Tokyo International Gift Show 2014

In our ongoing effort to find the latest and greatest in gear and products for you, our dear readers, we decided to take a trip to Tokyo last week to see what was up at the Tokyo International Gift Show. After a couple of days of non-stop sushi, ramen and robots, we made our way over to Tokyo Big Sight with camera in hand (and credit card in wallet) to give you a glimpse of what’s hot over in Japan. We encountered plenty of indigo bags, ultra-sharp knives, and a slew of little everyday carry pieces we wanted in our collection. Oh, and keep an eye out for a few new products for the shop we picked up on our trip.

You can’t have a fall evening without a fire. And you can’t have a fire without a Cowboy Cauldron. They’re built from solid plate steel, meaning they’ll last a lifetime or two and they come in four different sizes with elevated basins that can be adjusted to any height. We’re going with The Urbaan Cowboy® because it’s perfect for entertaining at home. With a 30″ diameter basin, it is more than large enough to have a nice fire, but still small enough to pack into a pickup truck and take it with you. Can you imagine the envy when we bust this puppy out at a tailgate or the beach? We haven’t seen a more handsome fire. You? Best of all, Cool Material readers get an exclusive deal.
