Best for: Commuters and anyone who forgets their coffee on the desk.

Fellow
An all-purpose burr grinder that handles everything from espresso to French press. The easiest single upgrade for better coffee at home.
Best for: Anyone still using pre-ground coffee.

Thursday Boot Co.
A Goodyear-welted leather boot that works with jeans or chinos and gets better with wear. It looks far more expensive than it is.
Best for: The guy who has worn the same sneakers for three years.

Fellow
A gooseneck kettle that holds water at an exact temperature. It makes pour-over and tea better, and it looks like a design object rather than an appliance.
Best for: Coffee and tea drinkers who appreciate good tools.

Mack Weldon
A heavyweight overshirt that's as comfortable as a sweatshirt but looks put-together. Easy to wear to the office, dinner, or the couch.
Best for: Comfort-first dressers.
Ridge
A slim, nearly indestructible wallet that replaces the overstuffed leather brick in his back pocket. Carbon fiber makes it feel like an upgrade, not a gadget.
Best for: The guy whose wallet is held together by habit.

Parachute
A soft, lightweight cotton robe that's an easy weekend-morning upgrade. Most men never buy one for themselves, and almost all of them wear it constantly once they have one.
Best for: Slow Sunday mornings.

Craighill
Solid machined-metal desk objects that make a home office look intentional. Heavy, tactile, and built to outlast the desk.
Best for: The work-from-home guy with a sad desk.

Ooni
The launching and turning peels that make homemade pizza actually work. The perfect add-on for anyone with a pizza oven, or a nudge to get one.
Best for: Pizza-oven owners.

MEATER
A truly wireless probe that sends the temperature to his phone, so he can stop hovering over the grill. Takes the guesswork out of steaks, roasts and the Thanksgiving turkey.
Best for: Anyone who grills, smokes or roasts.

Orbitkey
A premium desk mat with a built-in spot for cables and small things. It's a small change that makes a desk feel organized.
Best for: Anyone with a cluttered desk.

Barebones
A heavy cast-iron griddle that goes from grill grate to campfire to stovetop. Smash burgers, breakfast at the campsite, and a lifetime of use.
Best for: Campfire cooks and smash-burger devotees.

Barebones
A rugged, good-looking lantern for the porch, the campsite, or the next power outage. An easy add-on gift that feels thoughtful.
Best for: Porch-sitters and campers.
