Show notes

We’re talking about great gifts for husbands, boyfriends, dads, grandparents, coaches and kids . . . as well as some items you might want to put on your own wishlist. We’ve got recommendations on travel, books, candles, and skincare stuff, as an assortment of unique gifts for the younger set. FOR MEN Travel The ABLE Alem leather passport holder is a great gift for anyone who travels a lot, and it’s made by artisans in Ethiopia who are earning a fair wage. Pinch Provisions Travel Set has everything you could need in a tiny little bag. It’s great for emergencies or to have on hand in case your luggage was lost. The Herschel Backpack is a classic. It’s canvas with leather straps and a simple, masculine vibe. Away has the perfect gift for everyone on your list because they make suitcases for the way we all actually travel, with features like an ejectable TSA-approved battery or a built-in front pocket, and they come in a range of colors and materials to suit your travel style. Also, every suitcase comes with a 100-day trial that gives you plenty of time to decide on the perfect size and color—which also means you can gift with confidence.

For the person who is constantly losing their keys . . . the Tile Mate Key Finder is a practical and thoughtful gift, especially for dads.
