The big game generally goes down one of two ways: either you’re the guy with the TV and the snacks, or you go to the house of the person that has the TV and the snacks. The point is, you’re probably going to be spending most of the day on... continue...
We’ve been known to enjoy a beer or three on occasion. Seeing as how this is Cool Material after all, it should come as no surprise that we have a pretty expansive collection of openers at our disposal. Some beers call for knuckles, others for knives... continue...
There is no greater simple pleasure in life than getting home from a hard day at work and cracking a cold one. If you’re anything like us, you try to stay away from the twisties as much as possible and that means you need a bottle opener. Rather... continue...
We wouldn’t trade our friends for anything in the world. With that said, when it comes time to pick up the check it seems like the same few guys always conveniently have to go to the bathroom or “just ran out of cash.” You could solve... continue...
Here at Cool Material, we don’t screw around when it comes to drinking. Round these parts, the only thing as serious as payday is happy hour. When your boss is picking up the tab to fill the fridge that conveniently fits thirty Fat Tires, you can... continue...
Opening beer bottles is like putting gas in your car. It’s time consuming and a relatively boring affair. We know, we know, it only takes like five seconds to open a beer, but if you open approximately three to seven beers per night that’s... continue...
You can learn a lot about a man by the tools he keeps. If you want to learn about guys in general however, running into open garages and rifling through toolboxes is probably a poor way to run a case study. To see where we’re at as a society and... continue...
In addition to our watch addiction, we have a thing for bottle openers. We generally pass on the talking cartoon characters and ones that look like body parts (only because we still have so many from college) and only seek out stuff that’s really worth... continue...
We’ve never been the type of people to prevent someone from starting their happy hour a few hours early, but we’re not the type of people signing your paycheck either. If you need a piece of hardware capable of poppin’ bottles and staying under... continue...
The “proper” utensil goes pretty much as follows: fish fork, dinner fork, salad fork, (insert plate here), service knife, fish knife, and then soup spoon. To hell with that. Do you honestly need half of those utensils? Of course not. Unless... continue...
Traffic sucks. Running sucks. Unfortunately, people still need to get places and exercise, which is where the bike comes in. Any bike will get you from point a to point b with some amount of physical exertion, but you still have to look good in the process.... continue...
In addition to our watch addiction, we have a thing for bottle openers. We generally pass on the talking cartoon characters and ones that look like body parts (only because we still have so many from college) and only seek out stuff that’s really worth... continue...
Most days you get home, grab a beer, find the remote and proceed to settle into the crevice your ass has formed in the couch. Guys have been doing it since Don Draper days and the only thing that has really changed is now we might grab a micro-brew and... continue...
We hate how much stuff we have stored on our keychain. We go to strip it down constantly but we always end up losing something we needed, so we are left with this odd lump in our pocket like something is growing beneath our pair of jeans (and no we... continue...
Carrying around a DSLR has been the biggest sticking point to why some of us have never purchased one. Heck, a lot of guys we know won’t even buy a point-and-shoot because they’ve got a less bulky version called an iPhone. But, when Pentax... continue...
