Cool Eyewear

Posted by Paul On February - 4 - 2012

There’s always been a stigma about glasses, thanks to the geek moniker and “four eyes” insults that began when glasses were, let’s face it, unflattering to say the least.

But things have changed in the past decade or so, as glasses have become more of a fashion statement, and therefore cool. Even reading  glasses can be cool. As an example look at  the  PO3007V 24 by Persol. Look cool, professional and smart, even if you’re not.

1000 e1305841235990 Number 1000 Cufflinks

For the love of Etsy these recycled cufflinks are cool. Made from rare 1000 typewriter keys, they have polished and stuck to sterling silver backing.

You are probably saying, yeah they might be cool, but I don’t wear suits buddy. Well, someday no matter how anti-establishment you are, you’re going to a wedding, funeral, and most likely some other shindig where you’re going to look like a douchebag without a suit. And these cufflinks are going to provide the cool factor.

Android Alien Black Dial Watch

androidwatch 1024x1024 Android Alien Black Dial Watch

My favorite watches these days are the Android watches. I picked this one because it’s really unique. And you’re going to get attention for wearing it. Maybe not the kind of attention you want, as in hot girls. No, probably more like old X-Files fans and other assorted UFO nuts. But attention is attention, and the watch really is cool.

Anyway, maybe you’re one of those UFO nut jobs who has a fantasy of wanting to get beamed up and probed by the “greys.” Hey, I’m not one to judge. We all have our fantasies…weirdo. $85.98

Anthony Logistics: An All Purpose Men’s Facial Moisturizer

anthony logistics for men Anthony Logistics: An All Purpose Mens Facial Moisturizer

We men like our 2 in 1, or 3 in 1 products. So when it comes to skin care products, we don’t fifty different bottles in our medicine cabinets, for each little skin problem. The rub is that there is a reason to buy products specifically for skin care, under eye care, etc. It’s because they are better than all in ones.

Anthony Logistics All Purpose Men’s Facial Moisturizer SPF15 is the exception. You can find all of the skin care ingredients you want in one bottle: Extracts of bilberry, sugarcane, maple sugar and orange and lemon to rid your skin of lines and blotches. Panthenol to retain moisture and vitamins A, C and E nourish. Highly recommended for younger skin.

Cheapest price I found is at Grooming Lounge.

man groomer ManGroomer, the Private Body Shaver

I’m not sure why it’s called the Private Body Shaver. Do the rich and famous have personal body shavers that come in once a week? Or maybe their stylists shave them? Either way, ManGroomer is a needed grooming item for the hairy among us. Especially if you’re concerned with having a nicely shaved back, chest, face or anywhere else you, or your partner, feel there needs to be less hair. And as you get older, the ManGroomer will come in handy getting rid of those unwanted hairs popping up in places you never thought you would find hair.

Let’s Grow a Mustache for Cancer

Posted by Paul On November - 2 - 2010

Burt Reynolds Lets Grow a Mustache for CancerWell, not literally grow a mustache to get cancer. But to bring awareness to prostrate cancer. Which is a good thing to do, since it affects a lot of men, and can be deadly.

So if you’re going to do it, check out Valet have a guide to tapping into your inner 70′s persona. Also check out the official Movember site on how to get involved in this worthy cause.

Star Wars Chewbacca Manager’s Coat

Posted by Paul On October - 15 - 2010

Wookie Addidas Star Wars Chewbacca Managers Coat

If you wear this, people may actually assume you went out one day and shot a Wookie and made a coat out of it’s hide. With fur and everything. You didn’t waste a scrap. You even used the teeth to make a necklace. And then everyone will be mad because Chewbacca was cool, and the Wookies fought with the rebels. And you’re wearing fur on top of all of that!

But don’t worry, it’s faux fur, so PETA won’t be dumping red paint on you. And in all seriousness, the Star Wars Chewbacca Manager’s Coat looks very warm. And if you live in the Arctic like conditions that I live in each winter, you appreciate a warm coat. Forget the face that it looks a little (ok a lot) like a woman’s coat. Your gonna be nice and toasty when those cold January winds try to freeze your nuts off. And the Star Wars logo? Don’t worry about it. If you’re buying this coat everyone probably knows how much you are into Star Wars anyway. Which is probably way too much.
