Last year, we made a decision to shift our focus as a business and prioritise the future of the planet while continuing to bring you long-lasting style with craft in its DNA. In addition to announcing Our Pledge and the Craftsmanship Code, we launched Small World, a capsule collection that champions artisans from around the world who approach their designs with care and purpose, honour traditional techniques or invest in clever innovations, and put their communities, their environment and their responsibility towards both first.

The second instalment of our meticulously curated, ultra-exclusive, small-batch brands from around the world

Ah, summer. Season of shorts, shades and sandals. The sun is out, but unfortunately, so are feet. We say unfortunately because, after overwintering in boots and trainers, most men’s feet now look gnarled, battered and more cave troll than respectable human. There’s only once place you want to see embarrassing foot faults this summer – and that’s at Wimbledon. So, before you slip into those Birkies, slides or flip-flops, take these basic steps to ensure your plates always look on point.

The sun’s out, but so are your feet. Get them into sandal-ready shape with our handy footcare guide

CELINE HOMME’s neo-rave Cosmic Cruiser collection was introduced to the world of fashion last year via a freestyle motocross stunt show. Replete with shirtless riders, the spectacle was filmed by drones on the Archipel des Embiez in the south of France, not far from where the brand’s creative director, Mr Hedi Slimane, lives in St Tropez. All of this can invite us to forget that the eight items we have collated here are just clothes. In a post-lockdown world, whether we’re going on holiday again or hitting a club once more, these wild and colourful pieces are more than just insulation. They remind us that it’s time to let loose and have fun again. A new summer of love? Here are eight ways to find romantic hedonism.

We may not be known as a serious, political outfit, but you cannot accuse MR PORTER of avoiding the big issues. Previously in our debate feature section, we have tackled such thorny topics as: should you go sockless? How should you wear belt bags? Baths or showers? Heavy stuff. Continuing this theme, we now turn our attention to sandals, specifically when and where it is OK to wear them. Some say the office is fair game; others suggest only in sight of water. We asked our Content Director, Mr Rob Nowill, and Mr P. footwear design manager Ms Maud O’Keefe [spelling?] to battle it out. We’ll leave you to decide who will be on the right side of history.

Can you wear sandals to the office? If not, why not? And if so, how?

“The term ASMR was coined about a decade ago, but ASMR itself is much older,” says curator Mr James Taylor-Foster. “It taps in to our sincere human need for softness and closeness and gentleness and security. And what ASMR is telling us, I think, right now – the fact that it even exists – is that something is missing. It’s filling a gap. And it’s interesting to think what that gap might be.”

A landmark new exhibition in London explores how ASMR has evolved from a niche, internet subculture to a legitimate wellness practice used by many to self-medicate

You will have noticed that watches, recently, have become bolder and more expressive than they have been for decades. It’s great to see so much diversity and character on our wrists, but what about when we take them off? Exciting watches need storage to match. Your travel case, watch roll or winder doesn’t have to be plain, especially when what’s inside it certainly isn’t. Here are five storage options for the exuberant collector.

The latest watch winders, travel rolls, cases and nightstand holders prove that where you keep your watch can have as much character as the timepiece itself

If, like MR PORTER, you live in the northern hemisphere, you’re probably ready to put the grey days of winter behind you and salute the arrival of warmer weather. Summer is, ironically, both the season when we wear the fewest clothes and the one that presents the most problems in terms of what to wear. Sandals or no sandals? How short should shorts be? And so on, which is why we’ve tried to keep our checklist concise this year.

A quick run-through of everything you need to make a splash in the coming months. Read more in The Journal

In 2022, life has a way of keeping our heads down, our heart rates high, and for many of us, we forge ahead with little to no scope for reflection. Meditation and silent retreats aside, despite providing time away from work, vacations do not always give us an opportunity to zoom out and truly take stock. With that in mind, let us suggest the perspective-shifting headspin of an endless sandscape. All empty space, open sky and elysian aura – here are seven of the most impressive (in our opinion) dune-backed stays out there.

This year, our Small World capsule collection includes fine jewellery. And why wouldn’t it?

Our Small World capsule collection includes fine jewellery for the first time. Here are four names to add to your Wish List
