  15. I love the Filson+Apolis messenger briefcase! These guys are so amazing- I went to college with the Parton brothers. They really are quality people with a heart for social justice.

  16. Oh my! I would get a nice big bag for travel, a belt for my guy and some cook books.
    Thanks for the great giveaway!

  17. Always craving a canvas tote for the spring time! I’m always carrying way more than I can handle from my apartment to my office… it would be nice to have a new bag to help out!

  18. While I would absolutely pick a garden bag for myself, I am positive my beau would look dapper in one of those beautiful button downs.

  34. I would love the Courier bag in white and the wine tote! Or maybe I would be nice and use it for something for my husband…

  35. The travel blanket looks like it would be an amazing addition to any household. I can see myself using this blanket for a multitude of things – spread out on the lawn in Prospect Park for a spring picnic, cozying up with my husband on the couch on a cold winter night, or wrapped around my shoulders in front of a beach side bonfire on a chilly evening by the ocean later in the summer.

  36. I like everything but I love these things to travel: Heritage Leather + Apolis Mason Courier Bag, Transit Issue Luggage Tag and Peru Travel Blanket.

  45. I love the Los Angeles Market Bag or the Heritage Leather and Apolis Mason and Courier Bag! So beautiful and classic.

  46. I love the Los Angeles Market Bags. Perfect for our no more plastic bag laws in LA. We should have reusable bags anyway. Super cool bags, a plus.

  54. I wish the market bag came with those baguettes. I also really love the co-op leather sandal. Just because they’re meant for guy feet doesn’t mean I can’t wear them.

  55. So many fun choices! For me, it’s a toss-up between the Alpaca Bundle and the Transit Issue Waterproof Nomad Journal & Space Pen Bundle. I’m an enthusiastic note taker! Cheers.

  168. Thank you for the introduction, I hadn’t met Apolis before. I must admit this was a tough challenge as their aesthetic of raw elegance is evident across their entire range. A soft touch for accessories, I vote for their Peru travel blanket, polka dot pocket squares and the bundle of 3 Apolis/Kinfolk Garden Bags (one for me, one for my sister-in-law and one for a dear and stylish friend – while none of us are huge gardeners in the inner city of Sydney – we all picnic and dream big.

  169. How grand would it be to win? I have a special friend (ok, husband) who is in much need of an alpaca shawl cardigan and oxford/denim bundle. He is extremely hard-working and self-sacrificing and deserves to splurge on something beautifully and ethically crafted that’s made to last. Thanks for the chance. *crossing fingers*

  170. Having spent some of the Southern Hemisphere’s winter months in Patagonia, I’ve grown pretty fond of just about anything made from alpaca, which is so much softer than sheep’s wool. It’s great to see how many options are available in global retail these days; I love the co-op alpaca crew neck sweater.

  171. I love the external pockets on the Apolis + Kinfolk Garden Bag. I like to keep everything organized and close at hand when I’m out and about.

  172. I love the market bag too, so fabulous when stuffed with local veggies!
    Thanks for sharing this site, it’s new for me and my husband might be in for some fancy new treats from here!

  173. Thanks for introducing us to Apolis. I’ve signed up to be on their email list. Love the clean, no-frills aesthetics. Tough to pick a favorite — all so well-curated. But if I have to, it is the Heritage Leather + Apolis Mason Courier bag in navy. Thanks!

  174. My husband’s birthday is coming up and I would love to get him a french work jacket. The linen ties and bandanas are great too.

  175. I’m really digging the “Market Bag” collection. Now that you are required to bring reusable bags at markets in LA, I’m all carrying a cute bag for my delish groceries!

  176. I love the “Global Citizen” shirt collection! But for a more specific item, i think i like the Philanthropist Briefcase best.

  177. The candles look fantastic. Manly and musky candles are always a win in my book. And the hubby would look smashing in those sweaters. Lovely brand!

  184. We just had our first little baby last week and I would love love love to get a little treat for my husband. He was (and always is) so wonderful.

I think he would really love the waxed french work jacket,. thanks ohjoy! love your blog and your instafeed!! 🙂

  185. I really, really love that Heritage Leather + Apolis Mason Courier Bag. It’d be perfect for lugging notebooks and papers home from school (teacher life) or for weekend trips. The trouble would be picking a color combination. I’d be afraid of taking that beautiful white bag to school, but it’s definitely my favorite.

  186. I’m slightly obsessed with the Apolis + Scribe Wine Tote. Since I live in San Francisco, I am always in need of as many totes as possible!

  195. My husband and I kind of need the luggage tags (in natural), so that’d be a nice gift, but I think he’d also like their linen scarfs, and one of their candles would round the Vday gift out.
