Giveaway: 52 Pairs of Columbia Underwear for the New Year

Some of you may remember (and may have even entered) our contest from a few months ago: We gave away a whopping 52 pairs of Gold Toe Socks, one pair for each week of the year.

Strap on your drawers, because we’ve got another giveaway that may put those socks to shame. If there’s one thing more important than socks in a man’s wardrobe, it’s underwear. And we’ve partnered up with Columbia to give away 52 pairs of the brand’s stretch cotton boxer briefs. Yes, that’s right, we are giving away one pair of Columbia underwear for each week in the new year. With that kind of a windfall coming at you in January, you’ll start off 2018 with a refreshed underwear drawer and, hopefully, a refreshed outlook on life. Who can be a pessimist while wearing new underwear? We’ll answer for you: literally no one.

You can also theoretically go for 52 days wearing a fresh pair of underwear each day before having to do any underwear laundry. Now that’s what we call a holiday miracle.

But, what’s so great about this underwear? To start, the stretch-factor is fantastic, meaning you can move whichever way you want without constant readjustment (or atomic wedgies), making these a great option for both everyday wear and workout session. Another benefit is the Omni-wick advanced evaporation, which allows for perspiration and moisture to be pulled away from the body quickly, meaning no chafing. These bad boys also sport an anti-microbial treatment, so they stay fresher longer —though we always suggest washing underwear after every use because, well, duh.

Now that you’ve heard all the benefits, what are you waiting for? Sign up below for your chance to win this amazing offer with a total retail value of approximately $430.

Why these 7 watches are smart style statements

Owning a luxury watch is an investment often stemming from a passion for horology and a smart financial move. The right watch can significantly appreciate over time to become a wearable asset and ultimately a family heirloom. Despite these grand prospects, not every watch has this benefit, as some depreciate rapidly or lack demand from avid collectors.

According to the CEO and co-founder of Bezel, Quaid Walker, "Watches are made to be worn, so always choose a watch that you love, versus selecting a watch purely as a speculative investment. The market tends to favor the iconic brands due to high demand, limited supply, and brand prestige, but none of that matters if you don’t enjoy wearing it."

The Glashuette Original 70s chronograph

Glashütte is going back to one of the most iconic eras in fashion with the release of its Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date, a timepiece that combines the singularly 1970s-inspired design with contemporary technical brilliance. Housed in a sleek 40mm x 40mm stainless steel case and showcasing a distinctive tonneau shape, this model is the epitome of understated sophistication, its satin-brushed and polished surfaces catching the light with refined precision. The gradient blue dial will remind of twilight skies, featuring a sunray finish that shifts in color depending on the angle, while the applied indices and faceted hands ensure excellent legibility. The in-house Calibre 37-02 automatic movement can be viewed through the sapphire caseback and showcases Glashütte Original’s signature three-quarter plate, blued screws, and hand-engraved balance cock – a testament to Saxon watchmaking at the highest level.
