How are we doing today, gentlemen? With another week of hard work in the books it is now time to treat ourselves to some retail therapy. That’s why I spend hours upon hours each week putting together the ‘Things We Want‘ gear guide for men, so you can buy the best.
This way you have direct access to the hottest gear for men. If you’ve been reading the ‘Things We Want’ for yours then you’ll notice the new look design which is meant to fit more with the style of my daily Everyday Carry Essentials features.
After years of tweaking the format of this weekly gear guide, I’ve found that you bros tend to love the grid-style pictures the best so that’s why I’ve been trying to include more of these days. As always, if you know of a product that you think should be featured in my weekly Gear Guide then feel free to hit me up via email at cass@brobible.com.
‘The Road Home’ Chapter 3 of Little Book Whiskey Series
Beam Suntory Inc.
Ever since tasting the first Little Book whiskey two years ago I’ve kept my eye on this annual release. Last year’s floored me just as much as the first release and now 8th generation Beam Distiller Booker Noe is back with ‘The Road Home’, the third chapter in the Little Book Whiskey series.
As a new father myself (5mo-old son at home!), the story behind this year’s Little Book release definitely hits home:
“‘The Road Home’ is about going back to your roots – literally and figuratively,” Noe said. “With the birth of my son this year I spent a lot more time at home, reflecting often on family and our legacy. I wanted to create something that honored the legacy and values passed down to me by my family. Whenever I drive down the road to the distillery, the same one my granddaddy Booker drove down, I’m reminded of his adventurous spirit, especially of his creation of the Small Batch Collection in a time when no one was drinking premium bourbon. I like to think he passed that same spirit along to me, which ultimately led me to blending.”
Take a look at this exquisite mixture of spirits and tell me it’s not already one of the best blends of the past decade even without needing to taste it. For this, they’ve combined four of my personal favorites, a blend of 9-year-old Knob Creek Bourbon, 9-year-old Basil Hayden’s Bourbon, 11-year-old Booker’s Bourbon, and 12-year-old Baker’s Bourbon. It clocks in at 122.6-proof that’s rich with vanilla, caramel, and spice. You can sip it neat, over a large ice cube, or with a dropper of water.
The Road Home is available nationwide this September for $124.99/bottle in limited quantities. So be sure to keep your eyes peeled for this at your local liquor stores and/or watering holes. You can check out a full press release on this blend right here, and be sure to click that link below for information on where to scoop this up yourself.

Highly Clutch ‘Basics’ Collection
Here we are looking at the newly released ‘Basics’ collection from Highly Clutch. These are some of the absolute best t-shirts on the planet and much more affordable than the competition.

Limited-Edition Budweiser Shirts x Moon Landing Shirts
This special edition Budweiser Discovery Reserve + Highly Clutch collab was born from Budweiser’s limited edition Discovery Reserve, a Budweiser Reserve collection beer that debuted earlier this summer.
An American red lager, it features a light hoppy aroma with a toasted barley malt taste, a hint of toffee and a sharp finish. Budweiser Discovery Reserve was brewed to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the first successful mission to the moon on July 20th, 1969, complete with a taste inspired by an archival recipe from that time in history.
You can now buy the collection via Highly Clutch, commemorating today’s 50th anniversary of the lunar landing. Just hit the ‘shop now’ link below and scoop yours before they’re gone!

6 of the Best CBD Products For Athletic Recovery
The Nanocraft CBD Energy + Recovery Powder is ideal if you’re the tpe of person who would prefer sprinkling a little bit of powder in yoru morning shake (or coffee) instead of a salve or stick. The Pure Naturals CBD Extra Strength Sport Cream is a hard-hitting formula with 500mg of CBD in the 1.7oz container. I’m a huge proponent of this one for overnight pain relief from working out. The Rebel Morning Boost Formula gives you 1,000mg of full-spectrum CBD with lemon zest flavor in a liquid dropper that’s easy to take on the go.
The Common Ground Recover CBD offers up quick relief from a compact rub. I love the ease of use you’ll get with the Nanocraft CBD Pain Salve Stick because you can apply without getting messy. The Elite Dose CBD Oils with Caffeine provides 1,500mg of CBD with a little bit of caffeine in there to help spike your energy each day!

One Eleven SWII Solar-Powered Watch
The One Eleven SWII was borne out of a passion for the outdoors. It is a solar-powered watch that also juices up from artificial light (solar + artificial) with the idea that by creating this watch they’d remove the need to replace watch batteries every several years and thus reduce all of those toxic watch batteries crowding up landfills.
This watch is finished with an extremely durable bio-plastic casing and the rPet strap is crafted from recycled water bottles. Also, 1% of of all sales are donated towards environmental causes as One Eleven is a partner with ‘1% For the Planet.’
