A bundle of spicy sweetness, Farm to People’s Heat Things Up kit includes everything from a mole chocolate bar to raspberry jalapeño jam. Some of the components can be consumed on their own, but many (like the hot honey and the aforementioned jam) can be used to punch up other treats (or, we suppose, eaten by the spoonful). Farm to People unites products from small-batch producers so it’s easy to feel good when your tongue is burning up. It also all comes in a reusable wooden crate.
From a high-temperature production process that renders each bowl extra-sturdy (and slightly different from one another), Miwak Junior crafts ceramic smoking bowls and pipes in their California studio. The Papa Papa Charlie iteration features a large, hollow interior with a smooth, hand-finished exterior. It’s beautiful, textured, easy-to-use and to clean.
Available in polished gold-plated steel, matte black or stainless steel, Love + Destroy’s 3D-printed one hitter is a simple, minimal and travel-happy piece. With space for 18 characters, it’s also free to customize with almost any word or name you like.
One no longer has to have a green thumb to grow their own greenery. With Cloudponics’ automated GroBox hydroponic system, which comes complete with LED light and nutrient dosing, plant growth can be overseen through an app—while the box itself does everything else. According to the brand, if done correctly the system produces eight ounces of weed in three months. There also happens to be an automated lock on the GroBox door.
Made in Portland, Oregon, this 24k gold-dipped brass piece has a double use: a roach-holder and a tamper. Minimal in its design and three inches long, it can even be worn as a pendant.
Made from 80% Mongolian cashmere, Dime MTL’s navy blue fisherman-style beanie offers comfort and warmth during the frosty months. More simple than many of the oftentimes humor-laden creations from the Canadian skate brand and crew, it’s classic and pragmatic. Price is in CAD.
Offering up to six hours of protection, Rapha’s Winter Embrocation warming body balm is made up of three organic, warming ingredients: winter green, capsicum, and vanilla. Along with those ingredients, there are essential oils, shea butter, vitamin E and beeswax—all which nourish the skin in cold, harsh climates. Soothing and protective, this lotion means your cycling doesn’t need to stop when the snow comes.
Water- and drop-proof, this Catalyst Case can keep AirPods safe across numerous types of outdoor adventure. Made from soft silicone, the case also offers easy access to the Lightning port, and even has a detachable carabiner so users can hook it up to their belt or backpack. Tested at up to one meter (3.3ft) of water, and meeting MIL-STD 810G for drops, this little case is tough.
Made for Star Wars fans of all ages, this backpack-style pencil case features a bright red and blue zipper—reminiscent of C-3PO’s wires. More importantly though, for every bag sold by STATE, a backpack full of supplies is hand-delivered to an American child in need.
Initially a limited edition piece, Search and State’s S1-A riding jersey has just been released again—but in a deeper camo colorway than before. This three-pocket cycling jersey, featuring a compartmentalized back pocket, is soft and comfortable to wear, while highly durable. The jersey is again only available in a limited edition.
Only 74 bottles of this whisky exist globally. Beyond its age and rarity (and exquisite bottling, done in a handmade crystal decanter with sterling silver adornments), the most impressive facet of this single malt Scotch happens to be its incredible flavor. Normally, at this age, the wood aging has taken over the flavor profile. Here, one is left with candied pineapple and it simply tastes great.
Designed exclusively for Moda Operandi, Alexandra Llewellyn’s luxe backgammon set is made in England from fine woods, stones and metals. Its charming safari theme features giraffes and lush trees, and a customization option grants engraving or monogramming. Complete with mother of pearl checkers, this is no ordinary board game and can certainly elevate game nights.
Traveling nowadays is impossible without plenty of tech accessories—even if you’re not traveling for work. From earbuds to power adaptors, various chargers and cords, it can all become a big tangled mess. Specifically designed to store a laptop charger, USB cords, in-ear headphones, plugs and batteries, This is Ground’s Plug Pack keeps tech essentials neat and organized. Made from 100% vegetable-tanned Italian leather, it’s available in toffee, cognac or charcoal coloways.
In an edition of just 15 units (produced per month), COTODAMA’s Lyric Speaker beautifully displays the words of some two million songs as they play. Much more than just a traditional karaoke bouncing ball screen, this handmade product is a design object as well as a functional one. Made in Japan, this WiFi-enabled speaker’s track collection will continue to grow.
Made in Italy, this blue medallion motif silk jacquard smoking jacket epitomizes ritzy indulgence. From La Perla, it’s more than just a show piece, with full lining and deep pockets. It’s all brought together with a simple sash tie. The sapphire blue stands out, but delightfully so. Price is in Pounds.
A minimal watch with exuberance, Nomos’ Metro Roségold Neomatik 39 is a variation of one of their best-selling models. Here, the case has been composed of 18-karat gold. Inside, one finds the automatic NOMOS caliber DUW 3001 movement and the NOMOS Swing System. The slender piece embodies the brand’s precise design aesthetic and time-telling accuracy.
