Review: Rockport Wispen

September 14, 2010 /

I had the pleasure of reviewing a pair of dark brown Rockport Wispen shoes and from the time I took them out of the box these shoes have impressed. I knew I would enjoy them the moment I first saw the rich dark brown leather of these men’s dress loafer’s.

The Wispen is straight to the point in its styling as its clean design is elegant and the full grain leather is easy to clean. These Rockports incorportate EVA adidas adiPRENE, which is a highly shock-absorbent cushioning that protects the heel at impact. They are among the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn.

Like many Rockports the Wispen has as a polyurethane sole with flex grooves and a lighty padded collar that add comfort to the sole and heels of your feet. Quality, clean design and comfort are what stand out most on the Wispens and it all a started when I opened the box!

Honey Deuce is the new cocktail for the US Open

September 3, 2010 /

Labor Day weekend is here, and summer is winding down, but that doesn’t mean we still can’t enjoy a refreshing cocktail in the late summer sun.

Grey Goose Vodka, one of the sponsors of US Open Championships, has created the Honey Deuce cocktail for tournament spectators. The drink will be served at satellite bars around the tournament grounds in a collector’s souvenir cup. Here’s the recipe:

1¼ part Grey Goose Original Vodka
2 parts fresh lemonade
¼ part premium raspberry-flavored liqueur
Frozen honeydew melon balls

Fill a highball or double old-fashioned glass with crushed ice. Add Grey Goose Vodka and fill the rest of the cup with lemonade to a half inch below the rim. Drizzle premium raspberry-flavored liqueur over the top. Garnish with frozen honeydew melon.

We have to admit it sounds delicious, and we’d love to be at the Open enjoying one of these drinks. We’ll have to settle for making some for ourselves at our Labor Day picnic.

Gillette announces the ProGlide Ultimate Summer Job Bullz-Eye.com contest winner!

August 16, 2010 /

Gillette sent Jason and Adam around the country this summer to promote the new Gillette Fusion ProGlide razor and hear what the country has to say about getting the perfect shave. Bullz-Eye partnered up with them to offer an iPod Touch & a Gillette Fusion ProGlide VIP kit to the contestant with the most compelling idea of the perfect shave.

There were a lot of excellent entries including this one from Frank Kramerman:

The best shave ever…hmmm…on the banks of a crystal clear warm water spring…Betty White approaches carrying a brand new Fusion Pro-Glide razor anjd a can of shaving cream on a pillow and gently sits down beside me as I foam up and magically stroke the whiskers away while gazing at my and her reflection in the water.

We also appreciated Jeremy MacFarline’s contribution:

The best shave ever would involve sitting in an old-timey barber’s chair, slightly reclined, and it would be delivered by Salma Hayek in something low-cut and with lots of leaning over. There is lots of “accidental” boob-shoulder contact and the Gillette Fusion ProGlide gripped gently between her deft fingers leaves my sideburns even, the edge of my goatee straight and clean, and my cheeks smooth as a baby’s bottom and glistening like a glazed donut.

In the end, though, the winner was someone with a more traditional idea of the perfect shave. To hear his entry, head over to the official Gillette Ultimate Summer Job blog, where Jason and Adam have put together a congratulations video. Thanks to everyone that participated – you guys put together some great entries.

Stand out in the crowd with PillaSport!

August 12, 2010 /

How important are sunglasses? For some they are just a necessity but for others sunglasses are a constant search for the perfect pair and a style statement as well.

Many of us search for the perfect pair with many different needs. For those of you that are athletes, PillaSport delivers one of the best possible sun protectors, vision enhancers, safety technology and overall viewing experience that anyone can find! It’s no wonder that National and World Champions in the arena of skeet , shotgun and other events wear PillaSport glasses. PillaSport strives to Maximize Eye Performance and Minimize Eye Fatigue combined with the Highest Impact Resistance on the Market. A Pilla Lens is made from a bullet-proof lens material, and is used by more World Champion shotgun shooters than any other brand (now that’s some serious stuff here my friends!). There is so much put into the research and development of PillaSport glasses so you know you’re getting the best they have to offer.

On the design side of things Bullz-Eye.com tested the Hornet and the Charlie and I must say both have a distinguished designs. Whether you decide to golf, fly a plane, cycle, shoot , fish or use the glasses for casual use you are sporting a winner. You have the choice of 3 fits and the Lens Prescription eyewear gives you the flexibility to get prescription strength Pilla lenses as well. The UV protection is off the charts and knowing that makes the feel even better! I can’t tell you how many folks commented on the PillaSports I was wearing as the glasses really stood out in the crowd. Once people tried them on they complimented the clear and crisp vision they had with the PillaSports! The design is what first caught their eye but once they put on the PillaSport’s and experienced the clear vision, UV protection and fit they didn’t want to give them back!

Conclusion on PillaSport: State of the art technology, hand crafted in Italy and designs that scream quality and current puts PillaSport on the list for the discerning buyer.

Get a natural shave with Everblade

July 26, 2010 /

Everblade logo.We received some samples of pre shave gel, shave lather and after shave moisturizer from the folks at EverBlade. After using these products several times a few things stood out. 1) These products are really made from a natural preservative system without dyes, or alcohol and is chemical free. 2) You can tell all three products are of high quality and smell really good.

Knowing that this set is about as natural as you will find out there in shaving products combined with the fresh clean feeling you get your day off to a smart start! I really noticed how smooth and moisturized my face felt after finishing off my shave with the EverBlade after shave product.

Granted you will pay more for EverBlade than off the shelf shaving products at your drug store but if you are going for the natural shaving products and want to do your own thing you will probably be happy with your purchases.
