Filson Original in Camo

Read More

Filson just released an old bag in a new color way. It’s the traditional briefcase in a sort of Wes Anderson style camouflage and I totally dig it. These are the types of bags you buy once… and then use it off and on for the rest of your life. In fact, I still own and use a Filson bag that my dad bought in the 1970s…

The Astronaut Knife

What the hell? Who else knew that Apollo astronauts went to the moon armed with a huge damned blade?!? Certainly not me… And Case is reproducing it?

Triwa SUB Ocean

Read More

I’m not much of a hippie… But, I am a guy that appreciates folks that stick up for what they believe in. Instead of hugging trees, Triwa stands up and says shit like, “Stop messing with our oceans or we will kick your teeth out.”

I dig that… and I dig this watch.

Timex + James Brand

Read More

You can always tell when someone that isn’t passionate about watches does a collaboration with a watch company. They typically start with some sort of a homage case, add some modern flair, and then finish it all off with a god damned date window.

Awe well… Details here.

Amazon Astro

Read More

Like these people didn’t have enough access to your life through your Digital activity… Amazon has finally released the Astro – a household robot designed for home monitoring. Basically, it’s one of those connected Ring cameras capable of moving around your pad and identifying shit that doesn’t belong.

Priced at $1,000… This thing has the potential to cost you A LOT more.

Often overlooked in EDC, but really handy to have on you often is a set of tweezers… And Civivi does it best. Price isn’t half bad either.

Pioneer Matter Bifold

Read More

I promised an update on my Pioneer purchase a few months back and here I am… I’ve been using the Matter bifold for 6-months now and have come to the conclusion that it’s the best wallet I’ve ever used. A few reasons:

  1. The 10XD material is very light, very thin, and feels as though it wouldn’t last longer than a couple of days in your pocket. In reality, my wallet still looks as good as it did the day I got it. This shit wears well.
  2. The size and organization is perfect. I’m a front pocket guy, so my wallets have to be small. This one is and has just enough organization to ensure it stays that way.
  3. Along those same lines, the design is perfect. There isn’t a single slot that is hard to get too and all of Pioneer’s design decisions work well together.

The only real question left is long-term durability. I’ll keep ya updated.

Watches & Goodwood

Read More

Something about mixing race cars and fancy clothes pisses me off. I think it might be that while the mechanics are wearing scrubs, the elite are choking on ties for vanity and appearance. Form vs function. It just rubs me weird.

BUT, I secretly dig this little number that Hodinkee did on the watches of Goodwood.
