Duer Water Repellent Pants

Before the spring rains set in to soak North America from Atlanta to Albany and Tallahassee to Tacoma, you should outfit yourself for the forthcoming foul weather with a pair of water repellent pants.

The reasons for doing so are many: including the most obvious–staying dry in the rain–but there are additional benefits to water repellent pants, including the ability to also repel oil and dirt. Which means, whether you’re a cyclist pounding puddles on your way to work or a pedestrian who happens to get a splash-back from a thoughtless motorist, you’ll remain dry, warm, and presentable through it all.

To get you, our faithful reader, into a pair of water repellent pants sooner rather than later (and for free), we’ve partnered up with Vancouver, British Columbia-based Duer to giveaway a pair of their fantastic Stay Dry 2.0 Denim Jeans ($139) and a pair of their Live Free Adventure Pant ($142) to one lucky winner and a friend. Yes, not only do you have a chance to win two pairs of high-end water-repellent pants, but you also get to call the shots on the who gets a second set. Maybe you want to reward a good friend, a nephew, son, or even your hip-as-hell dad–the choice is yours.

Some features of the pants:

  • Water repellency using Duer’s biodegradable Rainshield treatment
  •  Invisible seat gusset, allowing free-range of motion while preventing “crotch blow-outs”
  • Slim cut, but not tight
  • Triple-stitch seams for long-lasting durability
  • the Stay Dry Denim is 30% lighter and stronger than traditional denim
  • Odor-neutralizing Silvadur treatment

For your chance to win a pair of Duer Stay Dry 2.0 Denim and Live Free Adventure pants for yourself and for a friend, fill out the form below and tag a pal on social media. And, if your friend enters and tags you, you just doubled your chances at walking away looking brand new.

If you just can’t wait for the contest to run its course, though, you can always check out Duer’s website or read more about their ultra-cool shirts and Nature 2X fabrics.

A DECADE of &SONS chronicled in a new collection
&SONS

A decade ago, Phil James had a problem. He couldn’t find anything he wanted to wear on the clothing racks. There were big names everywhere in 2016. Names that had been generational legends for years. But, no matter how hard he looked, he just couldn’t find the clothing he truly wanted to wear. So, he decided to do what any rational person would do when they have nothing to wear: He started his own business. &SONS was born, and after ten years of providing some of the best British workwear, DECADE is a collection that celebrates what he and his team have done on their journey.

I have always been drawn to the marketing side of the brand. It makes sense; James has experience in his career that predates &SONS, as a marketing photographer. So, no wonder all the images looked amazing. Noe, the new collection looks back on that experience and the rising name he has built.

The best non-alcoholic fall beers to celebrate Sober October
Deschutes

Dry January might be the most popular month for taking a break from alcohol, but Sober October is a close second. If you’re spending this month sans alcohol and you’re getting tired of simply drinking sparkling water, there are options aplenty, especially if you’re usually a beer drinker.

If you didn’t know it already, the non-alcoholic beer world has improved a lot in the last decade. When I first started writing about alcohol twenty years ago, I wrote an article where I taste-tested NA beers and the results were fairly brutal. While I won’t name the beers, pretty much all were fizzy, yellow, and at best fairly flavorless. In essence, they didn’t really taste like beer. That’s definitely not the same today. It’s a whole new world of non-alcoholic beer.

Luminox adds a new chronograph to the Carbon Seal Series
Luminox

Luminox began a long-standing relationship with one of the most elite special forces teams in the world in 1992 when they began making tactical watches for the Navy SEALs. Ever since, they have been the brand on the front lines (or behind them is probably the more appropriate statement) of all of the major conflicts across the globe. The team at Luminox elevated the SEAL watches with the Master Carbon SEAL collection which uses a stronger version of the brand’s CARBONOX. A long-bar carbon fiber compound three times lighter than titanium and twice as strong as standard CARBONOX. They are deepening the collection with a new chronograph, the new 3880.

“The connection to the Navy SEALs is both a legacy and a responsibility. From the very beginning, our watches have been designed to perform under the toughest conditions. That expectation continues to shape everything we do—not only for SEAL teams, but also for adventurers around the world who rely on their gear when pushing their limits.” – Pierrick Marcoux, Group Product Director at Luminox
