Specific Items

These are individual things that have caught my eye in no particular order.

Beard Trimmer
Anything with a good set of guard sizes, a resharpenable blade, and a decent battery life.
Cards Against Humanity's new sets
Specifically the New Bigger Blacker Box, and the Green Box.
Kyocera Duraforce Pro
A smartphone that you can literally leave turned on in your pocket, put it through the washer and dryer, and pull it back out still running.
New Nintendo 3DS XL
The “new” is part of the model name, not just “I want a new one”. Any colour is fine.
DEFCON Soundtrack
Subtitled “Fear — Madness — Loss”, I'd love to have this soundtrack to the game DEFCON in CD format. I've already got the download version of it, which is slightly different — I'm now looking for the three-track version, ideally on CD or in FLAC format.

Perennial Favourites

Clothing
I'm hard enough on clothes that I'm usually in need of new ones.
Shirts
Short-sleeved button-ups, dress shirts, or “fun” button-ups (bowling shirts, Hawaiian shirts, etc.) — no polos, please.
Size 20 neck, or between 2XL and 3XL — “tall” sizes strongly preferred.
Pants
Black¸ grey, or khaki slacks, or “linesman's” jeans in blue or black. 34″ inseam, 42″ or 44″ waist.
Socks
These knit hose from UT Kilts are absolutely the best socks I have ever worn. They’re cool in the summer, warm even wading through the snow, have enough padding to prevent blisters and just flat-out comfortable. I linked the black ones, but they also have a variety of other colours — I'd be happy with black, grey, cream, or green.
Underclothes
Soft t-shirts and knit boxers are always welcome. T-shirt size 3XL, please, though I can do 2XL “Tall” as well. Boxers… just whatever says it'll match the pants sizes above.
Overwear
I'm finding myself in need of a new coat with more elegance than a hoodie. I would adore one of these modernised haori in wool and ventile, but I realise that the cost and shipping probably puts that out of reach. A simple duster, wool or leather, would be fine by me as well.
Kilts
The UT Kilts Ultimate Modern Utility Kilt in dark khaki or black. Waist size 44, length 24.5; fair warning, my length has to be special-ordered.
Drinks
As always, any beverage you think I might find interesting: I like mead, hard cider, whiskey, absinthe, some liqueurs, and exotic teas and coffees.
Coffee
Mead
Honestly, unless you brew your own or know someone who does, don't bother — the commercial stuff is crap. If you think you've found something that's not, though… I'm always up for a pleasant surprise!
Whiskey
I'm mostly fond of Irish whiskey, although my favourite is Penderyn Welsh Whiskey. Scotch is good if it's not too peaty.
Liqueurs
Irish Mist is always a solid standby; Drambuie is fine; Bushmills Irish Honey is pretty good. I like a pretty wide variety, though — feel free to surprise me!
Absinthe
I'm a sucker for good absinthe. I'd particularly like to try Pacifique Absinthe Verte Supérieure, made and bottled in Washington.
Hard cider
I'm fond of both Woodchuck and Angry Orchard, especially their seasonal or special varietals — I'd be especially grateful for a bottle of each cider in their “Ciderhouse Collection”.
Gift cards
If nothing else gift cards and cash will always be spent, particularly Newegg, Google Play, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or Fry's Electronics.
