Product Review: Man Crates

Good Morning Everyone, 

Today I'm doing a review on Man Crates!

Man Crates is a company that sells items as you could probably guess, for men. Here is the Manifesto from their site: 

Our Manifesto

We say 'no' to ugly neckties, cologne samplers and executive trinkets. We don't save wrapping paper, we don't do ribbons.
We ship brag worthy gifts for guys. Gifts that you can't wait to arrive because you know the recipient will love opening them.
Gifts that people gather round at the office, people following the sounds of wood being torn from wood by the included, laser-engraved crowbar.
We are Man Crates, and we deliver awesome gifts for men.



Basically they have a selection of themed crates with items exclusively catered toward men. Items vary from a crate of jerky to sports items to zombie preparedness. Seriously, this stuff is SO COOL. 

Recently my husband received a crate. Let me just say the packaging was a huge hit with him and my Brother and my Dad.


Man Crates come just as they describe...in a crate...that has to be opened via a crowbar that they send with it.The guys were psyched. 



(Yes it took the three of them to open it, they were trying to preserve the crate since my husband thought it was awesome)


Upon actually getting the crate open my husband was delighted to find that he had gotten the Zombie Annihilation Crate! 




This particular crate contains: 

Keep Evil at Bay:

  • Gerber® Gator Machete Junior
  • Gerber® Gator Combo Axe and Knife
  • Gerber® Gorge Folding Shovel
  • Combination Paracord Knife with Built-in Firestarter

Combat Essentials

  • Zombie Survival Guide (Max Brooks)
  • Zombie LED Flashlight
  • First Aid Kit
  • Duct Tape
  • Spam. Delicious, delicious Spam.


All of the items were very high quality and the guys were super impressed by each one. They were laughing and carrying on and I have to say this is probably the best response to a "manly" gift that I have ever seen! Even my mom was like "Well I know what everyone is getting next Christmas!" 

The tools were very nice and the machete was sharp upon opening. (So make sure when giving this gift that you are aware of that fact!) The axe-knife combo was also a big hit since my husband has wanted one for a while! 

The Zombie Survival Guide was informative and entertaining and of course the can of SPAM was hilarious! 

The price ranges vary on crate to crate depending one which one that you order. Some are higher end pricing but all the items were high quality and once my husband added up each item individually it was actually MUCH cheaper to purchase a crate than all the items on their own! Plus the crate itself is just such a unique and creative concept that is like a gift all on it's own! 

 All in all this was an awesome gift and with the variety of crates that they offer you are sure to find something amazing for the men in your life!
