Kitsbow Cycling Jean – I honestly think all jeans are for cycling, but according to Kitsbow, there is a difference. The rigidness in jeans are great for durability, but can hamper a cyclists’ constant peddling. Kitsbow solves this by adjusting the traditional jean by re-shaping the knee, added room in the thighs, and throw in a little bit of lycra for stretch. The result is the Drifter jeans, a more ergonomic pair of denim for those that enjoy cycling.

Nitecore Tiny Monster Flashlight – Reading The Walking Dead comics and catching the show on AMC has me all amped for the zombie apocalypse. The Nitecore Tiny Monster is the flashlight I want in my survival kit. It currently holds the world record for the smallest and most powerful flashlight with its 3800 lumens. The four Cree LED bulbs and an aluminum reflector means it can light up a 334 meter path, and the aerospace-grade aluminum and hard-anodized finish means it’s lightweight and waterproof.
