MICRO FIBER CLOTHS MICRO
Drying a car off after a wash carries the inherent danger of marring the paint
in some way, and many a father has trained his son in the art of avoiding those
minor swirling scratch patterns. It’s something Griot’s Micro Fiber Drying
Cloths helps avoid altogether. The weave absorbs water while lessening friction,
and each cloth measures a generous 16 by 16 inches. A set of six towels costs
$30.

FACOM TOOL KIT
Facom and Ferrari have a long-standing relationship that produces exceptional
tool kits for enthusiasts. This compact, portable set will not take up too much
space in the trunk and includes locking multigrip pliers; combination wrenches;
a magnetic-tip, bit-holding screwdriver; and a ratchet. Ferrari’s prancing horse
adorns the case, which is finished in black nickel. Even if you don’t drive a
Ferrari, the $299 set might prove irresistible. (Click image to enlarge)

PILOTI DRIVING SHOES
These driving shoes were designed specifically for people who prefer a more
low-key look than driving shoes typically provide. Inspired by classic racing
style of the 1960s, the shoes have a heel, a toe, and sides of soft pigskin
leather, and the tongue, toe cover, and liner are made of breathable mesh. The
rubber sole is patterned after vintage Dunlop racing tires. The shoes come with
both white and black laces and sell for $75. (Click image to enlarge)

sculptures reflect an admiration for exceptional automobiles. They weigh over 2
lbs. and have been a favorite gift with Griot’s Garage customers. Imported from
Germany, the sculptures cost $100 each. (Click image to enlarge)
