NOTE: We are realigning the seasons for this box. GQ Best Stuff hasn’t been consistent with any naming but given their shipping schedule and the contents, it’s clear that this is a Fall box.

Let’s start with a nice pair of socks: Bombas Men’s Performance Running Calf Socks ($18)! Calf socks are actually awesome because of their perfect rise. They don’t easily slip down even when I move around a lot. If you love trail running or you’re just an overall active guy, this pair of socks featuring Bombas Hex Tec construction is for you. Made with proprietary poly/cotton blend yarns, they’re breathable and moisture-wicking. Other features include strategic zone cushioning and airflow ventilation.

Jaxon Lane Bro Mask Eye Gels ($5) gets rid of puffy eyes, fine lines, and dark circles. Its main ingredients include Bakuchiol which is known as a natural alternative for retinol, and caffeine which de-puffs and brightens eyes. I love that these eye gels are clear, plus they’re not too heavy so they are comfortable to wear. There’s no weird scent either. Put them on before watching TV or reading a book, no big deal.

Apparently, the Daily Concepts + Esponjabon Charcoal Multifunctional Soap Sponge ($8) is an internet sensation and I can see why. It’s a multi-tasking soap sponge, which cleanses, exfoliates, detoxifies, and purifies the skin with the help of charcoal. With consistent use, this results in clearer and brighter skin. It looks like an ordinary black sponge, but it works wonders! You can use one bar at least 40 times. Plus, it can be used for the whole body!

Another charcoal-infused item in the box is Frontman Oil-Absorbing Papers ($9). Having oily skin is a bummer, but you can always bring this pack of oil-absorbent sheets to reduce the shine. Just wipe it across your face and you’re good to go. There are 50 sheets in one pack, and the back of the packaging has a reminder not to smoke these papers.

Jason Markk Essential Sneaker Cleaning Kit ($18) gives your favorite pair of shoes a new life, just in time for the new season. It includes a 4 oz. Premium Deep Cleaning Solution and a Standard Brush, which are safe to use on any kind of sneaker material. The cleaning formula is naturally derived, so you don’t have to worry about strong chemicals that may damage your shoes. Meanwhile, the brush’s bristles are durable and firm. The kit comes in a resealable plastic pouch that makes them easy to bring anywhere.

To pair with classic fall outfits, here’s the Oliver Cabell 4mm Cuban Chain Bracelet in Silver – 8″ ($131). It’s made with 925 Sterling Silver coated with Rhodium, with a lobster clasp that makes it easy to put on. I like the color and the style, and it also looks great whether worn alone or layered with other pieces. Plus, the bracelet is water, sweat, and heat resistant.

Brickell Men’s Acne Controlling Spot Treatment ($20) is a great way to keep zits and blemishes away. The formula contains salicylic acid and other acne-fighting ingredients, plus it’s easy to use since you only need to apply a small amount onto the affected area. No complicated steps. However, it’s not recommended to be used more than twice because it might irritate the skin.

There’s also a fragrance sample in the box! Commodity Moss Expressive Fragrance ($25) offers a fresh and earthy scent that’s reminiscent of a leisurely walk in the woods on a beautiful fall day. Scent notes include oakmoss, cedarwood, and petitgrain. As for the fragrance’s longevity, I’m also impressed because it lasts all day but it isn’t overpowering!

Whether you love to work out or go on outdoor adventures, these sticks of Liquid I.V. Hydration Multiplier ($4.59) will be useful in keeping you hydrated. These electrolyte drink mixes come in three flavors: strawberry, lemon ginger, and tangerine. Just mix each stick with 16 oz of water and you can already quench your thirst while getting more electrolytes compared to regular sports drinks plus five essential vitamins including vitamins B3, B5, B6, B12, and C. I like all flavors and they are indeed refreshing. They are travel-friendly as well.

Also included in the box is a redemption card for Goodlife Clothing Terry Crew Sweatshirt ($98)! Subscribers will only be able to redeem the sweatshirt in black. It’s an ideal fall clothing piece, and it’s also versatile because you can wear it anywhere, from the office to the gym.

This was a great box overall with mostly fall essentials, mixed with other stuff I can use year-round. From skincare to grooming, personal care, lifestyle items, and accessories, this editor-approved curation makes a nice way to welcome the season and sample new items that help me level up my daily routines. The box also gives subscribers great value for their money – the redeemable sweatshirt alone is valued at almost twice the price you pay for the entire box!

GQ Best Stuff Box is a quarterly subscription box that features GQ editors’ tested and loved items like electronics, grooming products, and man-friendly accessories. All boxes are valued at over $200 each and a total of over $800 value per year!
