Best for performance
Athletegy Quad Short 2.0
- Lined for the perfect triathlon training
- Made by athletes
- Sometimes the sizing feels inconsistent
When you're dedicated to the fitness lifestyle, the right apparel is the best friend you need every single day. When your gym buddy flakes for a rest day, these shorts will continue to work hard for you in ways no other does. These are a flattering and modern length, shorter than the shorts of the last two decades but not quite the Magnum P.I. shorts that can be a little "insecure" for the gym.
Best for in-home cardio
Hydrow Pro Rower
- A strong workout from the comfort of your own home
- Good for beginner to advanced
- Needs ample room
Some days you just can't get out of the house and get to the gym. For days like that (maybe you're like us and are stuck in the snow drifts), it's best to have a way to workout in the home. Rowing is a great full-body workout getting cardio and strength training in at the same time. There is no better rower on the market than the Hydrow, and a screen with live workout guides makes it perfect for you if you are a beginner or a seasoned vet.
Best for the dedicated fitness man with limited room
Echelon Reflect Fitness Mirror
- Strength training at home
- Easy to use
- Membership needed for full experience
If you don't have the room needed for a full rower, we have the Echelon Reflect for you to be able to get an at-home workout with only the space needed for you to move. The routines are right there in an easy-to-use mirror for you to follow along with and get the sweat going. Some of the best Valentine's Day gifts for men have them up and moving all year round.
Best for the indecisive fitness guy
ClassPass
- Includes tons of classes to choose from
- Free trial gives an opportunity to see if it's the right fit
- Not all gyms are included
Sometimes, you just have to get out of the house to find that motivation to get a good workout in. For that, we have the ClassPass. You don't have to commit to one gym, but you get the benefit of the classes regular gyms offer. Classes are available for yoga, boxing, cycling, Pilates, barre, dance, and more.
Best for the man who ignores recovery
Hyperice Hypersphere
- More portable than other massage guns
- Gentle recovery
- Only three vibration speeds
Your man has the gear, he has the workout routine, but for some reason he is always skipping the recovery. The Hyperice Hypersphere is the quick and easy fix for the man who needs to loosen sore muscles. Coming in two sizes, it's perfect for home or on the road and fits in the gym bag easily.
Best for the man who wants to protect his fit
Savage Gentleman Leather Apron
- Handmade in America
- Manly version of the kitchen essential
- Still when you get it, needs broken in
Look, we like to cook, we like to grill out, and one of the things that comes with it is putting your clothes at risk. But not when you wear an apron, right? Only, sometimes it feels difficult to wear an apron and still feel manly. This leather apron from Savage Gentleman works just as well in the shop as it does in the kitchen.
Best for the guy who cooks with the family in mind
Lockheart Ironworks 10-inch Roaster
- Healthier option than other pans
- Will last long enough that your great grandchildren will still taste your bacon
- Requires special care
If you watch the documentary The Devil We Know, you will understand why Doug Lockheart does what he does. Better yet, instead of watching the documentary, spend 10 minutes with him deep in the wilderness of Hocking Hills, Ohio and he will help you understand the dangers of Teflon and how he and his family create natural nonstick cast-iron pans that will last long enough your great grandchildren will still taste the bacon you made them long after your grandchildren pass the pan on to them.
Best for the TikTok chef

If you are like us, you get caught up in the doom scrolling sometimes. But who can blame us when we see a bada** knife making mouthwatering steak in the freaking woods?

Maybe a little niche, but it gets us excited about cooking for our family, and this Full Forest Sink Set lets us do just that.
Best for the pizza enthusiast
Ooni Karu 2 Pro Ultimate Bundle
- You can toss out the pizza chain coupons
- All you need to make the perfect pizza at home
- Takes expertise to install and use
Like anything you make at home or outdoors, there is a learning curve. We have loved pizza since we watched Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in 1990 (that film still holds up by the way) and we can be picky with it. Of course, making your own is a great way to eliminate the problem of bad pizza. This pizza oven will give you and your man the perfect opportunity to perfect pizza even the Heroes in a Half Shell will appreciate.
Best for the year-round grill enthusiast
Kenyon G2 Electric Grill

It may not be grill season yet, but if your man is anything like us, he is chomping at the bit to get back out to the grill. This electric grill gives him the opportunity to visit grill season in the dead of winter. It can sit inside on the counter or outside on a table and make grilling easy for anyone. Just add water to the drip tray (can be a bit of a pain to dump afterward) and get going.
Best for the outdoorsman who can't sit still

We all know an outdoorsman who simply cannot sit still. Those are the guys who even on a day off or a holiday, you can find them out in the tree stand, chopping down a tree, or exploring a cave.

Best for the man in the woods
Vitaloop Water Filtration Bottle
- Even tap water tastes better
- Enough power for 100 fills (two weeks of water) in one charge
- Only provides 16 fluid ounces at a time
If you have a man in your life who is always on the go, especially if he is always on the go out in the middle of nowhere, then he knows filtered water is like gold.

We love coffee, most men do. And even though we love getting out into the wild unknown and exploring the adventure Earth has to offer, coffee is always something we missed.

Best for the fashionable tech wiz
Ministry of Supply Mercury Heated Town Coat
- Less bulky than other coats
- Easier to control temperature for fewer layers
- Only comes in one color
Staying warm is a need we have had since the beginning of time. As a matter of fact, it may have been the main reason we discovered fire.

Look good and stay warm, the basics of the winter.

Let's be honest, before you put that coat on for the day, you need a good cup of coffee to shake off the sleep.

A watch is a way for a man to show his personality and his status without opening his mouth or being too extravagant.

Best for the man with personality
