We grew up building the wackiest LEGO creations our minds could dream up. We never got sick of LEGO even into adulthood, but we’re far more interested in real world creations using materials like cinder blocks, bricks, gas pipe and reclaimed wood. As much as we love full-scale building projects, you don’t always have to build a garage, fire pit or a garden. For all those times when you still want to play without going full-scale there’s Mini Materials. A few short years ago, a team of like-minded people decided to make tiny versions of all the most common building materials used today. Mini cinder blocks at 1:12 scale. Empress breeze blocks at 1:12 scale. Red bricks at 1:6 scale. They’re all available in the Mini Materials Ultimate Sample Kit, which also includes a set of mahogany pallet coasters. If you’re going for the full construction experience, Mini Materials even has a 1:12 scale mini pallet jack for moving all your building blocks on pallets.

When You Want a Pair of Pants Built as Tough as Your Favorite Adventure Vehicle, Proof Is the Only Option
Yes, you read that correctly, and no, we don’t invoke the Land Rover without absolute certainty our claims will be delivered on. Whether you opt for the straight or slim option, each pair of pants in the Proof Rover Collection calls upon the name of a certain all-terrain vehicle for a reason–they’re durable, comfortable and capable of handling any obstacle in their way–all while looking damn good in the process. They feel like sweats, they age like raw denim and they’re as durable as the most classic work pants. When you want to check all the boxes–with all of the color options–you need to buy Proof Rover Pants today.
