Kaws Lightbulb Set


KAWS Lightbulb Set

I have this inherent desire to upgrade everything around me – even if it isn’t exactly necessary. Dishwashers end up supercharged. Cars get spoiled. Offices and closets get Van Goghed. But once I got my spirally, super green CFL bulbs I thought I was done with lightbulb upgrades. Turns out  I was  wrong. KAWS (the artist with the toys that look kind of like Mickey Mouse with the X eyes) teamed up with the Standard Hotel to create lightbulbs with a custom X KAWS style filament in three colors. At around $20 a pop, the 120volt bulbs are definitely pricey, but they’re also the only light bulbs I've ever been excited to buy. $65

Maker USA


MakerUSA

There’s something wrong about buying a surfboard from someone who doesn’t surf, it’s like buying diet pills from someone who looks like they haven’t seen the inside of a gym in a decade.  When you purchase a surfboard, skateboard or snowboard from MakerUSA not only will you first and foremost get an amazing piece of art, but you’ll get a board performance tested by an industry sportsman.  Okay, so back to the designs - they’re insane!  MakerUSA collaborates with local and well-known artists (including graphic designers, street artists, painters and tattoo artists) to create boards your buddies will be jealous of.  They also make it a point to be sustainable, utilizing FCS certified woods and veneers and working with local lumberyards.  Plus, the boards themselves are recyclable, as in after you smash it one day you can just put it on display in your house.

Whiskey Stone Shot Glasses


Whiskey Stone Shot Glasses
While we might want an ice cube or some water to smooth out the flavor of some bottom shelf spirits, when we dip into our collection of the good stuff we want an option that chills it without diluting it.  If that option also happens to look like a shooter they passed around a medieval round table - all the better.  This set of Whiskey Stone Shot Glasses have to sit in the freezer for just 4 hours before they become the perfect serving options for some 18 year-old reserve stuff or even something like a round of Kettle One.  The soapstone shooters, while looking anciently cool, will still do little to help the taste of Popov. $40

Woodsman Axe Coffee Table

Woodsman Axe Coffee Table

While you might store an axe inside your home you’re probably not using it in there.  Chopping firewood in the living room is a pretty poor idea unless you want your hardwood floors to look like a sumo wrestler with ice skates walked across them.  A far better indoor axe idea would be this Woodsman Axe Coffee Table.  Inspired by the Brothers Grimm fairy tale “Little Red Cap” – or “Little Red Riding Hood” as many of us know it – this coffee table is one of the finest pieces of wood butchery we’ve laid eyes on.  The walnut or light oak veneer top is supported by four seemingly implanted solid hickory handled axes.  Trust us, nobody will have the balls to not use a coaster if this was your coffee table. $815

Emergency Fire Starter

Zippo Outdoor Line Emergency Fire Starter (Orange, 4.50 x 4 x 6.25)
I'm use to using Zippos to light the cigarettes of beautiful women emerging from late night drinking establishments, hoping that our skill in opening and closing the little silver lighter faster than Wyatt Earp would somehow entice them into our abode.  While this has rarely panned out, I still carried the trusty lighter around with me even if we didn’t light up ourselves.  When I take my life out of the after-hours of the city and into the twilight hours of the outdoors I switch over to this Zippo Emergency Fire Starter.  The orange Zippo has a reliable flint wheel and water-resistant waxed tinder sticks to light when you need to get a fire going pronto, because emergencies – like slightly buzzed smoking hot women – need to be acted upon ASAP. $16

eco-friendly vehicles

The Sora Electric Motorcycle
They say if you do what you love you’ll never work a day in your life. That’s a load of crap. Ultimately you’re just going to spend more sleepless nights making sure every last detail is perfect. Case in point, the engineers at Lito Green Motion. Two long years of development work from bike enthusiast engineers resulted in this, the Sora Electric Motorcycle. It might look like it’s from Tron, but it’s anything but a figment of your imagination. It’s got specs like a normal motorcycle: two wheels, rakes, 708ft-lbs of torque, top speed of 120mph and a range of 185 miles, but that’s where the similarities to  its gas-guzzling brethren end. It also has an LCD touch screen, on-board GPS and the world’s first electric seat. Ride it like a cafe racer, street fighter or daily driver with one simple touch of a button. Who wants to loan us $44k? $44k+
