Somehow, 12 months have managed to clip past us since last year’s gift-giving madness. But... here we are. Again. And if you’ve already made your list, great. If you haven’t, great. Because below, we’ve rounded up a few local gifting ideas for you. Just call us “Nick.”
Yes, it’s a wallet. But the thing is: everyone needs one. And the other thing is: these are made by a local guy using materials like full-grain and suede leather. They also fit in your front pocket, minus that whole bulging thing. Leave that to your... phone.
Sure, you could buy your buddy some rare ales and call it a day. But you know what they say, teach a man to fish... and they’ll make you cerveza. So behold: beer-making kits from Daddy Brews. They’ve got IPA, stout and pilsner sets. Cheers, indeed.
Antonio Bachour. He’s the wizard concocting those desserts you inhale at the St. Regis. And now he’s published a cookbook so that the pastry aficionado in your life can replicate his chocolate dulce de leche and fruit-laced verrines for your next dinner thing. We believe the term is “win-win.”
Compared to getting a personal performance from Jay Z, getting a pair of headphones falls a tiny bit short. But look, Hov’s a busy guy. And besides, these headphones from Urbanears are pretty damn handsome, what with all that Harris tweed made from virgin wool. Ears, your time has come.
Just going out on a limb here, but... you probably have someone of the female persuasion on your list. Pro tip: a clutch is never a bad way to go. Especially when said clutch is a fetching acrylic number with a wind-up clasp. Like the twist cap of purses... but not.
