Ashworth Driver Cap

The Ashworth Driver Cap is one of those fashion necessities for your days out on the green. You won’t want to take another whiff at the ball until you’ve given this thing a test drive. Boasting a herringbone top, stretchy fabric throughout the body, and the snug comfort of a sweatband around the head, it’s a testament of style and comfort.

Whether you’re the next Tiger Woods (on the course or the club), this makes for a classically cool option that looks boss on the top of your noggin. You may have to dodge accusations of “Hipster!,” but don’t listen to them. They’re just jealous.

Mission Belts

Mission Belts are the popular no holes belts as seen on Shark Tank that use a ratchet system to adjust to the length you need. Though you can buy them in both 35mm and 40mm sizes, they can easily be cut down to the proper size, so it never looks as though you’ve got too much material.

With a combination of convenience and stylish material (with a wide variety of colors to choose from), these items may be the last of their kind that you ever need, but the benefit of buying one goes well beyond comfort. For each Mission Belt that you purchase, a donation is made to a charity that fights hunger and poverty around the world.

AK-47 Money Clip

The AK-47 Money Clip may not be something in which you see Dianne Feinstein carrying around her cash, but it’s certainly a manly and flashy way to hold the green together. The wallet replacement comes plated in 18-karat gold for a lustrous look that will steal all the attention away from the bills they’re holding together.

With any luck potential pickpockets will also take it as a warning that there could be a life-sized, loaded version waiting on them if they try to take what belongs to you. In all likelihood, however, they’ll never even notice because it’s almost too small to see.

iCache Digital Wallet

UPDATE — Readers, sometimes in a hurry to bring you the best products and ideas on the web (and in the real world), we miss things. Things we shouldn’t have. And thanks to reader Ben Allred, we’ve got an unfortunate update to make regarding the iCache Digital Wallet. This link from The Post and Courier out of South Carolina gives a detailed breakdown of why iCache is a bad idea and one you (and we) should now forget about, except for as a cautionary tale. Thanks, Ben, and be careful out there re: Kickstarter projects, people. It’s an agreement between you and the project leaders. KS isn’t going to help you out if one falls through. From now on, we’ll do the same. And if you’ve noticed anything go wrong with something previously featured, we would love to hear about it, so we can keep you updated. Send any news tips you come across to aric [at] instash [dot] com. Thanks, guys. Keep ‘em honest out there!

The iCache Digital Wallet will greatly shrink the size of your regular wallet — in fact, it may even allow you to get rid of it altogether while securing your forms of payment and not running the risk of getting mugged on your way to and from the store. Here’s how it works: you program each of your credit cards, debit cards, loyalty cards, etc., into the app upon purchase by scanning each one through a card reader that attaches to the phone (and iCache phone case) while the app is in use

Zeus By Boxer Watches

Zeus from Boxer Watches is the alpha of timepieces for those of you who are sick of digital screens, digital clocks, and the constant harassment of modern technology. The open face of Zeus represents a back-to-basics approach to time management with a skeleton gold stainless steel material that leaves nothing to the imagination.

The dial is housed in a white stainless steel frame and is kept together via genuine leather band — available in black and brown. The weight of the watch feels virtually non-existent on your wrist in spite of the over-sized face. Part of that weightless comfort comes from the leather band. It’s smooth on the skin and doesn’t bite into the wrist. And unlike other products that proudly boast the brand name as if you’re being advertised to even after the purchase, you’ll have to look hard to find any mention of the Boxer Watches name in keeping with that back-to-basics approach. Here you get nothing but superior craftsmanship. Goes 24 to 36 hours on full charge.

Radiation Detecting Watch

Hopefully, you would never have to use it for the purpose stated in the title, but isn’t it good to know that you’ve got an onboard Geiger counter when you need one. In all seriousness, you can set this Radiation Detecting Watch to pick up on any irregularly high readings. Should you hit that threshold, an alarm will sound drawing your attention to the danger, so you can promptly get the heck out of dodge.

This timepiece measures both single-dose gamma rays as well as cumulative exposure. It also looks bad-a with a titanium case and can do the whole water-resistant thing to 330 feet.

Mini Switchblade Necklace

Need a little touch of bad-ass in your jewelry box? Well, first get rid of the jewelry box. You’re a man! Once you’ve done that, grab one of these Mini Switchblade Necklace items. You can see from the pic that it folds up or pops out with the push of a button.

From there, it locks in to place and gives you a sturdy three-quarter-inch blade that works in most any situation (except a knife fight). In all seriousness, this would come in quite handy if you’ve got a lot of boxes to move or need a nail file on the go (without being seen as the kind of guy that carries a nail file, of course).

Crocheted Optimus Prime Helmet

Roll out, Autobots, in this awesome Crocheted Optimus Prime Helmet from the silly folks at Briabby. You’ve got to admit from the looks of this thing, it beats the heck out of the beard beanie that’s been getting peddled around as a gag the last two Christmases. While it may be late in the season to wear this creation, it never hurts to prepare now for next winter.

Excellent crochet work on this will have your friends mistaking you for the resident Transformers good guy hero the minute they see you. Okay, so maybe that’s a stretch, but if you work on your Peter Cullen voice, you may be able to have them fooled for at least a little while. If you look real close at the image background, you may also be able to see that Briabby has some other cool crochet offerings in case the morphing robots don’t strike your fancy.

Original Grain Wristwatches

Original Grain Wristwatches offer a seamless blend of all natural wood and stainless steel in a sturdy and elegantly designed timepiece that’ll attract more than a few looks. The OG is coming in three starter designs that you see here, and it has also added a beautiful black on black design as well as something for the ladies over at its Kickstarter page (see Buy link).

Featuring a 52mm case, a 43mm face diameter, and a 24mm band, Original Grain Wristwatches offer the essence of manliness. Yours will arrive at your door in an engraved wooden box for safekeeping, though it’s unlikely you’ll ever want to take it off. The company also has some nice swag add-ons if you get by and pre-order yours today.

BAUHAUS Unibody Titanium Key-Carabiner

It’s not very often that we get excited about something like key carabiners, but BAUHAUS is on to something with a unique and beautiful collection of multiple designs for your keys and other light objects. With the BAUHAUS Unibody Titanium Key-Carabiner, you can keep those little pointy things out of your pocket and your legs feeling comfortable whether sitting or standing.

Any one of these selections can cut down on pocket wear that tends to happen the longer you carry keys in your pocket with an average pair of pants. A few are even effective bottle openers. Just make sure you heed the BAUHAUS warning and don’t use these for mountain climbing. No matter how sturdy they look on the surface, they’re not cut out for 200 pounds hanging off a jagged piece of nature.
