7 Practical Gift Ideas For Outdoorsy Guys

With the holidays coming ever closer, it’s time for us all to start giving thought to gifting. If you’re a little stuck on what you might get for a guy who loves to be outdoors this Christmas, then here’s a little inspiration. Here are seven of our favourite practical gift ideas for outdoorsy guys.

Men's Pro Change Robe EVO

There’s nothing that says top-quality like one of Red’s Pro Change EVO robes. Available in a wide variety of different colours, the EVO change robe is packed full of awesome design features to enhance their outdoor experience in all weather. It’s got a fantastic 15k waterproof and 8k breathable rating that’ll keep them both protected no matter the conditions, while the plush, moisture-wicking sherpa fleece lining is great at keeping them warm and cosy, whether they’re hitting the trails, by the shore, or standing on the sidelines. 

Men's EVO Pro Waterproof Parka Jacket

Next up on our list of gift ideas for outdoorsy guys is our Men's EVO Pro Waterproof Parka Jacket. The cool twin of our EVO Pro changing robe, this waterproof parka jacket packs the same waterproofing and breathability into a more tailored fit. This makes it the perfect gift for those who live a generally active and outdoorsy lifestyle and don’t always require the bulkiness and space of a changing robe. 

Adventure Waterproof Backpack

Our Adventure Waterproof Backpack lends itself incredibly well to all sorts of situations, making it a phenomenally versatile option among our list of outdoor gifts for men. It’s got a spacious 30L capacity, plenty of pocket spaces both inside and out. MOLLE webbing completes this epic backpack’s storage capabilities, and they can enjoy it all without fear of wet weather thanks to the 100% waterproof Armour Tech fabric and roll-top closure.

Lightweight Waterproof Backpack 22L

For someone who’ll prefer something a bit lighter, we’ve got you covered, too. The 22L Lightweight Waterproof Backpack makes an excellent gift if the Adventure Backpack isn’t their thing. Recycled Nylon Taslan with PFC-free waterproofing is a fantastic material, giving great water protection and awesome durability. Scuffs and abrasions are no worry with this backpack. You’ll also find padded straps and a breathable back panel for maximum user comfort.

Paddle Cap

A list of gift ideas for outdoorsy guys wouldn't be complete without including a comfortable, stylish, and eco-friendly hat. Our Paddle Cap is the perfect pick and a great addition to their stocking or as part of a range of outdoorsy-themed gifts. It offers trendy and versatile sun protection, whether they're enjoying the surface from their inflatable paddle board or hitting the beach at the weekend with the family.

Waterproof Roll Top Dry Bag 10L

For a small, yet surprisingly durable storage option, consider the Waterproof Roll Top Dry Bag. Its 10L capacity is ideal for keeping all of their essentials on hand while also protecting them from wet conditions. The welded seams and roll top ensure that the bag is totally impermeable, surviving total submersion without issue. A truly practical gift for a practical person.

Quilted Lightweight Water-Resistant Adventure Sit Mat

Our tough, abrasion-resistant Adventure Sit Mat makes a great gift for somebody who loves to chill out as part of their outdoor adventure. The incredibly durable ripstop nylon bottom layer and soft 3M Thinsulate quilted polyester top make it both tough and comfortable. It’s also totally impervious to sand, water and dirt, able to just be shaken off when they’re finished with it. The best part? Once they’re done, it folds down into its own compact stash bag for easy carrying and storage.
