While we may think of Lululemon as a place where our girlfriends and wives get their yoga pants and other athletic gear, it turns out there are some great products for men. So much so that we consider the brand one of the best for men’s workout clothes. It’s a heavily guarded secret. So, if this comes as a shock to you, we predict you’re not alone, as Lululemon is currently hosting a “We Made Too Much” (we’re reading this as inventory, not money) sale, with tons of great items for men. And the especially good news? We’re seeing great items heavily discounted, with the lowest costing a mere $9.

What you should buy during the Lululemon We Made Too Much sale

One of the first things that really pop out in the Lululemon “We Made Too Much” sale is the hats. These hats are unique in a good way. While the benefits of running are many and wonderful, staying cool isn’t one of them. Hats help. Hats like the High Ventilation Running Hat, suitable for men and women, are super helpful. Somewhat tent-like in appearance and designed with high airflow in mind, you’ll be happy to get the once $48 hat for just $19. Lululemon’s drawcord hiking caps will be enjoyed by those of us going through the best hiking trails in national parks, never about to fall off while our hands are busy grasping at trees and keeping us balanced. Most are discounted by 50% or more for these deals.

While there are a ton of other things on sale, we really recommend that you take a look at their exercise shorts. They offer a wider color and design spectrum than most men’s athletic shorts have — who hasn’t long tired of the typical black, dark red, and light gray we see over and over again? These shorts — though every model differs somewhat — are typically made of fast-drying materials, have sweat wicking, and include recycled materials for that feel-good green boost. Be especially on the lookout for the Fast and Free Lined Shorts 6″, which are typically $88, can now be purchased for as low as $39, and are now on their final sale.

Be sure, however, to check out all of the items, which include shirts, socks, reusable water bottles, bags, and sweatpants by tapping the button below.

Swatch’s new gold MoonSwatch is priced like it’s 1969

Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Guess what? It’s another MoonSwatch — but this isn’t just another colorway. The new drop from the Switzerland-based watchmaker, the MoonSwatch Mission to the Moon 1969, is the first to use real gold across the dial, hands, crown, and pushers.

The watch marks the anniversary of the Apollo 11 landing on July 21, 1969.

Breitling’s new Top Time is a wearable tribute to the Aston Martin DB5

Car, Watch, Man

Breitling just released a trio of heaters: the Top Time B01 Chronograph 41 Tribute to Aston Martin DB5, a three-edition collaboration with the British carmaker. The connection between the Swiss watchmaker and the British car company runs back to 1965, when a Top Time ref. 2002 appeared on Sean Connery’s wrist in Thunderball, worn alongside the DB5 — the first Q-modified watch in the Bond series. It’s a nice bit of trivia that the DB5 and that Top Time shared the screen in the same film, and both went on to outlive the movie by decades.

The car cues go deeper than the “squircle” gauge-shaped subdials: a wooden inner ring nods to the DB5’s steering wheel, and each edition rides on a hand-colored gradient calfskin strap meant to read like automotive upholstery. All three run on Breitling’s in-house Manufacture Caliber 01, a COSC-certified automatic chronograph with a 70-hour power reserve, visible through a sapphire caseback and finished with an Aston Martin-engraved rotor. The case measures 41mm. The editions are divvied up by material and rarity. Stainless steel with a silver dial is limited to 1,022 pieces and sticks closest to the original ref. 2002, while steel with a platinum bezel and black lacquered dial drops to 315 pieces.

Look to the sky for these space themed watches

Accessories, Strap, Wristwatch

It was the 1960s. We were in the middle of a Cold War with Russia, and instead of escalating to an actual war with bullets and bombs, we took the conflict to the sky. We created a war of economics, science, and morale in a race to the sky to be the first nation to reach the moon. While the race picked up throughout the decade, it came down to the wire before the USA won the race by landing on the moon (if you believe that sort of thing and don’t believe Stanley Kubrick directed the greatest ruse of all time). In any case, no race can be run without a good timekeeper. And watches were a must-have for all involved. Ever since, chronophiles like me have been obsessed with space-themed watches and, in particular, moon mission watches.

That is why I happened to have this list in my head. Five watches that bring the space race and the great beyond to the forefront of thinking to build a collection that is out of this world.
