Gifting guide
A list of gifts and guidelines for those looking to shop for me
Clothing
I’d rather shop for myself and customize my own wardrobe, so a gift card or even better shopping with me is the preferred choice.
If you do want to get me clothes though:
| Good | OK | No | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hats | Interesting everyday wear hats | Fun, weird, or dress up hats for occasional use | Baseball caps (not my thing) |
| Outer Wear | Full zip jackets, no hood, any warmth | Waistcoats/Dress up vests (I want to shop for my own, but some nice ones would still be appreciated)
Mid-weight sweaters with full zipper Fun/whimsical sweaters (can be pull-over or half-zip) |
Vests for warmth
Plain pull-over or half-zip style coats or similar |
| Shirts | Long Sleeve Shirts with fun designs (preferably related to my interests) | Long Sleeve button up shirts (What I prefer, but I have enough) | Short sleeve button up shirts (I don’t use them)
Short sleeve t-shirts (I have enough) |
| Pants | Durable cloth or canvas pants, preferably in colors other than blue, black, or tan
Warm PJ pants with fun patterns |
Jeans
Cloth or canvas shorts |
ANY kind of stretch pants (I do not like them)
Thin synthetic hiking pants or shorts (particularly the zip off conversion style) Dress pants (I have too many) |
| Footwear | Hiking boots or trail shoes
Sturdy every day wear boots (work boots) Ankle socks (preferably with fun patterns) |
Sandals
Dress shoes |
Books
I’m really getting back into reading lately, so any fun book related stuff is a good choice. Even things like getting me books that you’ve read that you think I might enjoy.
Currently I’m enjoying a few series and would love high quality physical versions of any of these or merchandise relating to them:
