I’ve been in the watch game a long time, and my collection is still nowhere near where I would’ve wanted. There are just so many types of watches to choose from that it’s almost impossible to pick just one when the extra money is available. And the truth is, I’m pretty happy with my modest…
Let’s face it, guy: We don’t wear suits as often as we used to. I don’t mean how you wore suits as a little boy but not prefer to wear your favorite team t-shirt. I mean how men in generations before us wore suits frequently. They had style and knew how to dress. In fact,…
Writing with a fountain pen can be intimidating. It takes some getting used to, and if you scour pen threads, the gentlemen there will use terms that make it sound much more complicated than it is. And while I’m a big fan of writing with a fountain pen (I got my first Kaweco in a…

Look, it’s cliche to say, but life is short, and honestly, we could die tomorrow. And if there’s anything we’ve learned over the last few years, you never know what could happen or how much time you have to do the things you love. If you have a bucket list, putting off doing the things…
The first time I wrote with a fountain pen, I felt like an idiot. The ink wouldn’t flow and the tip felt like it was just scratching away at the paper. But, once I learned how to use a fountain pen, I fell in love with it. I started buying them and giving them away…
Let’s connect on this one, guys. Unless you’re into some niche kink, no one likes sweaty balls. They’re uncomfortable. They stink. And they can definitely kill the mood. They even create a breeding ground for bacteria, some of which can cause infections and other skin problems. We gotta look out for our boys! So this…
If you’re around 30 years old and you haven’t quite hit your stride yet, don’t worry. There’s a lot of crappy information and advice out there that seems to shame guys into being something or someone they aren’t ready to be. But, at around 30, you should be thinking about the type of man you…
