Gear Of The Year
Men's Journal|December 2019
AFTER 12 MONTHS OF TESTING AND TORTURING EVERYTHING FROM GRAVEL BIKES TO BLENDERS AND BAGS, HERE ARE OUR PICKS FOR THE BEST NEW TECH, TOYS, AND GEAR.
Gear Of The Year

THE STUNNINGLY FAST EV

The Porsche Taycan Turbo S ends the idea once and for all that electric cars can’t be a thrill ride. This sedan’s electric motors generate up to 750 horsepower as an 800-volt electrical system gets you from zero to 60 mph in 2.6 seconds. Nearly as fast: It reaches an 80 percent charge in 23 minutes. From $186,350; porsche.com

THE KILLER CAMERA PHONE

The three cameras—wide, ultrawide, and telephoto—on the Apple iPhone 11 Pro get plenty of attention, and rightfully so. But what we love nearly as much is night mode, which turns dim restaurant dinner shots into art. Bonus: all-day battery life, thanks to the fastest processor Apple has used in a phone. From $999; apple.com

A Puffy Made to Move

Down’s warm, but keeping loose feathers from slumping requires stitching and baffles, which create air channels. The down sheets in the Eddie Bauer EverTherm Down Stretch Hoodie hung tough with us during backcountry adventures and kept us nice and toasty. $399; eddiebauer.com

Rock Steady Trail Runners

Blasting to the top of Boulder’s 6,843-foot Mount Sanitas has never been easier than in the low-drop, race-ready Dynafit Feline Up Pro trail runners. The quick-lace system disappears, so there’s no risk of snagging, and the chunky Vibram outsole clamps down on the sketchiest terrain. $170; dynafit.com

ESSENTIAL KIT

The Elevated Living Room

Gear that gets the most from movies and music.

1. LG Signature OLED TV W9

About as thick as two Amex cards, this brilliant 65-inch, 4K screen could be mistaken for a framed print. The hookups are hidden in the soundbar, which connects to the TV with a single thin wire. $6,000; lg.com

2. Bowers & Wilkins Formation Duo
