This all-in-one men's pampering kit includes three scented bars of soap and a Moroccan cedar moisture cream. It's all handmade right here in Philly, and you'll also find Captain Black's Grog Mints and one very badass rubber duckie inside the cheeky tin.

Think bold if you're going the tie route. This neon number works for both Tuesday morning and Friday night.

Sick of his omnipresent Phillies hat? Your 215 boy can still show his Philly love in this cap, which is guaranteed to not smell like the parade

This stainless steel anchor shaker is for the gentleman who can make a serious drink. And the matey who enjoys one.

We dig the European feel of this lightweight scarf that's heavy on flair. It may or may not result in a stylish accent, but add it to your favorite guy's pea coat or leather jacket for an instant winter style upgrade.
