2012 | Best Sporting Goods

Big-box stores have taken over the commerce of everything from guitars to organic foods, and sporting goods are not exempt from the trend. That just seems...wrong.

So why not look for men at a place where health is in the air and the guys are guaranteed to be fit and adorable? Manly men love the outdoors, and Midwest Mountaineering is chock full of them. Saturday-afternoon shoppers can find wool socks, camping recipes, and maybe a new love interest. Another option is one of the... More »
