At Fast Company, we write about and review everything from disruptive saucepans to inventive furniture startups. Of all of the innovative products we’ve seen this year, these are the ones we would most like to give—and receive (hint, hint)—for the holidays.
Wrangler Icons 124MJ Men’s Denim Jacket (pictured above)
“I bought the jacket that Brad Pitt wears in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood for my boyfriend this year. The design is the same, but Brad’s vintage one has a zipper instead of buttons—we’re going to take it to a tailor and see if we can get a zip.” —Yasmin Gagne, editorial assistant ($139)
Alessi Moka Espresso Coffee Maker
“This iconic design—which changed the act of drinking espresso from something that you did elsewhere to something you might do at home—has been honored with a permanent residence at MoMA and the Smithsonian. The redesigned version, by celebrated British architect David Chipperfield, is a beautiful homage to the original.” —Mark Wilson, senior writer ($45)
