Chef and TV personality
A true culinary original like Matty knows the joy (and work) that goes into creating something unique. Take this list and go support these independent businesses that dare to be different.
Work Clock
A clock with a sense of humor and a silent second hand for when you need to focus. Bookmark it for the office Secret Santa.
Roper Kaftan
Not just a kaftan, but a friend who’ll get you through any last-minute emails or headline. Each comfy piece from Red Sky is designed for real life, for real people.
BLK MKT Vintage
BLK MKT Vintage is a collection of Black collectibles — all its goods pay homage to the richness of Black history and lived experience.
10″ Cast Iron Pan
Both aspiring home cooks and pros alike would appreciate the lip of this pan, which Matty designed to maximize real estate to collect sauces as you tilt to baste.
Hot Sauce
This hot sauce promises to be deeper, funnier, and better at conversation than any other hot sauce. Bound to please for palates that are more about flavor than adrenaline.
Vida Cotton Tote Bag
Deliciously roomy, deceptively organized. This tote bag has pockets for a laptop, phone, water bottle—but will also fit a parka or a beach towel, no problem.
Smiley Accessories
Whether it’s a beanie on their head, a backpack on their shoulders, or a set of sticky notes on their desk—something from this collection is bound to also put a smile on their face.
Duet Umbrella
One thing, done perfectly. That’s true of some burger places, and that’s also true of Davek—a company that specializes in high quality, sturdy umbrellas you only need to gift once.
Starter Bundle
Spikeball. Like volleyball, except you can play anywhere. This bundle comes with everything you or a friend would need to set up in a backyard or garage.
Red Clay Large Salad Bowl
Equally beautiful in product and process. MINNA works directly with Women of the Red Clay, a collective in San Marcos Tlapazola, Mexico renowned for their craftspersonship.
Fun Biker Tote
You don’t need a chopper to show love for Town Moto. Champions of the motorcycle community and friends of Matty, they offer top-of-the-line gear, parts, and accessories like this tote.
