01. Magnum Marina Magnum 70′

Speedboat racer Don Aronow launched Magnum Marine in Miami in 1966 and reshaped the high-performance yacht landscape with the then-unique deep-V hull design. Used by the U.S. Coast Guard and marine government agencies around the world—as well as their seafaring targets—Magnum boats, which are entirely built and assembled in the U.S., continue to impress aficionados worldwide with breakthroughs in speed, technology and comfort. One of the latest models, the Magnum 70’, which accommodates three double cabins, crew quarters, a galley and a salon, reaches top speeds of up to 67 mph while using less fuel and producing less noise and pollution than its predecessors.

04. Lucchese Bootmaker Evan

An example of the American Dream, luxury bootmaker Lucchese was founded in San Antonio, Texas, in 1883 by Sicilian immigrants, and the brand became a favorite of celebrities and presidents. The company’s appeal stems from the old-world leather craftsmanship imported by the Lucchese brothers, whose father was a shoemaker. To this day, every detail of its shoes, like these chukkas from its spring collection (shown in tan royal calf), is created by hand.
