Now that the Christmas season is just a couple of weeks away, it’s time to start thinking about what to give that special guy in your life. Here’s a look at some of our favorite products this holiday season.
For the music loving guy, be sure to check out Meze Audio’s 99 Classics over-ear headphones. We love the sleek Walnut Silver pair that features walnut wood ear cups and super soft ear pads that make listening to music a relaxing and enjoyable experience. These handcrafted headphones are stylish and excel in the performance department delivering premium sound. For the guy who appreciates quality sound, the use of walnut requires air drying, an expensive procedure and the intricate process of shaping one flawless pair of earcups takes up to eight hours with sanding, lacquering and finishing lasting 45 days.
If your guy loves hard rock, the southern California based watch company, Nixon, has just what he will love this holiday season. They collaborated with Metallica and introduced three new timepieces to their collection. The everyday go-to Rubber Time Teller features numbers resembling screw heads and hands that look like nails for the band’s super fans. The more luxurious Seek & Destroy Sentry features intricate details subtle enough for everyday wear, yet heavily loaded with iconic messages like a removable leather rocker cuff with hidden song lyrics on the back and the iconic Flying V Guitar seconds hand.
For the sports fanatic like our New England Patriots loving guy, you won’t want to miss Leather Head Sports’ new handcrafted 'Old Fashioned' leather football to toss around at the holiday gathering. Made in America from supple teak (caramel color) leather and featuring tan rawhide lacing, this old school style football is available in two sizes - Pro (official size of NFL footballs) and Standard (slightly smaller than an NFL ball about 19.5 inches around the middle, easier to hold and throw). In addition to footballs, they also offer a personalized product line that includes soccer, basketball, baseballs, rugby and medicine balls with thread choices and leathers ranging from cowhide and bison to the more exotic such as python and shark, which can all be monogrammed, laser engraved or even branded with a custom branding iron.
If your guy loves gadgets as much as ours does, he will love the world’s first voice-activated wallet tracker by Ekster. The credit card sized tracker is solar-powered, runs on Chipolo and can be located with your phone, Alexa, Siri or Google Home. We love the pop-up card feature that will allow him to access his credit cards quickly and easily.
Now that winter is officially here, he is going to need to warm up and the folks at Baabuk have designed the perfect pair of slippers with him in mind. Made with sustainably sourced wool from New Zealand, the environmentally friendly slippers are made with ultra-cozy materials and feature a modern design created in Switzerland and handmade in Nepal.
If he is an avid runner, Noxgear is helping fitness buffs stay safe while out at night with their Tracer360, a brightly lit, color-changing safety vest with different colors based on visual science, allowing him to stay highly visible to cars on the road up to a mile in any direction. The illuminated and reflective vest easily fits over any jacket and can be used in all weather conditions.
For the guy who loves to cook, he will love the BELLA 12-piece wood grain pattern handle cookware set that includes a two-quart saucepan with glass lid, three-quart saucepan with glass lid, five-quart Dutch oven with glass lid, 8-inch fry pan, 10-inch fry pan, and four nylon cooking utensils. We love the non-stick coating for easy food release and super easy cleanup.
