Next Rewind is produced by a small group of writers, editors, and contributors based across New York, London, and the in-between. Some write under pen names. Listed alphabetically.


Henry Okafor

Watches & Audio

Henry covers wristwatches and listening equipment with a preference for the unfashionable middle of the market — where, he argues, most of the great twentieth-century design actually lives.

Iris Tanaka

Senior Writer, Long Plays

Iris writes the longform essays. Her beat is the strange afterlife of mass-produced objects — what they meant on arrival, what they came to mean, and what they will mean when the next thing pushes them out of the frame.

Marcus Bell

Editor-at-Large

Marcus writes about menswear and the long arc of why certain objects keep mattering. He has spent most of his working life either making or writing about shoes.
