The entire contraption collapses and stores within itself for easy travel. $70 |

Bookman Cycling Shirt This all-cotton shirt is sneaky — at first blush it appears to be a trendy t-shirt, when in reality it is a trendy t-shirt made especially for cyclists. A button flap on the chest pocket keeps items secure; the cuffs can be rolled up to reveal reflective tape; there are strategically placed ventilation holes; a hidden zipper pocket is good for stashing valuables whilst riding; and the lower-cut back section covers your rider’s crack. $91 |

Rimowa x Porsche 50 Years Of 911 Trolley Case Despite what Jeremy Clarkson may think, Porsche 911s are a thing of beauty — especially the 1960s genesis models, those marvels of the roadway that are now half a decade old. Sadly, they’re a bit pricey to pick up nowadays, but this trolley case collaboration pays homage so directly — what with the Fuchs wheels(!), houndstooth interior and aluminum body — that you’ll be air-shifting and making engine sounds while zipping around airports. $1,775 (★) |

Symbol Audio New Audio Desk This unassuming USA-made writing desk is, like the most recent President Bush, a bumpin’ party hidden behind a businesslike veneer. And an exquisite veneer at that: solid oak, walnut, cherry or maple and a retro/mod design ensure it’ll look good anywhere. Slide open the cabinet doors to reveal two 4-inch speakers with titanium cones and a 5-1/4-inch woofer made for big sound. There’s a drawer for cable management, and the system gets along nicely with wireless streaming audio. $3,950 |

Nessie Microphone By Blue The most intriguing business surrounding mythical creatures — Unicorns, Griffins, Centaurs — is that you want to believe they might be real after all. Audio nerds want reliable, effortlessly perfect audio from a simple, straightforward and affordable microphone, which until now has been somewhat of a myth. Nessie automatically adjusts on the fly while you record studio vocals, instrumental tracks, podcasts and more. Three modes include a full manual option, and the cardioid recording pattern and direct headphone monitoring makes it a breeze to use. And those looks… monstrous. $100 |
