2020 Holiday Gift Guide: Gift for Him
Hiiii, it's Remi here!
It's only November 10th, but let's be real — the holiday season will be here before we know it!! I, for one, LOVE avoiding the holiday shopping craze at the last minute. And sometimes, it's HARD to know what to buy the loved ones in your life, so I am here to say you can’t go wrong with practical gifts!
Nate is bigggg on practical gifts — he wants to be able to use them and use them often! I like to mix in super practical gifts for him as well as things that he might not think to get for himself.
I've come up with this Holiday Gift Guide that you can use for the Nates in your life (AKA those super practical guys who prefer socks over a suit). Instead of waiting until the last minute, plan ahead this year and get those gifts early! It will save you loads of time and also let you enjoy the holiday season even more!
And as always, I'd love to hear what practical gifts you purchase for your loved ones! Feel free to comment under this post or DM me on Instagram @rrayyme!
Clothing & Accessories
Shoreline Bomber — this street-smart bomber is perfect for anyone looking to rock a classic utility jacket. It looks great with everything, and it has cargo pockets on the front to hold keys, phone, etc. Nate is rarely cold, so he often only needs lighter outerwear, but you can always layer these under a bigger winter jacket.
Long Sleeve Henley Tee — this comfy cotton tee comes in varying neutral colors, and it's the perfect shirt to wear in those colder months.
City Sweat Pullover — everyone loves a good hoodie, and this one is PERFECT for Nate. It comes in several different colors, and it's made from French Terry fabric, which is super breathable.
The Zone Tank — around the house, Nate usually likes to go around shirtless lol, but when it gets chillier, he definitely prefers some light coverage, like this airy tank top!
Buck Mason Tee — a classic, loose-knit tee that any guy will enjoy (and it comes in a lot of different colors). Nate pretty much owns only five shirts, and they are all these lolol.
Vuori Camo Shorts — these super comfy camo shorts are great for workouts, but honestly, you can wear them anywhere! They also have a boxer-brief liner in case your guy likes to go commando lol.
Vuori Banks Shorts — these shorts are perfect for swimming, hiking, biking, surfing, and pretty much any other outside athletic activity you can think of. They're also made from recycled plastic bottles, which is so cool!
Surge Shorts — particularly designed for running, these shorts are super lightweight and comfortable!
Select Jogger — everyone needs a good pair of joggers, and these are perfect for Nate. Comfy, classic, and functional!
Bandanas — not only are these great stocking stuffers, but they're handy accessories as well! If your guy has long hair, they’re a good way to keep it out of his face.
Beanie — made from recycled cotton, these beanies are comfy, stylish, and so so useful in those colder months!
Baseball Cap — Nate loves a good baseball cap! This particular cap is water-repellent and great for wearing outside and on the go!
Stance Socks — AKA the only socks that Nate wears. They're super comfy and are all-around great, everyday socks!
Birkenstocks — you will RARELY see Nate without these on!! He loves them so much! They will conform to the shape of your foot for maximum comfort, and they're super stylish!
Common Projects Combat Boots — these combat boots are the perfect gift for any guy looking for a durable shoe and an urban-military look.
Common Projects High-Top Sneakers — who doesn't love high-top sneakers?! These have a similar look to Common Projects Combat Boots (basically combat boots in sneaker form for a more relaxed fit).
Salomon Speed Assault Boots — these lightweight, tactical shoes are designed specifically for military personnel, but they're available to anyone! Perfect for trail running, mountain biking, and backpacking, these shoes will get you where you need to go!
Garmin Fenix Watch — this sleek, manly GPS watch is easy to use, tracks your heart rate and fitness stats, and gives you access to Garmin's online fitness community!
Oakley Sunglasses — these sunglasses are not only stylish but also really functional! With polarized lenses, they have a reduced glare and keep your eyes protected.
Tanner Goods Koru Rucksack — Nate loves a good tactical backpack, and this one is perfect. Made from waxed canvas, this rucksack is extremely durable!
Home & Health
Celsius Energy Drink — Nate's favorite (and super clean) energy-boosting drink! It also boosts your metabolism and helps you burn more calories!
Purely Elizabeth Granola — this is one of Nate's favorite granolas. It's completely organic (non-GMO, gluten-free, and vegan), and it's so goooooood.
Chef's Knife — This 8" knife is perfect for cutting thicker vegetables, like potatoes, squash, and cabbage! It's also handmade in Japan!
Coffee Mug — this coffee mug from Anthropology is made in Portugal, and it has a super earthy vibe.
Coffee Mug Set — also from Anthropology, this set of four mugs is composed of glazed stoneware in a variety of colors.
Thera Gun — this percussive therapy device is perfect for relieving muscle tension, soreness, and it promotes fast recovery! (It's also super quiet!)
Mustard Bath — Nate uses this literally every day as a part of his morning routine. It aids in muscle and joint recovery! He draws a super (super) hot bath and soaks in this, and then he hops in a freezing cold shower directly after to get him alert and primed for the day.
Dyson Air Purifier and Fan — this air purifier removes 99.7% of all pollutants and allergens! It's great to have in the home (especially if you have lots of animals like we do)!
The Daily Stoic — this book is full of practical wisdom that helps destroy limiting beliefs and help you step into your full potential!
Shinola Planner (monogram option) — who says guys can't use planners?! If they're as practical as Nate, this gift is perfect for them.
Shinola Money Clip & Card Case — Made from high-quality leather, this money clip & card case is great at storing your cash for easy access.
Shinola Backpack — another one of Nate's favorites, this backpack is great for storing laptops, books, and other personal items!
Give the Gifts of HōmeBodies
And there you have it — Nate's Holiday Gift Guide! I hope this guide helps you shop for the practical guy in your life — whether it be your friend, brother, partner, or even dad! I really don't think any guy could be unhappy with anything on this list!
Clothes, accessories, food, and household items are important, but your body is probably even MORE important! All of those things can contribute to overall wellness, but they can't magically make you fit.
What CAN is our virtual workout program HōmeBodies! If you're looking for a no-bullshit, zero excuses crew here to help you move better, get stronger, FEEL GOOD, and become a consistent exerciser, this is the place for you! And what's more, it's the PERFECT gift for the Nate in your life that's looking to improve his body too!
There are three different ways you can join us:
The Yearly Plan: This means that if you pay upfront for the whole year and get five months FREE! Most of our members jumped in with this plan, and we are SO PROUD of their commitment!
The Monthly Plan: Basically, you get everything The Yearly Plan members do, but instead of paying $1.45 a day, you pay $2.50 a day.
The Buy-As-You-Go Plan: You have access to eight of the community's current favorite workouts so that you can get your sweat on whenever you want. PS You only have access to these for one month, so don't wait too long to get started!
The Yearly Plan is definitely the best value and makes for the best holiday gift! Our #noexcuses mindset has generated incredible results, and our members continually say it's the one workout program they can show up to every day. They also say they can't believe how fast time flies when they're working out with us because it's so FUN! If you want to read more testimonials, check out our website to hear what everyone's saying and see pictures of real results!
We admit that HōmeBodies is not the cheapest workout program out there, but it's also not your average workout program. We move your body in ways you would never have thought to move, and we believe in fitness for your health and future. We aren’t getting younger, so we focus on our mobility just as much as we do on strength. In other words, we're here for you for the long run.
Nate and I believe that our health is our greatest asset. If you agree, consider investing in HōmeBodies as the perfect gift this holiday season. <3 It’s a super practical gift because it has a DISTINCT purpose — it inspires long-term change, improves mobility and strength training, teaches you the value of hard work, and will get you FIT and HEALTHY!
As always, let me know what you think of these gifts and if you have any practical gifts to share! You can tag me on Instagram, @rrayyme, or comment under this post!
