New-Stuff Alert: Susan Alexandra Crocs and a Mini Nugget

Photo-Illustration: The Strategist; Photos: Retailers

A few highlights from our regular rundown of new stuff that came out this week: a Susan Alexandra x Crocs collection (which includes some particularly delightful Jibbitz — like a tiny bistro set, which comes with a table, two chairs, and a potted plant), upcycled bathrobes from Quiet Town, and shoppy-shop Big Night has released some limited-edition linens.

When it comes to the hot toys of the year, right around now, pre–Black Friday craziness, is the best time to buy them. To that end our writer Liza Corsillo has compiled her guide to the best toys to get — before they sell out. Corsillo, who goes to all the toy fairs, and monitors all the new releases, foresees that this Moana American Girl Doll, mystery Hatchimals, and a goat named Daisy who farts, are what the kids are going to be particularly enthused about.

Some more gifts: Jordan McMahon compiled the best tech to gift this year like this Gameboy Advance SP–looking device that comes pre-loaded with tons of games and a pocket-friendly e-reader; and here are some under-$50 gifts from Indigenous-owned brands.
