When you think about manly clothing accessories, the apron is probably not the first thing that comes to mind, but it should be. If there was any company that could make the manliest of them all, it would be Best Made Co. Each of these aprons is made of hickory stripe, 10oz twill weave 100% cotton and reinforced with ... continue reading
How many times has this happened to you? You're out back enjoying a few beers with your friends when you get the urge to fire up the grill for a couple of burgers. You leave the group to keep eye on the patties so you don't serve up a round of hockey pucks. While you're away, your friend Jerry starts putting the moves ... continue reading
For a no-frills flask that's perfect to toss in your bag when you're out camping or exploring, turn to Stanley. The classic brand has been crafting solid, well-made food and drink gear since 1913. Their latest flask is the first in the Adventure Series which is aimed at being both essential and rugged. With more grip ... continue reading
When it comes to grilling, we try to be purists. We're guilty of the occasional gas cook out of sheer convenience, but we always feel bad about it when we take the first bite out of whatever meaty concoction we just charred. Charcoal with a chimney is the best way to go, but it's also a pain. Until now. Grill Cube ... continue reading
Multi-tools are great. You can have pliers, scissors, screwdrivers, a few blades and even a ruler all in one hand whenever you need it. But what happens, MacGuyver, when you run across a bomb that needs diffusing or you need to create one to deal with some baddies. How are you gonna sever the yellow wire or crimp those ... continue reading
The invention of the modern lighter might have made matches less prevalent, but it didn't eliminate their usefulness. They're still quite useful for lighting candles, fires and cigars, and they're really good at dealing with people conducting business in the bathroom. The Quirky Strike simplifies the process of storing ... continue reading
Knowing you absolutely don't need something does not make it any easier to rationalize not buying it. The fifteenth pair of sneakers, a nuke proof phone case and these Escort Carbon Fiber Daggers all fit into that category. No man has a serious need for a carbon fiber dagger (unless you're Jack Bauer, Sam Fisher or ... continue reading
We don't often turn to Think Geek when we're looking to purchase a serious product. Yeah, they're first on our list for bacon-flavored gumballs and new ways to inject ourselves with caffeine, but for a tool that may come in more handy than anything else in our toolbox, they're not usually the first site we'll hit ... continue reading
Buffing and polishing anything is a pain in the ass. We put up with it for our cars because it gives us an excuse to stand outside in the nice weather and spend some quality time with the "lady." When it comes to shoes, seats and couches though, we'd rather not deal with it. We want the fantastically shiny end result ... continue reading
It takes balls to call your product "The Best ______ Ever." If BK put out "The Best Burger Ever," you don't think the suits at Mickey-D's wouldn't take that as the initial act of a coming fast food fight? It also, however, takes confidence and a strong belief in what you've got for sale, and those are both qualities ... continue reading
There are some things you don't think of often but end up using quite a bit. Like when we first saw Packaway Buckets, we thought, "Do we really need to spend $30 on a collapsible bucket for range balls?" and that was about all we came up with in terms of uses for the storable pail. While we could certainly load it ... continue reading
Try to use a standard black crowbar in the dark and not look like you're thief or a criminal. Impossible. Go ahead, try and pry open a crate at night and not appear to be stealing the contents. Not gonna happen. (Also, it can be hard to see.) Whether you're doing work or fighting off a hoard of The Walking ... continue reading
Cards on the table, we haven't picked up a guitar in ages. We were never very good at it to begin with, so it serves a much better purpose hanging on the wall as art than it ever would in our hands. But that's ok because we have friends and acquaintances and people we're friends with on Facebook but don't know that ... continue reading
We're tired of using the toothpick in our Swiss Army Knife as a unit of measurement. "How far down the block should we make the notch? About 2-1/2 toothpicks, right?" Not only is that not accurate, it sounds ridiculous. Our new knife of choice from Garrett Wade takes care of this issue and saves our gums from getting ... continue reading
As guys, we don't need overly decorated or visually appealing tools. We make our investments based on functionality cause we plan on beating the crap out of them. Most of the time. Sometimes we find gear that we want both for its purpose and for its aesthetics. The Skeleton Key easily falls into that category. While ... continue reading
How many of you reading this have contingency plans prepared for the zombie apocalypse? Be honest. Even before The Walking Dead (one of the few reasons we'll actually get out of bed on Sunday), Romero gave us plenty of good things to think about. Are they walking zombies or running zombies? Where's the nearest source ... continue reading
