Objects
Worth Keeping

Chosen with purpose.

Kept with care.

Selection

Objects should earn
their place.

The best essential items for men are useful,
well-made, and worth keeping.
What a man carries, uses at work, or takes when he travels
should serve a clear purpose.
Material, construction, and regular use matter
more than trends.
Choose fewer things.
Keep what continues to serve you.

The Standard

What you keep should
serve a purpose.

Useful objects should be chosen carefully,
maintained well, and kept
while they still serve you.

Good ownership means knowing
what is worth keeping
and taking care of it well.
