If you know of a product that you think should be featured in my weekly Gear Guide then feel free to hit me up via email at cass@brobible.com.


The Minimalist Luminous Swiss Watch From Brathwait — Save Big Thanks To The Eclipse

things we want

I’ve featured Brathwait Swiss watches here in the past in the Things We Want column because they’re the most transparent Swiss watch maker around, meaning they don’t jack up the price with a bunch of things hidden below the surface. Monday is the total solar eclipse here in America, and they’ll be running a very timely deal on the Minimalist Luminous timepiece:

“Beginning at 9AM ET on eclipse day, customers will be able to access exclusive pricing for the Minimalist Luminous via the BRATHWAIT website. Tracing the path of totality, the percentage savings will increase by 10% every two hours as the eclipse passes over the continental United States — building from 10% off to a max of 30% off by the time the eclipse reaches South Carolina.”

This is an extremely sharp timepiece. One that will match your day-to-day wardrobe as well as your formalwear. You can dress this watch up or down for any occasion, and it’s one that’s certain to turn heads regularly.

So, if you want to save 30% on this watch thanks to the first total solar eclipse in decades just follow that link!

Phiaton BT 390 Wireless Headphones (Comes In Black Or White)

things we want

I had the chance to test out the Phiaton BT 390 wireless Bluetooth headphones this week and I’ll tell you bros that I was blown away. Something that stuck out the most to me about these headphones is how the sound quality seemed to be optimal at extreme (high and low) volumes. I threw on ‘Rap Caviar’ on Spotify and tested these headphones out for several hours and I definitely think these are worth way more than the $79 sticker price on Amazon. The Bluetooth 4.1 leads to enhanced battery life and sound quality. The battery lasts up to 30 hours on continuous play, and there’s a cable which allows you ot use the headphones by plugging directly into the headphone jack even after the battery has run out. These are legit, and if you need some new headphones (or know someone who does) you should click that link below.

Tevas Sandals — They’re Back

things we want

I was eight years old when I owned my first pair of Tevas in the 90s. I got them at K-Mart in the summer and there were little red lizards woven into the straps. They lasted an entire summer, being the best shoe ever for wading in the freestone mountain creek near my parent’s house, walking over rocks to catch minnows and crayfish. My Jesus-walkers had to be retired after my next growth spurt.

A staple of us Phish-loving, weekend-warrior granola types in the ’90s, Tevas have quietly made a cool comeback over the past couple years. They’re *still* the summer sandal of choice for people who need to get their feet wet when kayaking, tubing, rafting, whatever… And their designs are radder than ever. The Teva Universal Sandal has a plethora of colorways and The Sanborn is the most comfortable open-toed shoe you’ll ever wear. The Terra Float, pictured above, is the ultimate fast-drying river shoe.

Suck it, elitist fashion snobs: Tevas are cool again. Welcome to the greatest era of human footwear history. — @brandonwenerd

This Cold Brew Coffee Maker Is The Best Thing I’ve Bought Myself All Summer

Takeya Cold Brew Coffee maker

This BPA-free, dishwasher safe plastic pitcher has a built-in infuser. You pour the coffee grounds into the infuser, drop it into the water, let it sit overnight (8 to 36 hours), and you’ve got delicious cold brew coffee waiting for you. I prefer to add a healthy dose of cinnamon into the middle of the coffee grounds, and I use the Starbucks Morning Blend which I buy in bulk online.

The Takeya Cold Brew Iced Coffee Maker only costs $19. You can make the cold brew coffee overnight and then remove the infuser, or you can purchase the set of two pitchers and transfer the coffee into the empty pitcher. I prefer this (this is the setup I purchased) because it enables me to always be making more cold brew coffee. I drink several cups a day and I’ve yet to run out because I always have one pitcher that I’m drinking cold brew out of and another pitcher that is brewing up delicious coffee.
