Stronghold Hickory Stripe Apron
This fantastic apron by Stronghold is made from organic selvage denim, hand-woven on antique looms in California, if you’re in the market for a new man-apron, you won’t find a better one.
Rocket Espresso Cup
The Rocket Espresso Cup is a great example of how a brilliant industrial designer can take a simple every day product and make it so instantly desirable that people like me would commit highway robbery to own one.
The Warp by Al Merrick Surfboards
The Warp was designed by Channel Islands team rider and 1977 World Champ Shaun Tomson, he wanted a board for the guy who wants a high performance surfboard but still wants to get the most out of the average or less than average waves they often find themselves riding.
Pull Over by Under 2 Flags
We love this uniquely designed pull over by Under 2 Flags, the top almost has a futuristic-retro feel to it and although it’s too warm in most of the Northern Hemisphere to wear at the moment, this is a good time to grab one for the marked down price of just $72 USD.
Emil Erwin
Emil Erwin is one of those companies that represents a time before we all got spoiled with cheap Chinese goods that last a season or two and then disintegrate. This bag, the Emil Erwin, is handmade to order in Nashville using leather from the Horween Tannery in Chicago, it’s stitched with Military-Spec B138 and B277 nylon thread, they say the bag’ll last a lifetime and probably more.
Deus X Makr Tool Roll
This is another winner from the designers at Deus, they’ve teamed up with MAKR CARRY GOODS to create a rustic, no nonsense tool roll that’ll accommodate all the random spanners, wrenches and sockets that you’ve bought, borrowed, found and stolen over the past few years.
Obris Morgan Branco
The Obris Morgan Branco is one of those watches that should probably cost a lot more than it does. Each watch is milled from a single block of titanium, the strap is handmade in Italy, the face is beautifully minimalist and is framed by anti-glare sapphire crystal.
Walnut Wood Wallet
This is a new one on me, wallets fashioned from a single piece of Walnut wood that can apparently be tucked into a rear pocket and sat on, with no unfortunate consequences.
