This device from Huckberry falls in the I-wish-I’d-thought-of-that category. The wooden toy propels marshmallows sixty feet and puts a gentler spin on the idea of paintball tag. $99; huckberry.com
Shirt
The fit of this button-down by Taylor Stitch looks universally dapper, but the blue-green hue is the real hero: a true winner for every skin tone and hair color. $125; taylorstitch.com

Maguey Plant
Giving live plants around the holidays can be tricky business—timing is everything. Luckily, Furbish Studio has a line of familiar flora crafted entirely of canvas, such as this tropical maguey, that will last far beyond a fleeting few weeks. $225; furbishstudio.com

Crossbody

Work Pants
It might surprise a few folks to know that the new workwear collection by Patagonia gets crafted entirely of hemp harvested in Bourbon County, Kentucky. Our favorite piece happens to be the double-knee pant, which performs just as well for upland bird hunting in the temperate South as it does conquering everyday chores (or an evening bourbon). $69; patagonia.com
