2024 Holiday Gift Guide

'Tis the season

An Optimist Gift Guide

Shopping in December is all peaks and valleys. You feel like a tremendous son/husband/partner/friend if you find the perfect gift, or you quickly realize how little you know someone if you struggle to find them something.

It’s a wonderful time to take audit of who is important in your life, who feels they are important to you, and which people just get a Target gift card.

Not everyone requires the same amount of mental effort to shop for. (Note: not everyone in your life needs a gift 😀 ). While this gift guide will certainly not cover every gift dynamic in your life, we hope it can save you some brain power to focus more on the ones closest to you.

Without further adieu…

For the Golfer

Golf Shoe Bag

Are they necessary? Not at all. Are they sweet? You betcha!

A few we like:

Stitch Shoe Bag $76 after 40% off

For the wife/girlfriend

A classic silhouette that goes with everything.

Something small and Lè chic that won’t break the bank.

For the Parents and In-Laws

Thoughtful, useful, personal. Some say that’s the trifecta of gift giving.

For the Siblings

Nike Killshot Sneakers (Avail in Men’s or Women’s) $90

The go-to sneaker that goes with everything is under $100 directly from Nike. There is a reason that J.Crew and similar brands use these in their photoshoots for their jeans, shorts, etc.

No matter your hometown team, Abercrombie has a ton of apparel in updated graphics and fits. Perfect for Gen Z and their wide jeans 🙂 .

For the Boss

Nothing says sophistication and culture like a waxed log carrier. Only a fool would refuse such a gift.

Blue Label for the CEO or VP, Black label for Director and under 🙂 .

For the Kiddos

Each month your kiddo will receive a box with a new toy to build and slowly increase their engineering minds. Start easy and they eventually bring in software programming. Make Steve Ballmer proud!

For the Friendos

Also available in high dose (10mg) or micro (2mg), and also in canned cocktails. You can mix them with anything.

For the Masses

Bombas Slippers $65 - $85

Everyone loves a new pair of slippers in the wintertime. Bombas has you covered.

Candles are always a safe gift, especially good ones like these.

Now go crush those holidays!
