			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lets face it, choosing the right shoes in no easy task. Aside from complications such as sizes, styles and of course, the right price, there is still a whole lot of considerations in choosing the right shoes. With all this in mind, the team at <a href="http://dudepins.com" target="_blank">Dudepins</a> has put together this list of the best shoes for Men as of 2013. We have taken into consider various styles, trends, looks, etc, and believe this list forms a solid start to a well rounded shoe wardrobe. Take some time to browse, learn about and consider buying the best men&#8217;s shoes &amp; shoe styles as chosen by the team at Dudepins.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>10. The Wingtip &#8211; Cole Haan Men&#8217;s Great Oxford Wingtip &#8211; <a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/?_encoding=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;field-keywords=wingtip%20shoes&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;tag=dudepins-20&amp;url=search-alias%3Daps" target="_blank">See it</a></strong> There&#8217;s nothing like a Men&#8217;s shoe that both is bold, makes a statement and also reinvents the meaning of style. This Men&#8217;s shoe by Cole Haan brings back the classic wingtip look but with a twist of modern style. 2012 and 2013 were big years for the coloured sole shoes and it&#8217;s likely that this trend will continue. Although this wingtip looks great with both formal and casual wear,  it looks especially great with a nice pair of dark jeans worn with a slight roll up. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/?_encoding=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;field-keywords=wingtip%20shoes&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;tag=dudepins-20&amp;url=search-alias%3Daps" target="_blank">Check them out and browse similar styles.</a></p>

<p>Not too long ago, Men didn&#8217;t have much choice as to which shaving cream, balm, lotion, foam vs. gel, etc, etc, they would use. Options were quite limited for the shaving man and selection usually came down to impulse; all this has changed. Most Men don&#8217;t realize that using a high quality shaving cream dramatically changes your shaving experience, yes we just called it an &#8216;experience&#8217;. A better razor and higher quality shave cream means less razor burn, smoother look, less ingrown hairs and, you know it, all around shine!</p>
<p>So let&#8217;s get to it:</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Best shaving creams of 2012 (in no particular order)</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Proraso has been making their incredible product since 1907 and is imported from Italy. This shaving cream is not only extremely effective and good for your skin, it&#8217;s also surprisingly affordable at under $15 usd per tube. The Proraso shaving cream contains a plethora of natural ingredients (menthol, coconut oils, eucalyptus) and is great for any skin type.

<p>- <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FGTTUG/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B000FGTTUG&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dudepins-20" target="_blank"><strong>The Art of Shaving Shaving Cream</strong></a></p>
<p>Common, how can you go wrong buying a shaving cream from a company that specializes in just that, &#8216;the art of shaving&#8217;. Each shaving cream is loaded with natural ingredients and comes with both scented and unscented ingredients; Coconut of mint? &#8230; your choice. The cream is suitable for dry to medium skin and leaves an skin extremely moisturized after use. If you&#8217;re not sold on the name alone, you can be confident in knowing that this shaving cream won&#8217;t do you wrong.</p>
<p><strong>- <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000A5CPJ4/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B000A5CPJ4&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dudepins-20" target="_blank">Billy Jealousy Hydroplane(TM) Super-Slick Shave Cream</a></strong></p>
<p>As Billy states, this shaving cream is &#8220;sharply tailored for today&#8217;s sophisticated bad bot&#8221;&#8230; that&#8217;s a statement and they don&#8217;t seem to be too far off. Already a winner of the 2007 Esquire Grooming Awards, this cream is specifically formulated for the shaving man looking for keep his skin healthy and rejuvenated. Perhaps most important is that this shave cream does not foam up, so for those men looking to trim their beards, or shape their hair in a specific form, this cream makes that easy as pie; seriously how frustrating is it to have to wipe away foam to see that beard..</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>However, </strong>shaving cream won&#8217;t get the job done alone, with that cream you need a trusty razor to do the job. It seems that there is an endless supply of option right now, mach 1, 2, 3, 4&#8230; 5?.. vibrate, no vibrate, gel, foam, smooth, etc, etc. Nevertheless, we&#8217;ve pulled together the top shaving razors of 2012 for you right here:</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Best shaving razors of 2012 (in no particular order)</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>- <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000NL0T1G/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B000NL0T1G&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dudepins-20" target="_blank">Merkur Model 180 Long Handled Safety Razor</a></strong></p>
<p>Not only does this thing have one heck of a name, &#8220;Hey Joe, what type of razor do you use?,&#8230; well, it&#8217;s a &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..&#8221; it&#8217;s also flashy enough to play the part as well. The Merkur comes with a chrome finish, its double edge design provides for an extremely close shave and the extended &#8216;rigid&#8217; handle ensures that your fingers don&#8217;t slip. Better yet, at a price point just under $40 usd, the Merkur Model 180 is a piece of manly art each man should have in his collection.</p>
<p><strong>- <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003NTHWLU/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B003NTHWLU&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dudepins-20" target="_blank">Parker 99R  - Long Handled Butterfly Open Double Edge Razor</a></strong></p>
<p>Another mouthful yes, but it&#8217;s no over exaggeration! Like the Merkur shaving razor, the Parker 99r is also double edged, comes with 10 extremely sharp shaving blades and scales in at an &#8216;extra heavy weight&#8217; (3.4 oz) ensuring a close, comfortable and confident shave each time. The Parker has a Brass frame and is nickel plated, as per the usual Parker shaving quality. This razor also prices in at under $40 usd, so again, almost a necessity.</p>
<p><strong>- <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001F51QZ2/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B001F51QZ2&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dudepins-20" target="_blank">An oldie, but a sure classic each time - Gillette two blade Excel razor</a></strong></p>
<p>Before the days of mach 3, sensor 3, gillette vibrate something or other, was the lone star solder, &#8220;The Excel&#8221; a fantastically simply, yet fanatically accurate 2 blade razor. Still used by many to this day, this razor is extremely accurate, stays sharp for, what appears to be, infinite amounts of time, and really does ensure a close, close shave. Best part is, it is very reasonably priced and almost a steal when comparing quality vs. price. Our recommendation, get yours today and you&#8217;ll never look back.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Masters is on, and if the weather is good, why not join in the golfing season with some friends on your respective golf courses? If it&#8217;s not, maybe watch it on the big screen in your man cave! Either way, the weather is starting to get nicer, the sun is staying out longer, and whether you&#8217;re out on the links or at home, enjoying your favourite activity or sport with a cigar is a great prospect. Here&#8217;s what the big boys would be smoking if they were allowed to light up during the Masters.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Rory McIlroy</span></h3>
<h4><strong>Montecristo Open Master</strong></h4>
<h4></h4>
<p><a href="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/montecristo-open-master-cigars-gen1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1204" title="montecristo-open-master-cigars-gen" src="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/montecristo-open-master-cigars-gen1-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Montecristo created this new Cuban blend for the newer cigar smoker; it&#8217;s a lighter and milder blend than traditional Montecristo, so it gives a medium flavour tending towards milder. A new cigar in an ancient and historic market, just like Rory, a young guy stepping into a historic tournament, also a hot favourite. Rory is the <strong>Montecristo Open Master</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Tiger Woods</span></h3>
<h4><strong>Cohiba 1966 Edicion Limitada 2011</strong></h4>
<h4></h4>
<p><a href="http://www.esquire.es/file_upload/noticias/imagenes/destacada/643x389/272-20111108080018_1072261754.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1200" title="272-20111108080018_1072261754" src="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/272-20111108080018_1072261754-300x181.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="181" /></a></p>
<p>In 2004, Cohiba released a cigar known as the Sublime, it too was a limited edition and it took the cigar world by storm; it got rave reviews and people couldn&#8217;t get enough. Tiger Woods was at the height of his popularity and unstoppable in the golf world. Well people have been looking to re-capture that Cohiba Sublime magic, and, well Tiger has been looking to re-capture that golfing magic as well. In 2011 Cohiba released this new limited edition cigar, and people lauded it as the closest they&#8217;d come to recapturing that magic. This year Tiger is looking to do the same. Expect greatness from both.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Phil Mickelson</span></h3>
<h4><strong>Romeo y Julieta Churchill</strong></h4>
<h4></h4>
<p><a href="http://www.jjfox.co.uk/images/prodimages/100850_1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1201" title="100850_1" src="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/100850_1.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="223" /></a></p>
<p>Mickelson has been around a while, much like the Romeo and Juliet Churchill. Another way these things are similar is that Mickelson just keeps on going, he sticks around and puts in the effort year after year. The Romeo and Juliet Churchill doesn&#8217;t often get lauded as the greatest cigar, and Mickelson has often been the bridesmaid when it comes to major championships. If you&#8217;re looking for classic reliability, the Churchill is for you&#8230; So is Mickelson.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.6em;"> </span></p>
<p>So grab yourself a fine Cuban, get some buddies together and hit the links, enjoy the smoke, enjoy the companionship, and when you&#8217;re not out there gripping it and ripping it, kick back and watch the masters do it at the Masters</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We have done a few other &#8216;top&#8217; blog entries before but we have not yet done one for something as simple as watchs .. that&#8217;s right, everyone wants to know the time and most people wear, or at least own, a watch of some sort. We took some time to put together, what we believe, to be the top ten best watches for men, both in terms of style and price; build quality is also taken into consideration. If you feel that we got it all wrong, or want to add something to the list, just get on over to <a href="http://dudepins.com" target="_blank">Dudepins</a> and tell us all about it, you can also drop us a line on twitter @Dudepins</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>10. Timex Watches &#8211; <a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/?_encoding=UTF8&amp;tag=dudepins-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;field-keywords=timex%20watches&amp;url=search-alias%3Daps" target="_blank">See them</a><br />

<a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/?_encoding=UTF8&amp;tag=dudepins-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;field-keywords=timex%20watches&amp;url=search-alias%3Daps"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-789" title="81mSzPyYVQL._SL1500_" src="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/81mSzPyYVQL._SL1500_-666x1024.jpg" alt="" width="227" height="348" /></a></p>
<p>At under $30 dollars, that&#8217;s right&#8230; $30 dollars, this <a href="http://timex.com" target="_blank">Timex</a> watch is both affordable, features a great design and solid built. If you&#8217;re looking to get value out of your watch purchase, this Timex is a sure bet, that is after all why it&#8217;s on our list of the top ten watches of 2012, it&#8217;s both good looking and affordable. You may also consider this watch as a purchase just to wear on those trips where wearing the Rolex is too risky&#8230;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>9.  Citizen &#8211; <a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/?_encoding=UTF8&amp;tag=dudepins-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;field-keywords=citizen%20watches&amp;url=search-alias%3Daps" target="_blank">See Them</a></strong></p>

<p>Both for the sleek designs, build quality and most importantly, price point, we have chosen to <a href="http://www.citizenwatch.com/en-us/" target="_blank">Citizen watches</a> as the holder of the number nine position. Most Citizen time pieces range from around $100 to over $500 which is in reality a very fair price for what you&#8217;re getting. Simply put, you cannot go wrong buying a watch from this company, as they explain, &#8220;during the last ninety-three years Citizen has expanded its business throughout the world and has achieved recognition as a global brand. The past 30 year period has coincided with the company’s dramatic rise to its current position as the world’s largest watchmaker, a distinction Citizen has held every year since 1986&#8243;.<br />

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>8. Tissot -<a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/?_encoding=UTF8&amp;tag=dudepins-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Atissot%20watches&amp;field-keywords=tissot%20watches&amp;url=search-alias%3Daps" target="_blank"> See Them</a></strong></p>

<p>With price points just a touch higher than Citizen, <a href="http://www.tissot.ch/" target="_blank">Tissot</a> is a great step up in terms of luxury, build quality, design and feel. Tissot offers a watch for almost any occasion, from weddings to clubs and safaris to deep sea diving, Tissot does a good job of providing a great watch alternative.</p>

If you&#8217;re looking to add a timeless timepiece to your collection, you should seriously consider the latest release of the Omega Speedmaster, the watch is built with history, craftsmanship and is one of my personal (wish list) watches..</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>2. Rolex</strong></p>
<p><iframe style="width: 120px; height: 240px;" src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?lt1=_blank&amp;bc1=000000&amp;IS2=1&amp;bg1=FFFFFF&amp;fc1=000000&amp;lc1=0000FF&amp;t=dudepins-20&amp;o=1&amp;p=8&amp;l=as4&amp;m=amazon&amp;f=ifr&amp;ref=ss_til&amp;asins=B00884L67G" frameborder="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="no" width="320" height="240"></iframe></p>
<p>Yup, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/mn/search/?_encoding=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;keywords=tag%20heuer&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;qid=1347332370&amp;rh=i%3Awatches%2Ck%3Atag%20heuer&amp;tag=dudepins-20" target="_blank">Rolex watches</a> made our list.. common, were you surprised. Not only has Rolex been building incredible time pieces for years, it is also one of the most recognized watches in world, it helps that it&#8217;s also built with superior craftsmanship. This specific model, the Rolex Submariner Green Dial Men&#8217;s Watch, features a Stainless steel case with stainless steel bezel, 31 jewels automatic Rolex movement, sapphire crystal (scratch resistant) surface and more for just under $11,000 USD.</p>
<p><strong><br />

<p><strong>1. Panerai</strong></p>
<p><iframe style="width: 120px; height: 240px;" src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?lt1=_blank&amp;bc1=FFFFFF&amp;IS2=1&amp;npa=1&amp;bg1=FFFFFF&amp;fc1=000000&amp;lc1=0000FF&amp;t=dudepins-20&amp;o=1&amp;p=8&amp;l=as4&amp;m=amazon&amp;f=ifr&amp;ref=ss_til&amp;asins=B003WJKQGO" frameborder="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="no" width="320" height="240"></iframe></p>
<p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/mn/search/?_encoding=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;keywords=tag%20heuer&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;qid=1347332370&amp;rh=i%3Awatches%2Ck%3Atag%20heuer&amp;tag=dudepins-20" target="_blank">Panerai watches</a> took the number one position on our top ten watch chart for several reasons, but most importantly because it truly is a watch connoisseurs  time piece. I would argue that Panerai watches are made with more precision, craft and care than Rolex&#8217;s in the same price range&#8230; agree? This specific model, the Panerai Men&#8217;s PAM000298 Luminor Marina Automatic black dial watch, is a shining example of the type of simplistic sophistication that Panerai is famous for. Whether you think that the $8000 USD price tag is justified or not is another topic, what&#8217;s important is that Panerai is, arguably, at the leading front of the best watch for men.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Boots. Whether you&#8217;re a cowboy, motorcycle rider or just an urban living gentleman, boots can be made to fit any style, whether practical or pure fashion statement. There&#8217;s nothing quite as comfortable as a pair of well heeled and broken in leather boots. Here&#8217;s a handful of some fantastic brands of boot, made to last and made for all tastes.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>1. RM Williams</h2>
<p><a href="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/B543S_06_T.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1181" title="B543S_06_T" src="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/B543S_06_T-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>This Australian owned company has been making boots since 1932, and with that history has come a reputation for quality craftsmanship in footwear. Built to last while looking good from the day you buy them, RM Williams boots are practical for work wear and for dress wear. Quality abounds in these boots.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>2. Frye Boots</h2>
<p><a href="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/e1c2690a-fb51-4adc-951e-54aa4d6639f6.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1183" title="e1c2690a-fb51-4adc-951e-54aa4d6639f6" src="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/e1c2690a-fb51-4adc-951e-54aa4d6639f6-240x300.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>From cavalry style boots, western style cowboy boots, harness motorcycle boots or the humble work boot; Frye makes them all, and makes them well. Made in the USA, these boots come in an amazing array of colour, styles and finishes. They make shoes as well, for the stylist looking for a toned down piece of footwear (hey, you probably can’t wear boots ALL the time… right?). Whatever your personal style, you can find a pair of Frye boots to match.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>3. Kenneth Cole</h2>
<p><a href="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/kenneth-cole-reaction-brown-hit-men-cap-toe-lace-boots-product-1-4014790-412504005_large_flex.jpeg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1184" title="kenneth-cole-reaction-brown-hit-men-cap-toe-lace-boots-product-1-4014790-412504005_large_flex" src="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/kenneth-cole-reaction-brown-hit-men-cap-toe-lace-boots-product-1-4014790-412504005_large_flex-300x261.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="261" /></a></p>
<p>Now these shoes make statements. Kenneth Cole is known in fashion circles for dress wear mostly, at the very least; smart casual. You can find the colour you want, the style you want and the finish of leather you want here. Need a pair of boots with a crocodile style embossing to match that crocodile skin hat? Well, Mr. Ted Nugent, we have the pair perfect for you here at Kenneth Cole.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>4. Double H Boots</h2>
<p><a href="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/DH1571-326x446.png"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1185" title="DH1571-326x446" src="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/DH1571-326x446-205x300.png" alt="" width="205" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>You’re a cowboy at heart, right? Sure you are, we all are. Well cowboys are still around, in spirit and in life, and those cowboys, whether corralling cattle on the range, or mustering spreadsheets in an office somewhere, they need footwear. Double H Boots have a really great range of western style boots in a multitude of colours, match that work suit; they’ll just think you’re wearing shoes, but you’ll know you’re a cowpoke at heart.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>5. Steve Madden</h2>
<p><a href="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/2111391-p-MULTIVIEW.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1187" title="2111391-p-MULTIVIEW" src="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/2111391-p-MULTIVIEW-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>Make a #@%&amp;! statement. The boots Steve Madden offers hit both ends of the fashion statement spectrum: they have a clean and slick oxford-style boot, but most of their range is a collection of pre-distressed and steel-stud-covered utility boots. Taking heavy inspiration from the punk rock fashion scene, you can buy two pairs; one pair to wear to your day job, and another to change into and get down the pub for a raucous night of action, Steve Madden has you covered.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Men’s underwear. If you’re going to be wearing something all day, you want it to be a little stylish, a little nice, but more importantly, you want it to be <span style="text-decoration: underline;">comfortable</span>. In this piece we’re going to look at a few of the most popular styles of underwear for men and help you find the best kind to suit you.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Boxers</strong></span></h1>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005CW04CU/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B005CW04CU&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dudepins-20">Fruit of the Loom Men&#8217;s Tartan 5-Pack Woven Boxer</a></h2>
<p><a href="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/914Q+aW8nHL._SL1500_.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1160" title="914Q+aW8nHL._SL1500_" src="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/914Q+aW8nHL._SL1500_-262x300.jpg" alt="" width="262" height="300" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005CW04CU/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B005CW04CU&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dudepins-20">Grab some here!</a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The old classic; made of a soft Cotton-Polyester blend, this old standby style of underwear is still a favourite. Boxers allow you comfort and unrestricted freedom, no confinement, they have a loose and generous fit design, so they’re good for everyone, no need to ‘tailor’ your underwear. The relaxed nature of their design means the fabric never gets too worn or stretched, so they last.</p>
<p>The other excellent thing about boxers is that they’re usually pretty inexpensive, so you can pick up a great multi pack of them for very little. Great with a suit or with jeans, they&#8217;re versatile and adapt to you.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Briefs</span></strong></h1>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003H10NDS/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B003H10NDS&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dudepins-20">Hanes Men&#8217;s 6-Pack Classics Full-Cut Brief Underwear</a></h2>
<p><a href="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/81jZtVi95UL._SL1500_.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1162" title="81jZtVi95UL._SL1500_" src="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/81jZtVi95UL._SL1500_-129x300.jpg" alt="" width="129" height="300" /></a></p>
<p><a style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.6em;" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003H10NDS/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B003H10NDS&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dudepins-20">Grab a few here!</a></p>
<p>Sometimes you say to yourself, in the immortal words of Cosmo Kramer: “My boys need a house!” And he’s right, there are going to be times that you need something a little tighter fitting. That’s where briefs come in. Often suited to a more active set of activities, with no leg sections to them, they allow full range of unrestricted movement; maybe you’re hiking, jogging, working out, etc. The brief means you’ll be ‘secure’ while staying comfy. Like the boxer, this is a classic design, and the fact it’s still around speaks to its popularity.</p>
<p>These particular ones have a 100% cotton blend to them which means this underwear will breathe like nothing else and will feel soft and comfortable all day, perfect for something full of activity</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Boxer-briefs</span></strong></h1>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001M0MMYO/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B001M0MMYO&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dudepins-20">ExOfficio Men&#8217;s Give-N-Go Boxer Brief</a></h2>
<p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001M0MMYO/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B001M0MMYO&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dudepins-20"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1163" title="91Psf3VF2qL._SL1284_" src="http://blog.dudepins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/91Psf3VF2qL._SL1284_-300x282.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="282" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001M0MMYO/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B001M0MMYO&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dudepins-20">Grab a pair here!</a></p>
<p>The best of both worlds! This style gives you some great fitted comfort while not constricting you, the best designed boxer brief underwear will make you feel like you’re not even wearing it, not as loose and rumpled as a boxer, but not as confining as a pair of briefs.</p>
<p>These ones sport some excellent features and advanced technology in the world of undergarments! Made of a 94%/6% Nylon-Lycra blend, they dry fast so you can chuck them in the wash and have them dry in minutes without even needing the clothes line, with anti microbial properties the fabric will keep bacteria at bay, leaving the underwear fresher for longer. And finally, with a wicking action woven in, they’ll keep you dry and comfortable no matter what you’re doing. Perfect.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you’re looking for watches, especially watches online, typing “men’s watches” into Google is going to return you way too many results to be useful, so to help you cut through the online watch jungle, we’ve come up with a list of ten best ones, and the best part is; they won’t break the bank. No Rolex watches or Omega watches here, but they still look fantastic! Let us help you find the watch that&#8217;s right for you.</p>

<p>Minimalist. Simple. Classic. This watch doesn’t have much to it, doesn’t NEED much to it. You’ve got the time, you’ve got the date, laid out on a simple and clear black dial, and it’s what is NOT on the watch face that will draw people’s eyes. Simply be different.</p>

<p><strong>Beer Mittens:</strong></p>

<p>Most of us don’t live in some place like Hawaii or Mexico where shirts are optional and a cold beer outdoors is never a question, only an answer of, “hell yes.” Of course there are still times like when we want to enjoy and ice-cold beer in our backyards or even somewhere in the wilderness when it’s freezing outside. As long as if we’ve got our mittens, it’s no problem. WRONG! Beer bottles and mittens do not mix. You’ll end up feeling like a desperate bear trying to guzzle down a bottle of beer. Those Coca Cola polar bears don’t count because, yeah, they’re not real! So to solve this devastating problem beer mittens have been invented. All you have to do is slip them on and slide an ice-cold beer into the pocket. It’s so easy you might even forget about it and start walking around with an empty beer bottle in your beer mittens. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005IGW30G/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B005IGW30G&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=dudepins-20" target="_blank">Buy it here.</a> $29.99</p>

<p>What is a beercade you ask? It’s a beer dispensing arcade machine. This machine was created for an advertising campaign for Big Boss Brewing Company. We love to compete just for the hell of it, so when you bring beer into the picture you’ve got a major throw-down. The winner of the digital fight wins a 16 oz cup of beer. It’s too bad the beercade isn’t available for purchase, as it would be a terrific addition to any <a href="http://blog.dudepins.com/mans-cave-ideas-mancaves/">man cave.</a> Watch the Big Boss Brewing advertisement with the glorious beercade <a href="http://hiconsumption.com/2013/02/beercade-the-last-barfighter-beer-dispensing-arcade-machine/">here</a> and dream about the day they sell these on Amazon. Beer is worth fighting for, and yes, its a necessity.</p>

<p>2005 saw the release of this big time summer blockbuster, starring Jamie Foxx, Jessica Biel and Josh Lucas. Filmed by Rob Cohen of <em>Fast and the Furious </em>and <em>xXx </em>fame. Surely it would just be another action heavy, slightly mindless summer flick that would make everyone a bunch of money and slip out of our minds within weeks? Well, one of those things happened.</p>
<p>The film cost just over $135 million to make (not including the advertising budget, which for films like this, with such a wide release, is typically large) but only made a little over $13 million in its opening domestic weekend. Box office numbers sharply dropped after that, leaving it with a total box office intake for the US and Canada of $44.8 million. This movie lost the studio almost $100 million dollars. And for perspective, if you think that’s a lot of money, this is the FIRST entry on our list…</p>
<h1>Sahara (2005)</h1>
<p><iframe width="727" height="409" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/VvA4Tbjk8tk?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>When is a film that picks up $120 million at the box office, considered a total flop? When the film cost $240 million dollars to make. That’s when.</p>
<p>This summery adventure film starring Matthew McConaughey, Penelope Cruz and Steve Zahn was based on a novel by Clive Cussler, and featured in an exposé by the Los Angeles Times about how Hollywood films could cost so much and make so little back. Some truly excellent examples coming out of that piece were hundreds of thousands in bribes to the Moroccan government and a plane crash scene that cost $2 million dollars, and ended up on the cutting room floor.</p>
<p>This film is an oddity in the list as it was neither a complete critical failure, nor did it make a small amount of money. If only it hadn’t cost twice as much as it made…</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<h1>The Adventures of Pluto Nash (2002)</h1>

<p>Eddie Murphy used to be a huge star. In the 80s and early 90s, he was easily one of the most popular comedic actors working in Hollywood and very bankable. However this film will go down as being among the top movie flops of all time and rightly earns its place on this list.</p>
<p>With a script having originated in the 1980s, floating around Hollywood for years and then, even after having been completed, sitting on a shelf for two years before being released, you can get an idea of just how little faith was held in this project. After pouring a huge portion of the budget into visual effects and then having the film sit for two years, by the time it as released, any impact the visuals may have had, looked dated and stale, negating their worth.</p>
<p>The film cost over $120 million dollars to produce and advertise, adjusted for today, that’s over $150 million. The movie’s total domestic box office came in at a measly $5.5 million adjusted dollars. It was also panned by practically everyone who saw it (of the few that did), receiving a 6% rating at Rotten Tomatoes.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1>Heaven’s Gate (1980)<em></em></h1>

<p>A money losing film list would scarcely be complete without this classic entry. On the back of the wild success and Oscar glory of <em>The Deer Hunter</em> in 1978, director Michael Cimino took on this ambitious project, an epic Western set in the late 19<sup>th</sup> Century.</p>
<p>Director Cimino and the studio, United Artists, publicly clashed numerous times over the production of the film, with the budget ballooning and delays increasing, the studio feared they would not meet their deadline. Stories of Cimino requiring up to 50 takes of some scenes and making seemingly outrageous demands surrounded the production; one anecdote has Cimino, after having an entire street built exactly has he had specified, demanding it be torn down, as it didn’t “look right”, and instead of having one half torn down and the street widened (his main issue) six feet on one side, he demanded it all be destroyed and rebuilt 3 feet wider on both sides.</p>
<p>The initial budget for the film was $11.4 million, which by end of shooting had become $44 million. To put this in perspective, the total budget if filmed today, would have been $152.7 million dollars.</p>
<p>Its total domestic box office was only $3.4 million, adjusted; this would have been $11.8 million. Heaven’s Gate lost the studio over $140 million and caused not only United Artists to have to sell itself to MGM, effectively ending its life as a studio, but also meant Westerns, which had been popular since the 1960s, ceased to be made in any large capacity until <em>Dances With Wolves</em> and <em>Unforgiven</em> (1990 &amp; 1992).</p>
<h1>Cutthroat Island (1995)</h1>
<p><iframe width="727" height="409" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/BB4qiiG5_oI?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Everyone loves pirate themed movies right? They’re super bankable and make hundreds of millions of dollars worldwide yes? Well, after <em>Pirates of the Caribbean </em>you might be led to believe that, but prior to those successes, there’s a little pirate film that may have been ahead of its time…</p>
<p><em>Cutthroat Island</em> went through pre-production issues, with its production company Carolco Pictures (producers of <em>Terminator 2: Judgement Day,</em> the original <em>Total Recall</em> and the first 3 <em>Rambo</em> films) in financial woes already and the original male lead, Michael Douglas, pulling out after it was clear he wouldn’t get as much screen time as Geena Davis.</p>
<p>Production woes aside, this film cost $115 million dollars to make in 1995, equating to about $172 million dollars today. The thing that gets the movie on this list, in a starring position to boot, is that it barely made $18 million at the box office, something in the order of $26 million today. Leaving aside costs of distribution and advertising (not calculated into the budget listed here), this film holds the Guinness World Record as the biggest movie flop of all time, putting the nail in the coffin of the production company Carolco Pictures, destroying the reputation of Davis as a potential bankable star and ruining pirate movies for years like Heaven’s Gate ruined Westerns. An epic failure all ‘round.</p>
