Chris Hemsworth is thinking about board shorts and sunscreen. He’s not on the road because he’s at home in Australia, where he’s preparing for his next role as Thor. He’s been keeping busy when he’s not getting his Norse god swole on, sharing his sunny surroundings with the world via wonderfully silly meditation videos, assisting with the promotion of Hugo Boss’s new fragrance, and still receiving the rewards of his wife’s impeccable taste.
You may recall that the last time we chatted with Hemsworth, he admitted to slathering his wife’s La Mer cream on a sunburn while blissfully unaware of its high price tag. Having learned from his mistake, he now appreciates the candles and aromatic oils she burns throughout the house.
He’s also savoring the summer in the southern hemisphere right now. From training sneakers to post-surf sweats, he shares a handful of his must-haves below. Perhaps they’ll be handy where you are as well. At the very least, Hemsworth’s basics serve as a reminder that the sun will return to this area as well. Someday.
Goose released more scuffed sneakers after their success with celebs and sneakerheads, including Hemsworth’s beaten-up Mid Stars, which were a sellout hit. It wasn’t long before other brands realized there was a market for ugly sneakers, and they began to move away from the early 2000s’ minimalist designs.
Balenciaga released the bulbous Triple S shoes, dirty Maison Margiela and Gucci kicks were all over the place, and A-Cold-Wall* and Nike collaborated on footwear that aged considerably with wear.
