. Urbanears specialise in this sort of thing and they’ll not break your budget either. Up to 26 hours of playing time are possible on their Juno model and the style depicted above comes in the raw recycled state, meaning they’re good for the planet as well as your ears.

As the owner of a couple of these already, it irks me that Patagonia have once again created a must-have colourway in a bag that has given me so much joy. Stop doing nice things, Patagonia!

La Sportiva Mutant Women’s Trail Shoes
How does something so busily designed still look so nice? Not sure tbh. Nice colours, maybe? This female shoe is a real trail shoe that also happens to look nice. Buy it for your significant other, if it’s a ‘she’, obvs.
