Best for the anti-square: That’s Fidelio, with heavy emphasis on the “O“: the Philips Fidelio SoundRing is shaped like a doughnut (no complaints here) and built with design-lovers in mind. The SoundRing’s missing middle is a “sound pipe”, used to channel bass notes to nearby ears. Its rechargeable battery provides three hours of AirPlay listening and six hours of music via devices plugged into the auxiliary port. Aside from being the least expensive in this group, the free Fidelio app connects to over 7,000 free internet radio stations and allows users to integrate social media and set custom song alarms.

Following a successful legal battle with Nike to continue the production of its proprietary adizero Primeknit model, adidas presents a look at some new colorways dropping in 2013. An innovation that’s been three years in the making, the Primeknit offers a one-piece upper engineered from knitted yarn for superior comfort, flexibility, and an open mesh exterior for advanced breathability. Within the forthcoming range of drops are color combinations both vibrant and current, while those with a bit more classical sensibilities will have solid-colored renditions to choose from. Unfortunately these will be releasing in very limited quantities, just 2,000 pairs of each colorway will be produced and sold this spring at adidas.com and select retail stores globally.

In celebration of 2013 as the Year of the Snake on the Chinese lunar calendar, the Jordan Brand will introduce YOTS versions of the MELO M9 and Air Jordan 1 High. Drawing inspirational cues from a snake’s sixth sense-like ability to detect body temperature and environmental changes in its prey, the exteriors of the sneakers have rich colors and materials – with the Air Jordan 1 High YOTS using a gradient outsole and upper featuring both suede and patent leather with distinct colors to symbolize the effects of temperature change. Both shoes share rich color palettes that include blacken blue/bright citrus/hyper red/raspberry red/deep royal blue and volt and will retail as a cohesive pack for $280 USD.

It's only a concept, but my, what a concept it is. The Lamborghini Sesto Concept ($TBA) is setting a new bar for lightweight supercars, thanks to advanced carbon fiber technology construction that gives it a curb weight of just over 2,200 lbs. — and that's including its V10 engine and permanent all-wheel drive. And while the V10 outputs "only" 570 hp, that's still good enough for a 1.75 kg per hp power-to-weight ratio and an insane 0-62 mph time of just 2.5 seconds. If you're wanting to get your hands on one, you'd best wish for A.) Lamborghini to make it and B.) some sort of financial windfall, because this thing isn't gonna come cheap.
