Patagonia Men's Nano Puff Vest - $189
"The Patagonia nano puffer vest is a versatile add to any wardrobe. I have one in black, but it comes in a range of funky colors and earth tones. It basically goes with anything, from business casual to sweatpants. I've worn mine by itself when running to and from the car in winter, or as outerwear in spring and fall. It's super packable, so it's great even for those chilly late summer nights in the Midwest. Philosophically, Patagonia is a brand a lot of people can get behind -- or just buy the vest because it's comfortable and warm. Yes, the vest is a bit of a cliche for a WFH Dad, but hey, it gets a lot of jobs done and it's way more stylish than the 20-year-old baseball jackets I used to rock for school pickup."
JLab Go Air Sport - $19.99 (33% off)
"Going to the gym and working out has always been an important part of my weekly routine and a pair of headphones always accompanies me when I’m sweating it out. The only problem with that is that I don't want to spend over $50 on a pair of headphones that I know will get ruined by how I use them. I stumbled onto these JLab Go Air Sport ear buds by accident and found them to be very reasonably priced at $30. The wireless headphones include a secure ear hook sport design, a clear calling feature, 8+ hours of playtime for each earbud and most importantly, they're sweat-proof. The charging case can provide 24 additional hours of playtime, bringing the total up to 32 hours on a single charge. The integrated cable for hassle-free charging makes it easy to always keep your headphones ready for any occasion. I have experienced some minor issues with the headphones, though. Sometimes they do cut out due to connection and sometimes they slip out of your ear canal when you’re really working up a sweat, but with the $30 price tag (even better when they're on sale) and over 10,000 reviews with a 4.1 out of 5 star score on Amazon, I see no problem buying something that can take a beating at the gym and is easily replaceable when it breaks."
Etekcity Cordless Neck and Back Massager - $59.06 (9% off)
"In this day and age, there are a ton of people working from home or spending the majority of their time sitting behind a desk. Those long hours can take a toll on the body causing aches and pains in the neck, back, and shoulders. This cordless neck and back massager can help with that. It gives you a deep tissue massage thanks to the integrated rotating massage balls that rotate clockwise and counterclockwise to untangle those knots. The cordless convenience allows you to charge the massager in advance and lets you move freely around the house, office, or park. It includes built-in heat nodes to relax your muscles for a stress-free feeling. The Etekcity cordless massager can be used on the neck and shoulders, lower back, legs, and arms. It is currently priced at $64.99 with nearly 4,000 reviews with a 4.4-star rating out of 5."
Assorted Tools - From $29.97
"If you know someone who is always working on a 'project' in the house or out in the garage, you know that there's just no such thing as having too many tools.
