Growing up is realizing you're not a blunt-to-the-face type of person anymore. It's realizing you might not even be a giant bong rips person anymore. One option is to get a great grinder, good rolling papers, and a beautiful rolling tray, so you can get that old-fashioned feel without committing to something as intense as a blunt or bong. But even that can be too much ritual for some. Still, there's no way you're gonna start hitting a vape. (Kids these days don't even know what weed tastes like.)
So what's the answer? For us, it's a pipe. It's been a classic smoking solution since the first humans tried, tobacco, cannabis, and whatever else they were smoking B.C.E. A pipe makes it easier to portion out your loud, and the best options are not only useful tools, they're beautiful smoking objects for your home. Because let's face it, even the nicest bongs look like something you could have purchased in college. For adult smokers of all stripes, pipes are the way to go. Plus, they make great gifts. These are our editors' 10 favorite pipes for smoking weed.
Sackville & Co Crystal Ball Pipe
Sackville & Co Crystal Ball Pipe
When we talk about pipes being home decor, this is the blueprint. If you keep it clean, almost no one is going to think this is a pipe. Keep it on the coffee table and people will think it's a fancy-looking paperweight.
Crafted with anodized aluminum, this bowl can pack up to a gram, and a double helix design gives you top-tier smooth smoking. Plus, it's easy to clean and will never break if you accidentally drop it.
Honest Path Pipe in Black
Honest Path Pipe in Black
Cross "toking up without irritating my throat" off your bucket list with the Path Pipe. It's like a mini bong, with its own bowl for packing, and a filter chamber that looks like a labyrinth to cool and smoothen the smoke.
Session Goods Pipe in Charcoal
Session Goods Pipe in Charcoal
As a pipe, this cone has a decent sized bowl and a carb. That's all you need, but it also comes with a nifty carry case. Clip it to a bag for a beach trip, park picnic, or any other cannabis-forward kcikback.
Genius Classic Genius Pipe
Genius Classic Genius Pipe
Besides looking nothing like a weed pipe, the Genius design promises a more filtered, flavorful experience than any other pipe you'd try.
Missouri Meerschaum Ozark Mountain Hardwood Pipe
Missouri Meerschaum Ozark Mountain Hardwood Pipe
If Mark Twain ever smoked weed (he very well could've, though history remains foggy on that particular subject), he'd assuredly smoke it from something like this a pipe made of hardwood from his native Ozarks. We're just speculating, but isn't this thing beautiful?
Laundry Day Tanjun Pipe
Laundry Day Tanjun Pipe
On the whole, Barcelona-based Laundry Day makes the best looking smoking accessories out there. Just a lineup of incredibly beautiful pipes, grinders, lighters, and ashtrays. The Tanjun Pipe in the "Honey" color is our favorite, but there's plenty of other design-forward options to fit your fancy.
Elevate Accessories Elevate Mini Hitter Pipe
Elevate Accessories Elevate Mini Hitter Pipe
Not all glass pipes have to be bulbous, indiscreet things. You'll get about three good pulls from this one.

With SensiBox, you can build your own museum-worthy exhibit of glassware. Each month, the weed subscription sends out an artisan-made pipe—these are all exceedingly creative—and thematically related smoking accessories.
Missouri Meerschaum Corn Cob Pipe
Missouri Meerschaum Corn Cob Pipe
I cannot express how dumb you'd look smoking weed out of a corn cob pipe. But honestly, it'd be pretty funny.
