Things Matt Rubin recommends — running gear, home tech, music, coffee, and whatever else he is into.https://rubinrecommends.com/en-ushttps://rubinrecommends.com/r/yeti-shaker-bottle/https://rubinrecommends.com/r/yeti-shaker-bottle/I'd never liked using a shaker bottle. I didn't love the original, and a newer one with the holes in the top wasn't it either. This one is my favorite. No extra parts, awesome engineering, and durable. I have the smaller size and it's great for protein powder. Highly recommended.Mon, 15 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMTRunninghttps://rubinrecommends.com/r/aeropress-go-travel-coffee-maker/https://rubinrecommends.com/r/aeropress-go-travel-coffee-maker/My favorite travel and camping coffee maker. So easy to bring everywhere and it makes genuinely good coffee. The travel version comes with its own cup that everything stores in nice and neat (the scoop and stirrer). I've brought it car camping and all the way to New Zealand twice and love it.Sun, 14 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMTHomehttps://rubinrecommends.com/r/prism-shores-i-didn-t-mean-to-change-my-mind/https://rubinrecommends.com/r/prism-shores-i-didn-t-mean-to-change-my-mind/This band sounds like they are from New Zealand but hail from Montreal. A mix of "Teenage Fanclub" and "The Clean" (h/t Ryan McGaffigan for that comparison). I've been listening to this song on repeat.Fri, 12 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMTMusichttps://rubinrecommends.com/r/new-balance-rebel-v5/https://rubinrecommends.com/r/new-balance-rebel-v5/Though I'd change some things back to how the v4 was, the Rebel v5 still offers that fast but comfortable ride. I'd love a slightly wider toebox, but overall it's a very fun, great everyday shoe if you can only pick one. And like my joy of the new foam tech in the Mount to Coast H1, I wish the Rebel kept its foam as joyful after 100 miles as it is day one.Fri, 12 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMTRunninghttps://rubinrecommends.com/r/us-mobile/https://rubinrecommends.com/r/us-mobile/The MVNO that I use with Verizon and AT&T. They support all three carriers (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile), awesome pricing, incredible features (international data roaming up to 20GB/month, the ability to switch carriers without losing billing or features, multi-network, unlimited data, and more). If you're new to the eSIM or MVNO concept, please reach out and I can help guide you.Thu, 11 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMTTechhttps://rubinrecommends.com/r/mount-to-coast-h1-road-to-trail-gravel-running-shoe/https://rubinrecommends.com/r/mount-to-coast-h1-road-to-trail-gravel-running-shoe/A fun, fast PEBA-style biofoam road shoe (that should last 600 miles without losing its bounce) with traction that can handle light trail — rail trail, nothing technical. They're called "gravel shoes." I love them for 89% of the running I do here on rail trails and road, and I even like the extra traction on road. The 2mm lugs don't annoy me. Feels like the true Swiss Army knife for most of my running and travel.Wed, 10 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMTRunninghttps://rubinrecommends.com/r/hovvdy-try-try-try/https://rubinrecommends.com/r/hovvdy-try-try-try/From their upcoming record "Big World," out 8/14/2026.Wed, 10 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMTMusichttps://rubinrecommends.com/r/field-company-no-8-cast-iron-skillet/https://rubinrecommends.com/r/field-company-no-8-cast-iron-skillet/I use my No. 8 almost every day for our morning eggs. I love the thing. I recently took it car camping and used it for every meal. Cleared it out and kept going because it's truly non-stick if you keep it up!Wed, 10 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMTHomehttps://rubinrecommends.com/r/brondell-freshspa-bidet-attachment/https://rubinrecommends.com/r/brondell-freshspa-bidet-attachment/It's time, you need to get a bidet. They're incredible, you feel great, and they save toilet paper. This one is the easiest quick install (a Phillips screwdriver, that's it) and one of my top picks for getting started — you may never need to upgrade. It sprays cold water from the wall (not the tank — people always say "ewww," but the water isn't as cold as you'd imagine on the initial spray, and it's quite nice in the summer).Wed, 10 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMTHomehttps://rubinrecommends.com/r/toto-washlet-c5-bidet-seat/https://rubinrecommends.com/r/toto-washlet-c5-bidet-seat/The one you want if you're already sold on the idea and willing to pay around $400. I love it so much I wish I could buy everyone I know one. It's a lot more expensive but a lot more luxurious. Still a fairly easy install, but you'll need an outlet to use all its features — check your bathroom for one (or plan to hire an electrician) first.Wed, 10 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMTHomehttps://rubinrecommends.com/r/sonos-play/https://rubinrecommends.com/r/sonos-play/Sonos's newest portable home speaker with WiFi, Bluetooth, and a wireless charging base. It sits between the Roam and Move. At $299 it's a really amazing offering that can also be added as a stereo pair.Tue, 09 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMTTechAudiohttps://rubinrecommends.com/r/hydrapak-skyflask-speed-350ml/https://rubinrecommends.com/r/hydrapak-skyflask-speed-350ml/My new favorite long run water bottle. An interesting thumb hole gives you more movement and a secure hold no matter how much is left, with a quick-snap lid to easily add water. It's never leaked and I love it.Tue, 09 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMTRunninghttps://rubinrecommends.com/r/ursa-major-fantastic-face-wash/https://rubinrecommends.com/r/ursa-major-fantastic-face-wash/I've used this face wash for 8 years, and I'm never going back. Clean, simple, smells good. I'd recommend all of the Ursa Major products — I also use their gel moisturizer.Tue, 09 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMTSkincare
