We’re just not ready to make the leap into five-toed footwear. You can sit there and tell us the positives, and we’ll keep coming back with the negatives: They look ridiculous. For our lightweight footwear, we’ll turn to the new Nike Free 3.0’s. Launching on January 1, 2013, the new version of the Nike trainers clock in at a measly 9 ounces. It’s not just that they’re like duct taping a couple of feathers to your feet, they also happen to hug the middle of your foot while keeping everything comfortable for some hardcore training. Even if your idea of working out is lifting a heavy beer stein, they just look good too.

Huckberry’s Essential Holiday Gift Guide
Unzip your coat and have some mulled wine on the house—you’ve arrived at your final gifting destination: The Holiday Gift Guide. It’s like your friendly neighborhood one-stop holiday shop, except instead of balsa wood ornaments, ours is packed with thoughtful gifts for everyone on your list. Future heirlooms, small-but-significant stocking stuffers, and gear for getting out there (or staying in)—are all right here. There’s no music playing in the background though, so you’ll just have to hum Bing Crosby while you click around instead.
