Tommy John 360 Sport 2.0 Boxer Brief

via tommyjohn.com

While it's sometimes hard to trust a man with two first names, the folks at Tommy John have got something real with these Sport 2.0 boxer briefs. Here's 3 reasons why: 1. The longer inseam (8") means you can get through your workouts without letting people see into your looser shorts during leg lifts, handstands, and various yoga poses. 2. The utility pocket can hold your keys or phone (no bigger than iPhone 6 plus) close to your hip, so you don't have to worry about accidental contact with your boys during a run. 3. Their "Quick Draw" pouch pocket, while hilariously pointed in name, is super convenient when wearing typical gym shorts because it replaces the classic pull down then pull across choreography with a simple pull down, then down again action, which is much easier when you're in a rush.

These, along with a standard date dial are all set against a soft background of a world map, just to remind you how more there is to explore.

If you find yourself coming up with great ideas at odd times, are terrible with remembering lists, or can't seem to keep track of verbal invitations, then a pocket notebook is the thing to have. A Panama Notebook like this one from Smythson are great, and perfect for those still into the art of writing down notes by hand (which tends to improve data retention). While there are alternatives like those offered by field notes, these Panama notebooks are a bit more sturdy, due to their leather covers, meaning that will not fall apart after a month of it living in your back pocket. In terms of size, it's about the size of a medium stack of 3x5 cards which isn't too cumbersome for a pocket while still being worth the price tag.

Topman Blue Chambray Button-Up

via topman.com

via topman.com

Every guy needs at least one shirt that can transition well from work to play, and nothing does that like a good chambray (check the rhyme gents). This Blue chambray button-up from Topman is a great work shirt that can be an even better going out option with a simple untucking. This specific shirt is designed in Topman's muscle fit style, meaning its has a fairly steep taper, and higher cut arm holes at the shoulders to help show off all the work you've been putting in at the gym with your New Years Resolution. That being said, this style is definitely more for body types that are wider at the shoulders than the waist, so keep that in mind. You can wear this with your (hopefully dwindling) fleet of khakis, navy blue chino's (for some blue on blue love) or olive cords for a warm, comfortable look that is riddled with texture.

Eskimos Without Igloos - Coffee Table Book

via onekingslane.com

via onekingslane.com

Have you ever been in a house or apartment where everything in the space looked like it came out of a magazine? If you break it down, you'll notice the small details are what brings out a sense of awe and makes the whole scene seem impressive. Now it's time for you to impress others with your small apartment details. We like to have fun with this part, specifically regarding coffee table books. This book, Eskimos Without Igloos is an actual book about the development of the Sugluk people, but more importantly, its an interesting title and awesome aesthetic for a classic or modern decor. However, we strongly urge you not add anything to your apartment unless there is a specific place for it. Over crowding of things can cause internal turmoil, and a cluttered appearance is the opposite of awe-inspiring.

H&M Hooded T-shirt

We are channelling our inner Californian with this pick. This hooded t-shirt is a step off from the classic work-play crossover spectrum we normally play in and a step into the street style of Long Beach. A hooded t-shirt provides a unique style with some mild added functionality, especially in the cold. This piece is a great snag if you are looking to add a different vibe to your closet without investing a lot. We suggest you pair this with a nice pair of skinny jeans and some Nike Presto's along with a gym membership to make everything slightly tighter to complete the look.

Woodlore Cedar Shoe Trees

If you got yourself some nice leather dress shoes as a holiday gift, now is the time to start protecting them to make sure they last. The first step in this process is getting some cedar shoe trees like these from Woodlore. The cedar is aromatic, meaning it will soak up your foot stink, and the adjustable toe ensures a prefect fit into your new dress shoes. These tree will help reduce toe creases, and avoid any crumbling when packed in an over-stuffed suitcase. This $25 investment is low cost-high reward in that it will keep your shoes in prime shape for years, allowing you to spend the future shoe-replacement money on something else, like a suit jacket or chinos to wear with those new shoes.

Rhone Torrent Pant

via Rhone.com

via Rhone.com

What does your ever-recurring gym-themed new year resolution need? The right pants to perform in. These Nylon-Polyester blend workout pants are great for weight training. They are super stretchy meaning they won't inhabit your squatting, thrusting, and snatching abilities without sliding at the waist, avoiding the squat dip plumber's crack. They have a zipper pocket on the butt, to secure your wallet or keys, and an elastic front pocket that keeps your phone in place while rowing, running, and box jumping. We really like them for leg day (which is every day) or those of you doing Crossfit and are still doing WODs involving outdoor running. A heads up on fit: the inseam on the mediums is 32in so if you are a little shorter, you may need to get these hemmed to keep them out of the way.
