Gerber Ayako Knife
Inspired directly by traditional Japanese design, Gerber’s Ayako is about as close as you’re going to get to an EDC-friendly samurai sword.

Nike Air Force 1 GORE-TEX Sneakers
A more ruggedized and weatherproof version of Nike’s iconic sneaker, this version of the Air Force 1 still has all the same style cues as its brethren but with a completely waterproof GORE-TEX upper.

YETI Roadie 24 Cooler
YETI’s Roadie was already one of the best portable rugged adventure coolers on the market.

That means the gap has widened even further, putting this offering at the top of the heap.
Oculus Quest 2 VR Headset
Just as video games are the entertainment of the future, VR is the future of video games. The technology has also come quite a long way, as evidenced by this all-in-one VR kit that requires no external batteries, computers, tethers, etc. All you need is the headset, controllers, and some space.

Apple iPhone 12 Max Pro
There’s no denying that the iPhone 12 in all its iterations is going to be one of the major big-ticket gifts this holiday season.
