First up we have the Jaybird Vista Earthproof Wireless Headphones Planetary Green colorway. These earbuds have been overhauled to meet the military’s MIL-STD 810G requirements. If they’re rugged enough for the troops they’re good enough for you, right? In order to receive the MIL-STD 810G certification the ‘Earthproof’ Vistas had to endure ‘repeated shock, vibration, drop and crush tests, as well as withstanding tropical humidity, hurricane-force water and desert sandstorm conditions.’

The ARKK Copenhagen Raven Nubuck Sneakers are on sale for only $107 when their usual price tag is $155. They have a premium Vibram sole which provides the best grip around, are extremely lightweight thanks to the comfortable neoprene upper, and have a cushioned midsole that makes them ideal for all-day wear or for working out.

Moving on, we’ve got the Vuori Ease Performance 1/2 Zip which is another item that’s on sale. This is an absolute f’n steal at only $41 right now on Huckberry but they’re sold out in Small so I hope you’re a Medium or Large because this is an excellent 1/2 Zip layer.

You can pair that Vuori 1/2 Zip with the Fourlaps Advance Short. I’m 100% serious when I tell you that I’m typing out this sentence while wearing these shorts at home right now. I love these. I wear them to work out. To work from home. And to just chill around the house. Check ’em out.

Next up, we check out a unique everyday carry pocket knife from Deejo Knives which features a dope custom blade tattoo. These are some of the most customizable knives on the planet, they are super light, and ideal for everyday carry. They allow you to pick a unique ‘tattoo’ to make the knife your own as well as choosing the blade and handle features.

The Nixon Ripley Watch is on sale and it’s a watch that’s built to survive a blizzard or tornado. It’s incredibly rugged and precise thanks to the Miyota Japanese quartz movement. This watch is only $129 right now when it’s usually $200.

Moving on, we’ve got the Magpul DAKA Everyday Wallet which has a windowed ID slot, two credit card slots, a center divider for your folded cash, and it’s made out of a brilliant polymer infused textile that’s oil, water, dirt, and stain-resistant.

The Aer Fit Pack 2 is a perfect everyday backpack or travel companion. The water-resistant 1680D Cordura ballistic nylon exterior ensures your gear stays dry while the front-load compartment is super spacious. There are also pockets throughout and a ventilated shoe compartment on the bottom for your gym shoes or boots.

We round it out today with Larq Bottle – Self Sanitizing Water Bottle. Let’s be honest, $95 is an outrageous price for a water bottle. But this still has my attention unlike anything I’ve come across in a while. This is the cleanest water bottle on the market thanks to the UV-C LED purification system that cleans 99.999% of bacteria in only 60 seconds. It’s a double-wall vacuum sealed water bottle like the ones you’re accustomed to which means cold drinks stay cold for up to 24 hours. If you’re interested in learning more, here’s a quick clip:

Last up is the Tactica M.100 – 17-in-1 Multi-Tool which is a TSA-compliant multi-tool that has magnetic bit retention that’s said to talk around half of your toolbox and shrink it down into a tiny pocket tool. It’s lightweight, has an integrated hex socket for ergonomic driving, and more. This is a clutch daily pocket tool and/or one to keep tucked in your bag for when you need it.
