Bombas Gripper Slipper
Equal parts sock and slipper, the Bombas Gripper Slipper is the best of both worlds. They're made with a flexible, knit exterior with a snug sock-like fit.

We've all got our reasons for chewing gum. It helps relieve stress, curb appetites, and freshen breath. But certain types of gum can also be good for your oral health. quip Gum rises to the challenge. The gum can help prevent cavities when chewed for 20 minutes after a meal, with each sugar-free piece containing tooth-friendly xylitol, and a minty tri-layer crunch for long-lasting flavor.

Solo Stove Pi Pizza Oven
Solo Stove is known for its easy-to-use fire pits. They're now using their knowledge of airflow and flames to cook pies with the Pi Pizza Oven. By default, it burns wood fuel using the brand's signature airflow engineering and Demi Dome construction to provide a 360º cooking surface capable of reaching temps up to 850º. With the optional gas burner, that number goes up to 900º, and the oven can run for as long as there's gas in the tank. Its body is made from stainless steel with ceramic insulation and a cordierite pizza stone; it can accommodate pizzas up to 12" in diameter, with a panoramic opening that makes launching, turning, and retrieving pizzas as easy as possible.
