Pose Camera Case and Stand

Social networking is fantastic, but it has one critical downfall. It’s not privacy. It’s not the smorgasbord of choices and the regurgitated content. It’s not even the video of the half in the bag karaoke performance of “Don’t Stop Believin’” that you and ten of your closest college buddies made the mistake of recording. No, it’s the MySpace picture. The one with the outstretched arm that eats half the screen and leads directly into a potentially pouty face and aviator sunglasses. Cameras$24 already come with self-timers, but that means finding somewhere to set it that’s the proper height, angle and level to get a quality shot. In other words, if you’re out and about you’re basically screwed without a tripod. With Pose, the camera case turned gorillapod, you can turn bike frames, railings and otherwise lumpy surfaces into the perfect assistant. Pose just put the final nail in the MySpace coffin.

Barrett Alley Leather Disciple Wallet

Wallets are like opinions (or is it assholes?), everyone has one and everyone thinks theirs is the right one. Unless you’re already sporting a wallet from Barrett Alley, you might just be in the wrong on this one. There are plenty of reasons that a leather envelope capable of holding your cards and cash is exactly what you need (it looks good, it ages like a fine scotch), but everything starts with the materials. The Disciple Wallet is made of Horween shell cordovan which starts as the subcutaneous layer of the hindquarters of the horse—otherwise known as the unobtanium of leather materials. What that means to you is that it will never need oil or wax because it conditions itself over time. Each wallet is handmade in the US and individually signed and numbered. It’s like carrying a wallet made out of the interior of a Bentley. $165
