adidas Racer Lite – The one thing that makes adidas can also be the thing that makes me despise it. The three stripes can get annoying, but this latest Racer Lite got it all the way right. The subtle three stripes do not detract from the overall slim silhouette of the runner. The combination of textile mesh and suede uppers gives this sneaker the its breathable and lightweight appeal, while the clean white midsole finishes off the look. I got enough running shoes, but if these ever come on the sales racks, I’m all over it.

Element Ronin II – A cheap plastic case can protect your smartphone from bumps and scrapes, but there are few that can do it in style. Element’s Ronin was a big hit in 2013 with its use of hand-laid carbon-fiber, and this year they turn things up by playing with natural materials. This premium iPhone 6 case arrives with an aluminum chassis, suede lined interior, and three different finishes. Choose from the hand-crafted bamboo, supple leather, or premium perforated cowhide.
