Moving as you do and feeling just like a second skin: the new designs in the SS21 collection have been styled with both contemporary and classic looks in mind to do just that. In line with the brand’s ethos to protect the environment, SS21 embodies the spirit and vibrancy of this natural habitat, reflecting linear and tropical patterns and tonal colours of trees, plants and bright-coloured flowers.
See below, detailing the BRAND NEW S/S 21 collection & 3RD ROCK’s sustainable practices – including their use of recycled and up-cycled fabrics alongside soft organic cotton.
FROM ROCK TO ROAD, CAT COW TO COFFEE:
STEP INTO SUMMER WITH 3RD ROCK’S MOST INNOVATIVE
ACTIVEWEAR COLLECTION YET
New Spring / Summer ‘21 collection pairs freedom to move with sustainability – inspired by forests and made with recycled and up-cycled fabrics alongside soft organic cotton
Jessica Mor, the designer and pattern cutter behind 3RD ROCK has taken the brand’s trademark vibrancy and understanding of the human form to new levels with a high performance, bright and playful Spring / Summer ‘21 Activewear Collection that not only works for its legacy climbers, but now for anyone in their everyday active pursuits – be it running, yoga, pilates, dance or meditation.
Whether it is in the studio, doing the school run or brunching with friends, clothes need to work equally well lounging out as working out. But while comfort is important, they also need to be tough, strong and look amazing, for whatever you’ll be doing.
A wardrobe needs to support an active life – move as you do and feel like a second skin: the new designs in this collection have been styled with both contemporary and classic looks in mind to do just that. In fact 3RD ROCK believes that garments should be so comfortable you could sleep in them.
3RD ROCK makes sustainable clothing that is tough, strong and flexible enough for climbers but has transferred this professional level of tailoring from rock to road to suit all active interests. The smarter, more innovative-cut collection allows garments to look better, feel better and most importantly, perform better whilst leaving a minimal footprint on the planet – and with the addition of all-new 4way stretch Eco-MORPH Denim, this wardrobe now works anytime, anywhere.
Conceived and designed during the time of the Australian bush fires, the new SS21 Collection takes its inspiration from the forest. In line with the brand’s ethos to protect the environment, SS21 embodies the spirit and vibrancy of this natural habitat, reflecting linear and tropical patterns and tonal colours of trees, plants and bright-coloured flowers.
THE GEAR
Key garments include leggings, shorts, tees, sports bras, playsuits, swimwear, trousers, yoga pants and denim in different colours and designs.
3RD ROCK core favourites such as the ‘soft as butter’ staple THOR and TITAN leggings and BATABOOM unisex pants remain central to the new SS21 collection.
THOR legging TITAN Ziggy legging BATABOOM pants
A first for 3RD ROCK is its move into denim using fully sustainable processes that use air instead of water to create varying levels of ‘wash’ effects. The unique 3RD ROCK EcoMORPH denim is ultra comfortable 4way stretch durable eco-denim. A new washing system uses laser and eco techniques to increase productivity, reduce water and energy usage and banish damaging emissions and waste, guaranteeing ZERO contamination.
Available in styles for men and women, there’s a cut to suit everyone – from BUTTRESS cut offs and GAIA mom-fit full lengths, to FREERIDER shorts for men and new ‘carrot cut’ FITZ jeans that can be worn with or without a turn up. Wear them working out or meeting mates, these styles truly embody the versatility of the SS21 designs.
BUTTRESS cut offs GAIA jeans FITZ jeans
For the girls…
Playful patterns and comfortable organic cotton raise the bar on everyday must-haves, like the ASTER trousers and MARY shorts that are cut to allow for maximum flexibility and comfort, whichever way you need to move.
MARY shorts ASTER trousers
New for 2021 is the REESE dungaree playsuit; comfortable and bright for ideal beachwear or chilled weekends in the garden. Made with lightweight sustainable fabric, REESE has five main pockets, with the front chest pocket being divided up for essential items to fit snugly and safely in – and in keeping with its climbing foundations, a cute carabiner clip closure adds a nice additional detail. The strap length is also adjustable with a practical slider.
REESE dungaree playsuit
Another fresh addition for this collection is TIDE – new bootay-flattering bikini bottoms. Upcycled from the end of fabric rolls, TIDE boasts Highline, 80s retro and Botangle Tropical prints, mixed with funky neons in orange, pink and yellow as well as bright and beautiful ‘Maliblue’.
With a smoothing, high cut that flatters when worn as a swimsuit – or under a wetsuit – these bottoms are quick drying, and make a perfect bikini set when paired with the EQUINOX REVERSE sports top for wild swimming, poolside or a day in the surf.
The EQUINOX REVERSE sports top also sees more colours and patterns added for this season. Made from recycled fishing nets, its high cut neckline support will cover a headstand with no embarrassment, while its seam-free, wide back straps provide ultimate comfort, smoothing out back bulges, giving a cooling air- flow and framing your back.
EQUINOX REVERSE
For the boys…
Improvements and reinforcements in the HIRO and NOVA lines see all new designs hitting the rails with HIRO trousers and shorts and the SUPERNOVA pant. Stronger than ever, they are complete with reinforced knee and bum patches and feature a banana cut to provide more room around the knees for bending and stretching when you need it. These styles also include more practical pockets, meaning your valuables – even your phone – are more secure.
HIRO trousers SUPERNOVA pants
New for 2021 are MOFO shorts – so versatile and colourful it’s tempting to buy the full set.
These shorts are made from 100% recycled polyester. They feature a bias cut crotch for endless range of movement, three pockets – including a secure elastic bound phone pocket – and an engineered elastic waistband with internal puller cord for security that keep the shorts on the hip, even with heavy things in the pockets. The MOFO shorts also double up for swimming trunks. They are quick drying so fit perfectly into an action packed lifestyle: Climb, Swim, Surf, Run… Repeat!
Don’t forget the kids…
Adult styles have also been scaled down to cater for the budding athletes of the future with MORPH t-shirts available in a plethora of colours as well as mini sizes of MOFO, HIRO and THOR bottoms that kids will simply want to live in!
MORPH T-shirts
Sustainable from day one, the new SS21 collection uses only organic cotton or recycled and up-cycled fabrics.
Jessica says, “We explored the changing style directions and consulted with 3RD ROCKERS from across the world to evolve our classic collection to be on-point with what people want in their clothing. I’ve incorporated higher waistbands, tapered legs and I am starting to introduce more androgynous styles in a unisex offering to appeal to a more diverse audience with this collection.”
The new Spring / Summer ‘21 collection is available now online. Prices start from £12.50.

Their minimalist web belts are designed to last for decades. They don’t slip, are comfortable to wear, and have easily interchangeable buckles.

Squeeze the palm lever of the wallet and the cards rise so you have easy access without having to pull and tug on them. When you don’t squeeze it, the lever locks the cards in place so they don’t fall out, even when turned completely upside down. There is also an optional finger loop for easy carrying and clipping, as well as a variety of colors to choose from.
Finally, their merino wool socks are sourced from Rocky Mountain wool. They are comfortable, breathable, and keep your feet dry. They come in short and crew-cut lengths and a variety of colors.

Stronger Than The Dark
Exploring the Intimate Relationship Between Running and Depression
By Cory Reese
ULTRAMARATHONER AND CLINICAL SOCIAL WORKER ON THE TOOLS RUNNERS HAVE TO FIGHT DEPRESSION AND HOW TO TURN TRAUMA INTO GROWTH
When Cory Reese’s depression was triggered by two difficult life experiences: the diagnosis of a chronic health condition, and a faith crisis that resulted in him leaving the Mormon church, he didn’t know how to cope. Even as a licensed clinical social worker, there was so much about depression that he never understood until experiencing it himself.
In his gripping new memoir, Stronger Than The Dark: Exploring the Intimate Relationship Between Running and Depression [JUNE 8, 2022], Reese offers compelling and vulnerable insights into the pervasive destruction of depression. Drawing on lessons learned over a decade of ultramarathon running, and his experience helping others as a social worker, Stronger Than The Dark offers a powerful new approach in the battle against depression: the willingness to embrace suffering.
In a moment of physical and mental crisis during a 314-mile race across Tennessee, he realized with clarity life’s ultimate purpose: we are here to endure, to help others turn pain into peace and be a beacon of kindness and compassion. Cory’s beautifully broken path of healing speaks to anyone lost in insecurity or despair, and gives hope that even in life’s darkest moments, we can find the light.
CORY REESE lives in southern Utah with his wife and children. He is author of the books Nowhere Near First, Into the Furnace, and Stronger Than the Dark. He is also a columnist for UltraRunning Magazine. Cory is a licensed clinical social worker, speaker, and passionate mental health advocate.
ADVANCE PRAISE:
“Cory demonstrates that there is strength in vulnerability. Anyone who has struggled with depression will be comforted by the constant message that we have nothing to be ashamed of, and that we are not alone.” – Kara Goucher, two-time Olympian, and author of Strong
“Riveting and propulsive, Cory Reese proves that you needn’t fear the darkness if you have the light inside.” – Dean Karnazes, ultramarathoner and NY Times bestselling author
“I’m a big believer that sports teach us many of the most valuable mental, physical, and spiritual lessons we can learn in life. Whether you are a runner or not, the profound lessons in this book translate to all areas of life. Stronger Than the Dark is a powerful story of overcoming adversity with grit, courage, and unflinching honesty.” – Darrin Donnelly, bestselling author of Think Like a Warrior

Stranger Than The Dark will be available everywhere books are sold on June 8, 2022.
MyTVLife Connects Birthdays, Other Life Events With Television History… Dads Army… Only Fools… Faulty Towers… Arthur Daly!!! mytvlife.tv
LAUREL SPRINGS, N.J., April 8, 2021 – For many years, TV Guide Magazine was the arbiter of all things pop culture, at least to the extent that it intersected with television. Its pages tracked such landmark events as the Beatles’ phenomenon, race relations, the moon landing, the Challenger and Columbia disasters, 9/11, and the intersection of TV and politics, along with countless celebrity deaths. Meanwhile, it simply told viewers what they could watch and when, before on-screen guides, apps, and the Internet.
Now, a new service combines that archive of the nation’s history with the meaningful moments in our own lives, whether it’s a birth, a wedding day, or other significant life event. MyTVLife, the brainchild of a life-long collector of TV Guide, tracks these noteworthy personal memories with what was happening on television, right down to the minute. The goal is to put these moments in the context of what the country was viewing, and talking about.
“I’ve always believed television – and consequently TV Guide – was a lens into recent American history, little time capsules in 7-inch by 5-inch packages,” said Gary Frisch, founder of MyTVLIfe. “It’s fun looking back through time this way, so I thought it would be great to share these glorious time capsules and the data they hold with everybody.”
The MyTVLife certificate includes the programs that aired on all three (and later four) major broadcast networks at the time of birth or other event. It also reveals what was on during prime time that evening, the top 10 shows of that TV season, and some of the notable series premieres that season, along with an image of that week’s issue cover. It’s a completely custom certificate with the individual’s name(s) and significant date.
Frisch’s collection dates from 1977 through the final digest-sized issue of TV Guide, published in October 2005, although MyTVLife covers just about all dates from April 1953, when the publication first launched. Aside from the last small-format issue, which featured multiple covers of modern celebrities recreating vintage TV Guide covers, his collection includes the last stapled issue from Oct. 11, 1980, and the first bound issue, featuring Sophia Loren, the following week.
Among his favorites?
“I went out of my way to obtain a Star Trek cover from 1967, and a Rod Serling Night Gallery cover from 1972 – amazingly, there were no Twilight Zone covers during its original run,” he said. “And I really love the gimmick covers, including an Elvis hologram cover, an Elvis cover with a CD attached, and a Beatles White Album tribute with an all-white cover, with the TV Guide logo simply embossed in the paper.”
MyTVLife certificates are available starting at $10 at www.mytvlife.tv.

A taste of a Belizean Rainforest — Copalli Rum (www.copallirum.com)
Copalli Rum is clean — made in Belize from 3 ingredients: heirloom sugar cane from the neighboring organic farm; water from the Rainforest canopy and yeast.
The Copal Tree Distillery was built to be carbon neutral. In fact, we are currently undergoing a green house gas audit to determine exactly what our footprint is (expected zero or negative). The results will be back mid June.
The Copal Tree Distillery operates under a closed system, meaning zero waste. The sugar cane is harvested, juiced, the fiber is dried and used as fuel to power the stills. After the rum is distilled, the remaining liquid and ash are used as fertilizer for the cane fields. Any wastewater from the distillery goes through a filtration system and into retention ponds. From there, it’s safe to go into the river or used to water plants and crops.
Copalli Rum comes in a white and a barrel rested expression. It is available in the US and in Europe.

Nico Marley, former NFL player and grandson of reggae legend Bob Marley, founded Lion X Wellness, a Black-owned and operated CBD and wellness line that intends to heal our communities and provide restorative wellness that sharpens the mind, strengthens the body, and fuels the soul.
Herb has always been an essential part of Nico Marley’s family history. Nico’s grandfather, Bob Marley, was an advocate for natural wellness, even before it was a globally recognized technique. “Herb is the healing of the nation,” he would say. Nico has taken his grandfather’s natural wellness theories and created a lifestyle that modernizes those philosophies. After leaving the NFL, Nico wanted to give back to his peers who play sports professionally and the individuals who rely on CBD and other natural wellness products because of its extraordinary benefits and the vital role it plays in their everyday lives.

This Father’s Day 2021 – gift your father his life story
Research from StoryTerrace shows nearly HALF of men (46%) wish they could tell their younger self to document their family’s life story
Rutger Bruining, CEO of StoryTerrace, discusses some of the life stories that define the nation on Father’s Day
With Father’s Day approaching on June 20th, thousands of people across the nation will be preparing to spend time with their fathers after a year of isolation. In light of this, many people will be wondering how they can make the day more special than ever before.
New and exclusive research from national biographer StoryTerrace reveals that nearly half of men in Britain (46%) wish they could tell their younger self to document their family’s life story, as they feel like most of it has been forgotten. With millions of men in Britain regretting not having their life story documented, StoryTerrace provides the perfect gift for Father’s Day. Clients are matched with a ghostwriter based on personality, and after a number of one-to-one sessions, your life story is turned into a beautiful book, embellished with your own images. Prices start from £1,600 and you can choose between a Senior and Premium ghostwriter.
While documenting your own life story has become a popular pastime, turning the life of a loved one into a book offers the ultimate bespoke gift. StoryTerrace have documented the life story of hundreds of father figures – one such story was commissioned by Dominic Clark’s wife, Jenn, who decided to gift him with the biography of his grandfather, Stanley.
Stanley’s story of bravery during WWII and the battle between East and West:
Stanley was an English officer in the Horse Guards who ran away to throw himself into the front lines of WWII at just 15 years old. He advanced toward the European front via Egypt, Palestine, Israel, Syria – a Desert Rat. On he went, through Italy to Germany, where he helped to liberate the camp at Belsen. It was there in Germany that he met Anneliese, swimming in the river. They became inseparable, but the Russian occupation soon divided them. Against military orders, he orchestrated Anneliese’s escape across the East-West border – twice! Stanley and Anneliese’s story proves that love is powerful enough to endure all – even being separated by war and two polarising political and social regimes. Happily, the rest is history, according to their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Against all odds and despite their separation by the Iron Curtain, they were able to build one of the most storied and incredible relationships ever documented by StoryTerrace.
Rutger Bruining, CEO and Founder of StoryTerrace, discusses the importance of sharing experiences and memories with your father:
“On Father’s Day this year, thousands of people across the nation will be preparing to visit or call their fathers and make the most of being around the ones they love. We are clearly a nation of people that have the utmost respect for our fathers – however, three in ten of us have little to no understanding of the work our fathers put in to provide for us, or what they accomplished before we were born.
When I founded StoryTerrace, I was inspired by my grandfather and his stories about his time in the War. The stories he told me faded much quicker than I expected, and I quickly regretted not documenting them earlier, for both myself to reflect on as well as for future generations in my family to learn from and enjoy. This sentiment applies to fathers across the world, and at StoryTerrace we take pleasure in ensuring that life stories are never forgotten.
We want to encourage everyone to reach out to their dads and to listen to their tales and memories. By documenting and recording the stories of your father’s life, not only can you preserve their legacy, but you can achieve a better understanding of the person that you are in the world today through who you come from. Many individuals often undermine their own life stories and experiences and do not think that they are worth documenting, which is always surprising to hear as these people always end up sharing great experiences that they have encountered throughout their lives.”
About StoryTerrace
StoryTerrace helps people to turn their life story into a book. The company takes care of the whole process – matching clients with one of their 600 professional writers, interviews, photo gathering, editing, design and printing. Books are on average 100 pages long, meaning that everyone can have their life story – or the life stories of their loved ones – documented in a professionally curated autobiography, biography, or series of memoirs.
This Father’s Day, a cool gift idea for health conscience dads is CocoaVia, a cocoa flavanol supplement.
Cocoa flavanols are the plant-based compounds found in cocoa beans which give it the “superfoods” status. Cocoa flavanols help your body naturally increase its production of nitric oxide, a super-molecule that supports cardiovascular health by allowing the arteries to relax and widen and promoting healthy blood flow throughout your body. Healthy blood flow means that vital organs, muscles and tissues get the oxygen and nutrients they need for optimal performance. Keeping arteries healthy and flexible can even support healthy blood pressure.
So this Father’s Day ditch the gift of chocolate (yes even dark chocolate) which is high in sugar and calories, and purchase CocoaVia™, a cocoa flavanol supplement with 450-750 mg of cocoa flavanols in every serving, for all those dads you love! The Heart and Brain Powder will be a great boost to a morning smoothie or cup of coffee! You can purchase CocoaViaTM directly from their website or on Amazon.

The finest Father’s Day fromage
Cheese gift boxes so gouda even 2021 can’t rain on their parade
New for Father’s Day 2021, The Cheese Geek, the modern cheesemonger, has curated a line-up of fromage fit for even the most discerning dads. The very finest British cheeses, and some European heavy weights, have been expertly partnered with some of the most delicious British beverages so that, at least one thing can be certain this year…even the most difficult of Dads to buy for, will be impressed.
The Cheese Geek’s online bespoke subscription service or one-off limited edition partner boxes, mean that if we can’t all see our Dads this year, you are safe in the knowledge that these prestigious pairings of cheese with wine, beer and gin will make his day extra special.
The Cheese Geek source directly from award winning cheese makers meaning much of what you enjoy won’t be found in a supermarket. Each box also comes with tasting notes, pairing suggestions, and scoring card, so it’s easy for dad to mark and rate his favourites and learn along the way, making next year’s Cheese Geek present even easier for you! Equally, if you are seeing Dad this Father’s day, you can have a mini cheese and, insert your preferred tipple, tasting session together.
The Freddie – another one bites the…Caerphilly?
Just like the legend himself, The Freddie box is packed full of rock n’ roll flavour combinations for the leading man in your life. Three outstanding artisan British cheeses, a hard, a soft and a blue, paired with some craft beers, a pale ale, an IPA and a porter, from the legends at Northern Monk.
No Father’s Day is complete without a new pair of socks, The Cheese Geek has worked with Swole Panda to create some custom ‘cheesy socks.’ Whether it’s a hint to dad about those cheesy feet or if he’s just a die hard cheese lover, you can add them to The Freddie as an extra gift.
The Katrina – whoa we’re walking [eating] on sunshine
The Katrina is a testament to British craftsmanship, three cheeses expertly paired with Sipsmith gins, leaving you feeling like you’re walking on sunshine. These fresher cheeses have a citrusy twist which really propels them into Spring/Summer, giving you everything you need for the ultimate low maintenance picnic in a box if the British weather holds up.
The Elton, Guess that’s why they call it the ‘Harrogate’ blues
This is the truly modern twist on a traditional cheese and fine wine hamper, The Elton is still standing as our favourite for fathers who enjoy the classic pairing. Nothing beats sitting in the summer sun enjoying a refreshing glass of vino and a slab of Harrogate Blue cheese, so we’ve provided it all plus the tasting notes so you can run your own cheese and wine night at home, al fresco or even in the park.
That’s not all, if dad is more of a cider drinker or favours the fruity lagers we’ve got a luxurious lineup:
• The Madonna – Dangerously delicious and fabulously fruity, The Madonna is a refreshing cheese and Jubel fruit lager box.
• The Dolly – If you’re feeling like a little bit of country with a little bit of sweetness sprinkled on top then The Dolly is the cheesebox for you. Three rustic British cheeses paired with three Kentish Pip ciders.
• The Florence – Cheese and wine are a staple of the summer picnic season and The Florence is the perfect way to get your cheese and wine [in a can] fix from our partners Kiss of Wine.
Little less about the pairings, and all about that cheesy conversation…
• The Elvis is a subscription box service that can be bought for three, six, nine or 12 months, with each caer-fully crafted box delivering 4-5 cheeses guaranteed to be completely different and unique.

Our story: Family-inspired, family-created and family-owned. Years ago, Sheri Eudaly gave up ironing and created a homemade spray that turned out to be a game changer – no more irons, no more hassle, and best of all…no more wrinkles!

Lusty Monk is a robust mustard for the passionate palate.
Great for snacking, marinating, and featured on many charcuterie boards. Lusty Monk is headquartered in Asheville, NC. You can find us in taprooms, restaurants, and grocery stores in Western North Carolina and beyond. You can also order directly online at lustymonk.com.
Mustards:
Original Sin: Our most popular mustard – the one everyone wants. This old-style, coarse-ground, original recipe mustard will add a kick to anything you can put on a plate.
Into Temptation: This honey mustard is AWESOME as a dip and on sandwiches. Demure at the beginning, it ends up with a serious kick at the finish.
Burn in Hell: Our chipotle mustard has a great smoky flavor and the best place for it is on protein. Chicken wings, salmon, anything on the grill.
Why did we name it Lusty Monk?
The founder was amused at a story about a strict order of medieval monks who weren’t allowed to eat mustard lest they fall prey to carnal desires. She christened all mustard-eating monks the Lusty Monks. We like to encourage our customers to Indulge, Repent, and Repeat.
