Men’s Style/Life Guide: Gadgets & Goodies to get you in gear for Summer

Since Summer is just around the corner we thought it would be a good idea to throw together a style/life guide of some cool new shit you should buy/wear/ use. Most of the items in here are from lesser known companies that are making innovative and super-quality goods. There’s even a sleek little tool that will help you get buzzed out in public, while still flying under the radar. Perfect for baseball season.

1. If you’re in the market for a pair of party shades this Summer CRAP EYEWEAR has you covered. With names like the “Nudie Mag” “Beach Party” ‘Human Fly” and “Juan Jovi“, you can tell CRAP makes killer shades that will withstand even the roughest thrashings and still keep you looking rad.

2. Get ready to hit the beach or the street in Comune’s new Sloan board shorts. When you’re out drinking all day and don’t have the time to head home to change before a wild night, just rock these bad boys and no one will have any idea you’ve been sloshed out on PBR since 10 am.

3. When you’re about to embark on an “adventure” throw on Altamont‘s Acid snap back hat and get ready to trip… This acid-washed hat will keep you shaded while you’re getting faded out…

4. The Insight Uneven tank will be your go-to this Summer.

5.  Take the Kodak Playsport HD Pocket Video Camera with you wherever you go, because you never know when you will need to capture some serious gold on film. This thing is waterproof  to 10 ft deep, has a 5 megapixel camera, shoots 1080 p HD quality, and has a built-in image-stabilizer. Even if your hands are shaky because of the week-long bender you’ve been out on, you won’t have to worry about sabotaging the footage.  The best part about it: It’s only $150 bucks!

6. These all-black Vans E Street shoes are a super comfy pair that you can wear anytime of the day. Whether you’re pulling dawn-patrol at your favorite surf spot or wandering through the streets of Downtown in the wee hours of the morning- these shoes won’t let you down. Even when everything else has.

7. With Opening Day at the horse races coming up soon, I’m sure you’re going to want to blow your money on horses with hilarious names rather than expensive drinks. This is where the Double Sided Binocular Flask comes in handy. Also will come in handy around the 6th inning of a good ol’ Padres game… Nothing wrong with starting at the first inning too.

8. Plaid is rad. Pick up the RVCA Romero John Plaid button up shirt and keep it real.
