Educate Your Feet
In the world of socks, somewhere between your dress socks and your athletic socks, exists a weird limbo zone. I’m talking about socks that can be worn with some casual shoes and jeans, without having that now-dreaded white cotton showing (apparently the ladies notice… who knew?). This wouldn’t have bothered me in college, but now [...]
A Revolution In The Way You Buy Clothes
In a perfect world, every business deal would close, every workout would yield visible results, and everything we wore would draw men’s respect and women’s phone numbers. But all those things take time and, in a perfect world, we’d have more of that, too. Well, the folks at Trunk Club are taking us one step [...]
You Can Almost Smell the Freshly Cut Grass
All men should have something they dream about owning, even if that something is a bit imprudent or impractical. While Brian, Ben, and Eric dream of watches, sound systems, and cars respectively, I long for the day that I can convert my basement into a golf practice facility. And if you’re going to dream, why [...]

Gadget Proven. Wife Approved.
If each passing year results in an expanding arsenal of electronics then you might want to read this. Now, on the other hand, if you’re like Gear Patrol’s Ben Bowers and inflicted with gadgetphilia, with only the world’s most bleeding edge home theater sufficing, then there are probably few predesigned media solutions that fit your [...]
"Now this is a Knife"
In a recent post, my compadre Dusty touched on how every man needs a knife (or ten). I could not agree more. Try carrying one for a week, and I’d wager you won’t want to stop. Whether you’re looking for a first knife or just another knife in your quest for ten, Benchmade is a fantastic [...]
Brilliant!
“Yeah, it’s tactical, Matte black, overbuilt, and expensive.” That sums up the Inova XO3 pretty damn well. Well, all except one thing. Inova has been kind enough to skip the expensive part. Machined from a solid block of aluminum, this sucker is shockproof, crushproof, and water-resistant. It has a 5.8 watt LED which, coupled with [...]
Like Regular Water, Only More ActiVe
In case you haven’t noticed, enhanced water beverages are all the rage these days, as evidenced by their swollen selection in your corner market’s cool case. These hydration options offer a wide variety of beneficial supplements, but some come with unacceptable caloric or carb-loaded trade-offs. From that standpoint, I was glad to try out the [...]

I Love the Smell of Lighter Fluid in the Morning
Survival gear is hot these days. With the world economy bottoming out, bombs going off in posh hotels, and threat levels hovering in the orange zone, people are gearing up for the apocalypse. Military chic often surges in popularity during times like these. In the 70s (after Vietnam), preppy kids would comb the racks at [...]
