Win Free Stuff: Ball and Buck’s New Active + Collection for the Outdoorsman

With spring right around the corner, it’s time to start thinking shorts again. Our friends at Ball and Buck have come out with a new active collection that has us stoked for summer.

Creating the highest-quality goods, Ball and Buck is a brand for the sporting gentleman while supporting American jobs in manufacturing. But don’t think this is some out of reach brand for hedge fund managers and tech-bros. Founded in 2008, these guys live the life and know what works. And, even though the brand is American made, the prices aren’t through the roof.

To get you pumped for warmer weather, our friends at Ball and Buck are giving away two items from their newest Active + Collection: the Active Short + and the Anglers Shirt +.

THE 6 POINT ACTIVE SHORT +

Made with 3.4oz Nylon Taslan fabric, these shorts have a quick-dry water repellent finish. We are fans of the adjustable waistband, the antique brass button fly, and mesh pocket inserts for drainage for when you cannonball into the local lazy river (just take out your phone first).

THE ANGLERS SHIRT +

This water resistant, lightweight shirt features both button up sleeves and a roll-tab breast pocket to attach Ball and Buck’s Versa Fly Patch to keep your flies safe when you’re spending your days out on the water.

For your shot at a chance to win this $275 value (in the form of some damn sharp quick dry shorts and light weight anglers shirt), simply provide your name and email below. You can also get bonus entries by following us on social media (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter) and signing up for our newsletter. The contest runs from March 22, 2017 through March 29, 2017, with the winner notified shortly thereafter.

Ariat teams with rodeo legend for true cowboy collection
Trevor Brazile knows cowboying, and wants to help you become one
Ariat Relentless

Ariat is a big name in western wear. They are one of the biggest. From stellar boots and jeans to attractive and functional shirts and outerwear, they have always been one of the go-to brands for everything cowboys need. With the National Finals Rodeo about to kick off in Las Vegas, you will likely see Ariat everywhere, and even more likely, you will see their collection with 26-time world champion Trevor Brazile. The collection, Ariat Relentless, is one of the most stylistically functional lines a cowboy has seen.

“I've been a big part of everything I’ve done with Ariat,” Trevor explains. “The team is truly interested in moving cowboys’ and cowgirls’ lives forward, and they've been at the forefront of innovation for so long, and that’s what drew me in. On their own, technology and tradition are not enough. But Ariat puts those two together with everyday use, which has made this collection real.”

Bulgari Octo Finissimo Laurent Grasso Special Edition watch

As a brand that collaborates with artists and designers, Bulgari has been introducing iconic pieces into the market. Some artists who have worked on Bulgari timepieces include Mo Coppoletta, Kazuyo Sejima, and Tadao Ando. After partnering up with Laurent Grasso, the brand rolled out a new timepiece with a very stylish dial featuring cloud-like and intriguing cosmos art.

For starters, Bulgari's Fabrizio Buonamassa Stigliani had a vision of a watch that could explain the concept of time from a different perspective, a metaphysical point of view. Laurent Gasso, who is quite popular for his cosmos art, was the perfect artist for such a project, and the two creators partnered up to create something magical.
