Wallets That Fit The Bill – But Won’t Break The Bank

A wise man once said “ I just purchased a wallet, and now I have nothing to put into it.” Okay, maybe that’s not a real quote, but as much as we admire and respect the handsome craftsmanship of a $1,300 Hermès wallet, there is absolutely nothing worse than buying something that holds your money- and having nothing left to put in it. Actually, there is something worse, having your wallet stolen, or losing a wallet that costs more than the items inside. That is why we are bringing you a neat selection of wallets at an affordable price. They’re basically a steal.

Bison Made’s medium sized wallet is handmade in the USA with no glue, rubber, lining, no nonsense.  – $110

The 10 best men’s workout shirts to help you get fit in 2023

There are multiple things to consider when purchasing new workout apparel. You want to make sure you do your due diligence beforehand. When looking for the optimal workout shirt, functionality often takes precedence over style, for most men. After all, a minimalist cotton t-shirt is ideal, but it won't look (or smell) so great after an hour-long workout, especially if your working out, outdoors. That's why, in the past decade, some of our favorite activewear brands like Lululemon, Vuori, and Under Armour have developed breathable fabrics with moisture-wicking and odor-fighting technology that are now practically must-haves for any exercise gear, especially when it comes to making high-quality shirts.

That being said, not all workout tops are created equal. When it comes to finding the right workout fit, make sure it doesn't feel too tight or baggy around your underarms, your shoulders, or across your chest, i.e., the areas you exercise most. We sifted through some of the most popular brands to select the best workout shirts that are as practical as they are fashionable. Here are our top picks for the best men's workout shirts of 2023.

It turns out that learning to tie your shoes in Kindergarten may not have been the win you and your parents thought it was. Men’s slip-on shoes are all the rage these days. Call them ugly all you want — they’re easy to slip on when you’re in a rush and cozy to boot.

Maybe you’re a resident sneakerhead, or perhaps you simply don’t feel like splurging on a pair of designer men’s slip-on shoes. You might simply not be able to get passed the “ugly shoe” label of Birkenstocks (or the more budget-friendly dupes). Still, the ease of slip-on shoes is a massive perk.
