Sous vide sounds fancy but it’s simply a cooking method where food is vacuum sealed and then submerged in a temperature-controlled water bath for a chunk of time. It’s great for making ultra-tender meat that requires very little babysitting and is almost impossible to mess up. The most important part of the process is the circulator, a tube-shaped device that clamps to the side of a water-filled pot and heats and maintains the water to a precise temperature. The Turbo is an excellent tool for the job, and one of the most compact sous vide devices available. A streamlined app walks cooks through every step of the process, and an intelligent system keeps everything consistent while cutting standard sous vide times in half

One of Fatherly’s Sneaker Hall Of Fame winners, the Adidas Stan Smith a minimalist masterpiece. All-white save for a dash of color on the heel, the Stan Smith swiftly transcended its roots as a performance shoe in the ’80s, as technical sportswear began to rise in popularity. Instead, the Stan Smith became a street style staple, sported by celebrities and everyday folk alike, with early adopters in the former camp including David Bowie and John Lennon. Fortunately, they remain popular and ubiquitous. It’s an affordable sneaker that every man should own.

Dominique Ansel is a modern-day Willy Wonka. Sure, his medium is pastry, not chocolate but he’s responsible for such culture-sparking creations as the Cronut, the Frozen S’more, and the Cookie Shot.

There are rain jackets and then there’s Patagonia’s Storm Racer Jacket. This lightweight breathable jacket is built for mountain running — meaning it breathes, can zip over a small pack or vest, and can hold up to the worst weather. For an everyday rain jacket, it’s absurdly over-engineered in the best way.

Both budding collectors and tried and true record obsessives will appreciate a subscription to Vinyl Me Please.

Forsake’s Halden boot is a true hybrid – a hiking boot that’s tough enough to handle the trails, but stylish enough to double as an in-town sneaker.

It also features the brand’s anti-microbial band that helps capture sweat and keep your forehead from looking like a pimply topographical map.

Enjoy fancy olive oil, or know someone who does? This organic, hand-harvested Sicilian stuff is one of our favorites. It’s a great workhorse oil, but is especially excellent for finishing.

You probably know Thule for its extremely high quality running and biking strollers, but this brand’s luggage options carry over that attentive and sophisticated design. This is luggage that rolls, packs, and organizes everything like a dream.

Because exercise equipment has a way of proliferating and is generally ugly, at-home workouts tend to require a sacrifice of one kind or another. The possible lone exception is the rowing machine: Rowing works 86 percent of the body’s muscles and can be as cardio-intense (or mellow) as you like, while improving joint flexibility. One of the newest and sleekest rowing machines, the Ergatta uses actual water resistance, which makes it as effective as it is quiet (as well as cool-looking, with its transparent reservoir). It’s got all the fitness potential of a traditional rowing machine, but packaged with cutting-edge, immersive technology (a reasonable $29/month) that keeps monotony at bay. The jewel in the crown, though, is its design: Handmade of cherry wood, it's the farthest thing from an eyesore, and it can be folded up and stowed away, so it works in even the tiniest of homes.

The one thing you don’t want to do is crash a $1,000 drone, so the Air 2S makes adjustments on the fly using four sensors that detect obstacles, so even amateur pilots can get killer shots or video.

The tracking feature locks in on a person’s face, following them as the drone flies on autopilot.

It’s available in dark blue and gray and, last but not least, made with bluesign-approved materials which are harmless to the environment.

One of the smartest projectors we've ever seen, The Freestyle is engineered to make setting up a movie night as simple as possible.

Just looking at this hammock drops your diastolic blood pressure. String this version up between two trees, or on a stand, and the generous 55-x-82-inch hammock will cradle him with an open back that prevents sweating in the summer heat.
