BAGGU Wetsuit Bag There are few things as indispensable as a good dry bag: you could be carrying around miniature teddy bear lollipops and lavender foot cream and it’d still look like you were packed for a Special Ops mission. But if you’re really putting a bag like this to use you’ll do what Baggu suggests: step in the thing after a day of surfing, strip your wetsuit off, zip it all up and haul it elsewhere to be hosed off and dried (which is exactly how you can tend to this bag should it get a little rank). The vinyl’s welded seams and zippers keep water either in or out — and ne’er the twain shall meet. $120 |

T.W. Pitchers’ Snake Bite Cider Harkening to mind the events immediately preceding and following that first American summer of 1776, this upstart cider has its sights set squarely on the traditional English hard cider. The refreshing mix of light lager and apple cider is only available in the Bay Area at this time, which is a shame — it’s crisp and delightful to drink. But be warned: there is alcohol in there, though you can down it like apple juice. twpitchers.com |

Braven 850 The 850 may be less than a foot long, but it goes the extra mile all the same. The aluminum housing hides multifunction internals — USB device charging, an integrated speakerphone (with noise cancelling tech) and 20 watts of audio output that’ll play for 20 hours on a charge. Wireless pairing means you can daisy chain multiple speakers together for true left/right aural experiences; control your audio tracks via the onboard controls; if you don’t have a Bluetooth device, there’s a line-in jack. $300 |

BNTO Canning Jar Lunchbox Adaptor For the avant garde commuting lunch-eater, this adapter makes quick work of every “I want to carry something wet but also something dry inside this mason jar ‘lunch box’ at the same time” problem you can think of. Want some chips and dip? Whip the dip, slip in the chips. Yogurt and granola? Bunch the crunch, keep the yogurt out of the whey. Probably not good for kids, but extremely good (not that we’d suggest it) for Molotov cocktails. $8 |
