Jarrett Reynolds – Nike Sportswear
5 must have items. These are 5 things that I truly can’t live without, because I’m on a flight to Vietnam, and all of these items are either in my pockets, or in my backpack. To say I travel is an understatement. The trip I’m on now will take me to Tokyo, Hong Kong, Vietnam, and London.
Sketchbook and pen
I picked up both of these at Tokyo Hands (best store in the world) awhile ago. I always carry a sketchbook and pen with me no matter where I go, and these two are perfect. The sketch book fits perfectly in my back pocket, and the pen expands with a click (sort of like the phone in the matrix). I bought multiple of both… once I find something I like, I rarely change.
Rohto Eye Drops
One tiny little drop of Rohto is like a menthol cigarette for your eyeball. These drops are powerful… they wake up you faster than a can of Redbull.
iPod Touch and Bose Noise Canceling headphones
Best combo ever. These two pieces of electronics make 13 hour flights with multiple layovers almost bearable. The only downside is the headphones are pretty bulky, and don’t pack very well. Ipod touch…you already know how good it is.
Head Porter Bag/Ricoh GRII combo
My Head Porter bag and Ricoh GRII work together better than Snoop and Dr. Dre. I’ve always got my Ricoh on me since the moment that Suzuki-san from Loopwheeler introduced me to this amazing camera nearly two years ago. All of the shots on this post are taken (on the airplane tray table) with my GRII. Let me just say this…its the best compact camera on the market today. No one comes close. I recently upgraded to the GRII form the original version, and I’m very happy with all the new features. I picked up this bag in Tokyo about a year ago, and its tough… my camera is always at my hip, and always protected.
Goro Necklace
This is a new purchase. For the past few years I’ve been wanting to get a Goro piece, but hated the idea of waiting in line (for hours) to do so. Well, with the help of a few friends I got to cut the line, and go up to the 2nd story Goro shop. The shop is beautiful, and the craftsmanship on the feather I bought is amazing. I’m not going to take this thing off for a while. This is one of the most special shops in the world, and you should definitely check it out next time you’re in Tokyo.
