Gallery: Wish List: Great Gifts Between $50 and $100, From Earbuds to iPad Add-Ons
Bryan Edwards01softbrew-coffee
__[Sowden SoftBrew Coffeemaker | $60](http://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/sowden-softbrew-coffee-maker/)__ Coffee experts evaluate roasts by cupping—mixing grounds in a cup and then tasting from a spoon. This pot replicates that method, immersing the grounds, then straining them with a superfine 150-micron filter. You get the robust flavor, no spoon required.
Bryan Edwards02hinge-case
__[Logitech Hinge Air iPad case | $60](http://www.logitech.com/en-us/product/hinge-air)__ Most iPad cases only know one pose, holding your tablet at the same boring angle all the time. The integrated hinge within Logitech’s fabric-coated case has a range of 50 degrees and can hold your iPad Air in the best position for whatever app you’re using, be it Google Docs, YogaGlo, or YouTube.
Bryan Edwards03slippers
__[Mahabis Slippers | $62](http://mahabis.com/collections/bundles)__ Most slippers are fuzzy afterthoughts to be rescued from beneath the bed only on chilly mornings. Mahabis, however, excel in any environment. With breathable felt uppers and soft sheepskin linings, these handsome house shoes have a cushioned collapsible heel. Flip them down to lounge, flip them up for ambitious outdoor activities.
Bryan Edwards04fins
__[Da Fins | $66](http://store.mollusksurfshop.com/products/da-fins)__ Whether exploring a coral reef in Java or bodysurfing at Waimea, you’ll need a strong set of fins. These powerful propellers float, so they’re tough to lose in the surf. And since there’s no difference between the right foot and the left, they’re impossible to strap on the wrong way.
Bryan Edwards05wild-style
__[Wild Style Collection | $70](http://www.getondown.com/)__ The seminal 1983 hip hop film Wild Style was stacked with great music, most of which has remained unreleased. Now Kay-Dee Records has remastered those classic breakbeats and pressed them to wax, packaging the 7-inch vinyl singles inside this book of stills from the movie. Fr-Fr-Fresh!
Bryan Edwards06cold-bruer
__[Cold Bruer Coffee Pot | $75](http://www.bruer.co/collections/frontpage/products/cold-bruer)__ The Cold Bruer is our favorite way to make cold-brewed coffee. The three-tiered system lets water ease its way through ground coffee, one drip at a time, in a central chamber. This makes a very delicate coffee, sensitive to the individual flavors of your pricey single-origin beans. Also? The handle is very pretty.
Bryan Edwards07osmo-game
__[Osmo iPad Toy | $79](https://www.playosmo.com/)__ Osmo’s iPad stand and camera attachment turn your tablet into a tabletop gaming system. You get games for spelling, logic, and drawing. The puzzle game asks you to rearrange colored tiles on the table to match the ones on the iPad screen. It’s designed for kids, but adults will have a blast too.
Bryan Edwards08timbuk2
__[Timbuk2 Bikepack | $80](http://www.timbuk2.com/especial-raider-cycling-backpack/423.html)__ This pack is the bike commuter’s very own domestique. It’s got a shoe pocket for your wingtips, a rigid panel to keep your folded clothes from getting wrinkled, and a built-in hook for when you’re changing out of your kit. And it’s covered in reflective points to keep you safe from cars.
Bryan Edwards09flare-saucepan
[__Flare 20cm Saucepan | $82__](http://www.lakeland.co.uk/19501/Flare-20cm-Saucepan) Pans generally get hottest in the spot on the bottom closest to the flame. It took a rocket scientist to come up with a design that distributes heat more efficiently. Made for use with gas stoves, the Flare pans' fins channel heat up the sides—cooking food uniformly.
Stephanie Gonot10watering-can
__[Pascal Charmolu Dual-Action Watering Can | $84](http://www.betterlivingthroughdesign.com/accessories/dual-action-watering-can/)__ This can holds 2 gallons of H20 and is nearly 2 feet tall—but the slim neck and a handle in the base make it easy to grip and tilt. The stainless steellid has tiny holes on one side and a big spout on the other. Twist it one way for a delicate shower, the other way for a steady pour.
Bryan Edwards11ice-baller
__[Wintersmiths Ice Baller | $85](http://www.wintersmiths.com/collections/shop/products/the-ice-baller)__ That visible cloudiness in substandard ice cubes is due to air pockets inside. They decrease the mass of your ice, causing the cubes to melt faster and water down your expensive cocktail. Which is bad. This makes very good ice: slow melting, perfectly transparent spheres.
Bryan Edwards12earbuds
__[Beyerdynamic Earbuds | $90](http://north-america.beyerdynamic.com/shop/hah/headphones-and-headsets/mobile-portable/dx-120-ie-black.html)__ They don’t come in flashy colors, and Miles Davis isn’t on the box. But your ear holes will be glad Beyerdynamic spent its money on audio engineering instead of marketing. A pair of HD neodymium drivers pump out punchy lows and sparkling highs. Use the included Y-adapter to show your friends how crappy their earbuds are in comparison.
Bryan Edwards13burton-lumen-packpsd
__[Burton Lumen Pack | $90](http://www.burton.com/default/backpacks-shoulder-bags)__ Now that you’ve grown up and gotten a big-boy job, you’ll need an understated pack to stow all your office wares. Burton’s Lumen has pockets for a laptop, a tablet, and your fancy Italian sunglasses. The straps on the back will hold your skateboard, just to prove you’re not a total sellout.
Bryan Edwards14pencil-stylus
__[Rotring Pencil/Stylus | $93](http://www.rotring.com/en/stylus/346-rotring-800plus-0350117900181.html)__ You don’t have to be a drafting student to appreciate the understated utility of this pencil/stylus hybrid. Switching from paper to tablet is easy: A twist of the knurled grip retracts the fine lead point and exposes the soft stylus nub. The hexagonal shape keeps the pen from rolling away while you thumb a text.
Bryan Edwards15roku
__[Roku 3 | $94](http://amzn.com/B00BGGDVOO)__ The Roku 3 has become a fixture in our gift guides for a reason: It’s the best streaming box out there. Sure, there’s the universal search, the streamlined UI, and that clever remote with the headphone jack for private listening. But what really helps this box outstream the competition is its massive library of over 1,800 channels.
Bryan Edwards16rumpl-blanket
__[Rumple Blanket | $95](http://www.gorumpl.com/collections/blankets/throw)__ This blanket is made out of the same stuff as a winter ski parka. Stitched from durable nylon and stuffed with synthetic insulation that can go straight into the wash, it’s like wrapping yourself in your comfiest, puffiest downhill shell while you watch Commando on Cinemax.
Bryan Edwards17honns-gloves
__[Honns Gloves | $98](http://www.honns.com/product/logan-croc-noir-men-leather-glove/)__ The co-founders of Honns have spent decades making custom gametime gloves for sports celebs, and their inaugural line of handmade gauntlets are both sporty and skillfully built. The fingers are touchscreen-friendly, and the lambskin gives a nice grip whether you're toting a travel mug or tossing a football.
Bryan Edwards18hue-lux
__[Philips Hue Lux Starter Kit | $99 (TWO-BULB KIT)](http://www2.meethue.com/en-us/the-range/)__ Philips' all-white Lux bulbs don't offer the many-colored psychedelia of its Hue line. But these LEDs—which burn at a “warm white” 2700K, consume 9 watts, and deliver 750 lumens—are brighter and cheaper. And like other smart bulbs, they're dimmable, app-controllable, and ready for your if-this-then-that recipes.
Bryan Edwards19moment-lens
__[Moment Lenses | $99 each](http://momentlens.co/)__ A filter can only do so much for your landscapes. Up your Instagram game with Moment's 18-mm wide-angle and 60-mm telephoto lenses. The wide one increases your iPhone's field of view by about 30 percent, turning you into a #nofilter fanatic.
Bryan Edwards20airlighter
__[Airlighter | $80](http://thebisoncompany.com/shop/)__ All you need to light that barbeque is a match. But what you want is a giant 20.5 inch-long flamethrower that spits 4-inch jets of blue fire to really get those coals going. Bison’s over-the-top Airlighter can also open your beer, and, since this is the future, it charges up over USB. The badass looks are just a bonus.
Bryan Edwards21drone
__[Parrot Rolling Spider Drone | $100](http://www.parrot.com/usa/products/rolling-spider/)__ This baby version of the Parrot quadcopter is a great entry into the world of drones. It’s easy to control with a tilt-sensing app and is surprisingly stable in the air. Even if you fail, the Flying Spider’s giant side-wheels protect it (and most furniture) from destruction.
Bryan Edwards22handmade-bat
__[Huntington Base Ball Co. 1880s Style Bat Model 002 | $100](http://huntingtonbaseballco.bigcartel.com/)__ Modern sluggers usually use bats that weigh fewer ounces than their length in inches. Wasn't always so. Built to 1880s specs, this 34.5-incher weighs 38 ounces—not as brawny as Babe's bat, but beefy enough to turn a meatball into a ding-dong.
