We all have that one guy on our lists who’s impossible to shop for because he seems to already have everything. And there’e nothing worse than getting a very lackluster response to something that you spent time and money to gift. (“Wow. Thanks. This is great,” he said with a forced smile.) So we’ve compiled a list of gifts for the guy who has everything. Keep in mind, this is assuming the giver has an unlimited budget. We can dream, can’t we?
The Power Nap Capsule
Inspired by NASA studies demonstrating that napping can improve reaction time by 16% and concentration by 34%, this is the power nap capsule that provides a spacious, semi-enclosed sleeping environment ideal for recharging the mind and body. Drawing on extensive physiotherapeutic research, the mattress's undulated shape places your head and legs slightly above the lumbar region to relieve pressure on the back, encourage proper spinal alignment, improve circulation, and facilitate optimal relaxation. Made from supple calfskin leather and filled with 6"-thick cold foam, the mattress contours to the shape of your body and provides a soft yet supportive surface free of pressure points. The sleep surface is 12" longer than a king size mattress, ensuring ample room for outstretched limbs. The frame and canopy create a personal, semi-enclosed napping space that can help you block out distracting sounds and sights.
