Gift Guides: Back Out There
After two years of staying close to home, adventure is calling once again. The days of vacations, destinations, excitement seem just on the horizon. Make sure that your recipient is outfitted and ready to jump on a plane and go!
For keeping his phone close, no matter the terrain. Grippy, grabby, leashed phone holder. Koala 20.
For keeping her sunnies close - a lovely universal monogrammed leather sunglass strap that is water safe (even saltwater) and made to age beautifully over time. Monogrammed Sunglass Strop from Clayton & Crume.
For sunglasses that come with their own strap - an armless model that is more comfortable under helmets and promises not to slip or fall off in any difficult to navigate situations. Ombraz Classics.
For footy for the boys, and and easy packable tripod to capture it with. Universal Tripod from Pocket Tripod.
For the elements - whether tailgating, camping or sitting around the firepit in the backyard. A weather proof parka blanket for your legs from Mozy.
Also for the elements - a delightful inflatable sled from the same people that brought you every version of a cool pool float in the last five years. Cardigan Toboggan from Funboy.
For having tools at the ready without having them taken away by TSA. All the necessary parts of a Swiss Army knife except the knife. Gerber Shard Keychain Tool available on Amazon.
For hydration for the cyclist - a cheeky champagne-inspired bottle. If champagne’s not their thing, don’t miss their big gulp, elmer’s glue and red bull styled options. Bidon Domestique from Water Bodl.
If they prefer their hydration strapped to their back - a handy device for getting that camelback fully dry before packing it back away. Bōndry Hydration Bladder Dryer from Fossil Outdoor Inc.
Finally for decorating their hydration - super cool National Park themed vinyl stickers for wrapping around their hydroflask, nalgene or coffee mug. Infinity Stickers from Hydrascape.
For exploring underwater worlds - brilliantly blingy and super sealed swim goggles for kiddos. Mermaid in Training Goggles from Super Smalls.
Back to bringing their necessities with them - from face serum to vitamins. A set of magnetic leak-proof canisters for taking to the office or on the road. Build Your Six Bundle from Cadence.
For road trips - a decidedly better smelling air freshener from a favorite home fragrance purveyor. Golden Coast Car Fragrance from P.F. Candle Co.
For schlepping tools, camping items or art supplies wherever needed on their next big adventure. Legacy 14” Tool Bag from Carhartt.
Or for very specifically schlepping knitting supplies. Field Bag from Fringe Supply Co.
For long haul flights - and remembering how to sleep on planes. Endlessly configurable and comfortable, Travel Pillow from Infinity Pillow.
For a year’s worth of destinations. America the Beautiful - National Parks & Federal Recreational Lands Annual Pass from USGS Store.
