Welcome to The Gear We’re Testing This Week. We’re obviously passionate about gear, and we have a lot of it in the office — it fuels our reviews, news and stories every day. Here’s what we have in the office now — what we’re testing, photographing and more. Enjoy.

What’s In the Office Now: Live

Tune in Every Friday

We usually share the cool gear in our office each week, but this week technical difficulties foiled us. However, we do have another video for you. We just published a review of the Bentley Flying Spur S, and we also have a video review of it from the streets of NYC, right here. It’s no Hudson Valley, where the written review took place; but you’ll enjoy it nonetheless.

Products We’re Testing

Scenes from Instagram

From the field this week: Vietnamese coffee, an impeccably designed chair and a gorgeous handmade briefcase.

Sightings from Instagram Stories and Snapchat

Shinola and GE — an unlikely pair — teamed up on a new collection of household items. We got the stylish new power strip (yes, we called a power strip stylish) to test out around the office.

This isn’t really gear, but it fueled us for more gear testing. The world lost the creator of the Big Mac this week; we headed to our neighborhood McDonald’s to pay him homage.
