Duke Cannon Father's Day Gift Guide
Duke Cannon's Father's Day lineup leans into the brand's familiar formula of oversized grooming essentials, military-inspired packaging, and unapologetically rugged scent profiles, but beneath the tongue-in-cheek attitude sits a genuinely practical collection of daily-use upgrades. The gift guide ranges from heavyweight Big Ass Bricks of Soap and bourbon-forward beard care to colognes, tactical shower bundles, and shave kits built for dads who prefer utility over luxury-brand vanity. Everything arrives wrapped in Duke Cannon's signature blue-collar aesthetic, balancing humor with legitimately solid formulations made for hard-working skin, dry hands, and low-maintenance routines. It is less about reinventing grooming and more about turning everyday basics into something that feels giftable, durable, and distinctly masculine.

RiseGuide

Built into RiseGuide's Charisma Mastery program, the feature feels less like another passive self-help tool and more like a speaking coach that fits in your pocket, helping users sharpen clarity, cadence, and presence through real-time analysis and repetition.

Cost of Living on the Moon
If you think the cost of living in cities like New York or San Francisco is expensive, look at the yearly rent for a piece of prime lunar real estate.

Wendover Productions breaks the cost of a year on the Moon down, and looks at how commercial spaceflight could help make it relatively affordable.

Brixton Board Shorts Collection
Built for long days that start in the surf and end somewhere near the bar, Brixton's latest trunk lineup balances heritage styling with modern performance without leaning too hard into either. The Blitz Boardshort is the more aggressive option, a lightweight stretch trunk cut from quick-dry polyester and spandex with a water-repellent finish, invisible zip pocket, drainage eyelet, and bold graphic treatments that push beyond the standard washed-out beach palette. Available in both 19-inch and 21-inch outseams, it is engineered to move cleanly from paddle-outs to pool decks with minimal fuss. Countering it is the Classic Trunk 17", a stripped-back staple with clean lines, minimal branding, and an easy shorter cut that feels rooted in vintage surf culture while still delivering dependable quick-dry performance. Together, the collection hits the sweet spot between technical utility and everyday wearability, exactly where Brixton tends to do its best work.

Equal parts refreshing and performance-minded, Vita Coco bridges wellness and lifestyle with an easy-drinking formula that feels just as at home in a gym bag as it does beside a rooftop pool, making it one of the smartest ways to stay cool when temperatures refuse to cooperate.
