Affordable Gifts for men – The 12 Days of Dappered #3

Collar Stays: Wurkin Stiffs Magnetic – $35.00Exuvius Titan Multi Tool – $30.00

12 weekdays, 12 gifts, not a partridge or pear tree amongst them.  And no golden rings either.  The goal is to keep these affordable (which is honestly, tough to define) but still interesting.  At the very least these should be idea starters.  Click here for the previous days.

What it should look like

There’s a current epidemic of floppy & flared out collars surrounding the necks of American Males.  95% of business casual worker-guys either don’t use stays (the stiff plastic pieces that come tucked in your shirt collar points) or they don’t care that most collar stays don’t do much to keep your collar vertical.  A quick solution would be to wear a blazer, but sometimes that doesn’t even prevent your collar from going flaccid.

Getting (or giving) a sturdy metal pair of collar stays this holiday season is a wise choice.  The weight of the stays will keep your collar straight, and a stiff breeze won’t send them flying.

Upgrading to the magnetic powered Wurkin Stiff Collar Stays virtually ensures your collar will be rock solid and upright all day long.  A tiny magnet which you slide on the inside of your shirt connects to the stay tip and locks it in.  The Exuvius multi tool stays are for theMacGyver types who like to live dangerously.  These titanium stays can open bottles, be used as a screwdriver, and come equipped with a small blade for slicking.  They’re like a swiss army knife… only next to your jugular.

Just don’t come blaming me if you slip and fall face first on a patch of ice and go all Clint Malarchuck on yourself.
