Updated daily, the Buy section is a deep directory of stuff we love. From this collection we organize Gift Guides for the holiday season and special occasions all year long.
To kick off Magic Hour Photo Club, Booooooom’s forthcoming series of photography projects, they’ve launched with a 100% cotton snapback hat. The limited edition item features a woven label, small camouflage tag, and front and side embroidery. For photographers who dream of the magic hour, it’s a nice addition to one’s outfit when shooting.
Brandon Maxwell’s collaborative earrings with the Lunch at the Ritz jewelry brand by Zander Elliott shift—legs, tails, head and more—as the wearer moves. There’s a ferocious charm to the whole range, sold exclusive on Maxwell’s site, but the Panther and its ready-to-pounce look really captivates. The pieces will only be produced until 20 November 2017—and each is handmade in the US, meaning no two are exactly the same.
A high-capacity universal battery, Mophie’s latest Powerstation comes with both a USB-C output port and an additional USB-A output port. As far as power goes, there’s enough here to charge a MacBook entirely, with some energy left over for other devices. The USB-PD tech within also allows for rapid charging, moving up to 30 watts at a time. Never one to ignore visual design, the Mophie team wrapped the device in a premium fabric. It’s also 25% smaller than a standard portable charger with equivalent power.
Ranch Boss can burn whole logs, seat large numbers of people, and feed throngs. Its size gives tremendous versatility for many kinds of cooking, from rotisserie to Dutch oven, and from grilling to the serving as the world’s most impressive soup pot. While it is often the central point of resort and lodge settings it is often found on home patios as a statement of quality and the center of outdoor family life.With a 6’4″ tripod height, a vast basin and even larger diameter, Cowboy Cauldron’s Ranch Boss can hold a number of full logs and create a perimeter large enough for a whole family to sit around and enjoy. This is an outdoor tool for grilling on, cooking in or simply for taking in warmth while outside. Each cauldron has been crafted from solid, seamless, high-tensile plate steel—and while that alludes to its functionality and durability, it’s also a beast of simple beauty.
Our Lady of Guadalupe has appeared everywhere from prayer candles to skate decks. Now, artist and professional skateboarder Jason Jessee has lent his rendition to Nixon watches for a new iteration of their 37mm Time Teller wristwatch. The art pops against the gold dial, case and five-link bracelet. Altogether it’s a fun but respectful play on the icon.
The stack of cookbooks gathering dust on the counter indicates that they’re more food porn-turned-coffee-table-read than actually useful come dinnertime. Samin Nosrat’s photography-free, anti-recipe cookbook “Salt Fat Acid Heat” is a guide to really understanding the science of cooking—like how to use salt better (the right amount, the right time, the right form), or just how balancing a couple drops of vinegar can be to soup. Offering less instruction and more intuition, the illustrated manual might be the final addition ever to your cookbook collection.
From Nau’s recent fall 2017 collection, the Boiled Wool Jacket builds a refined, tailored aesthetic from a rugged, hearty fabric. A true fall-to-winter coat, the Tirol-style 100% boiled wool piece effectively combats changing weather. Nuances like the raw-edged seams, slender fit and fabric stand collar make it unlike any other jacket out there. It’s a handsome, effective piece of outerwear.
From Clarks’ brand new Privo collection—blending a minimal aesthetic with their ever-innovative engineering—comes the new Privo Slope. These are everyday-worthy low boots that can safely tackle winter: weatherproof, waterproof and featuring an insulated heat-retaining lining. The design aesthetic draws upon an alpine hiker silhouette—and with a comfortable EVA midsole and removable OrthoLite footbed, it’s light enough to trek through the worst of it.
The Ed Banger Records team chose their favorite AIAIAI headphones, the TMA-2, which have been upgraded with a new reinforced PU headband for the collaborative release. The headband comes complete with a thick foam padding for more comfortable wear during long sessions. Delivering plenty of bass and clear sound, these headphones also come with two cables and a special edition Ed Banger carrying pouch to seal the deal.
Designed by the team at Behance and based on the Action Method (which is, in essence, breaking down projects into their primary components), the Action Book is more than a typical notepad. Sections exist on each page for dates, times and notes, but there are also defined areas to write down your action steps and even items on the back burner. Printed on 80lb via vellum cool white, the spiral bound notebook has 50 pages to help users tackle their future projects.
Marijuana isn’t for everybody, but for those enthusiasts who feel loud and proud, this Mister Green Life T-shirt makes it clear. Printed in all-caps on premium ring-spun cotton, the word leaves nothing to chance and has a distinct retro vibe. The super-soft T-shirt is available from small to extra-large and is unisex.
With a prominent leather tongue, tonal rubberized appliqués embossed at the heel, and splashes of color, these black mid-top Primeknit sneakers by adidas Originals and Alexander Wang are the perfect balance of subtle and loud. Their elasticized sock-style ankle offers plenty of comfort, and of course they have great support for stomping around.
Certainly better than plastic, and with a more nostalgic warmth than metal, this wooden coffee scoop is available in walnut or maple. It can be personalized on the underside of the bowl or on the handle, to elevate a morning coffee routine. Holding a tablespoon of coffee, each scoop also comes with a hot pink leather strap to hang it up.
With everything needed to start a matcha obsession, Ippodo’s matcha tea kit includes all items required for regular and consistent matcha-making. There’s a strainer, whisk, bamboo ladle, whisk stand and (of course) ceremonial-grade matcha, but the kit’s booklet might be the most important item as it offers guidance through the matcha preparation ritual.
Less formal, lighter and cooler (temperature-wise) than “hotel style” plush robes, this 100% Turkish cotton robe dries the body beautifully. Thanks to its woven waffle texture, it also feels like being wrapped up in a cloud. Parachute understands how hard it is to keep things white—especially if you’re a coffee drinker—and offers two different non-white colorways: tan or grey.
To honor the most important date of your life thus far—or one you deem truly worth commemorating—this ultra-slim Thomas Letourneaux-designed wristwatch features a customizable dial that displays the position of our solar system’s eight planets on the selected date. Custom-made, this piece takes around 14 days to complete. A stainless steel dial and case complement the leather strap nicely, though a Milanese strap is also presented as an option. This is also a MoMA Store exclusive.
