More gift ideas for Defender of the Fatherland Day
Multitool
This multifunctional tool is a great thing, replacing a man with a whole set of tools, such as a screwdriver, pliers, side cutters, knife, etc. Do you need to strip the contacts or pull the nail out of the board? No problems. You need to open the bottle, but there is no corkscrew at hand? There is a multitool for this. Despite their compact size, multitools can hold up to 30 tools. You can carry a small multitool in your pocket, store more multitool in the glove compartment of your car or in your bag. An irreplaceable thing for cyclists, motorists, lovers of hikes and trips to nature, as well as for “techies”.
Fitness tracker
Good choice for active guys. Now the athlete will be able to track the heart rate during training, the distance traveled and the number of calories expended while monitoring how long and how well he slept. And he will receive information about text messages and calls without interrupting the training.
Star Wars Hero Mug
There are a lot of Star Wars fans. And if your husband, son or relative loves the heroes of this franchise, then you will surely appreciate the mug in the form of a Darth Vader helmet, Boba Fett, an imperial stormtrooper or R2-D2. They cost about 1000 rubles in Russian online stores. According to some reviews, such mugs do not have very convenient removable covers (they are easy to slide and break), so be careful.
In addition: to the true fan of Darth Vader, you can present the Gillette Proshield Star Wars: Rogue One branded machine with a mug. This is the most advanced Gillette machine ever created. He uses the technology found inside the Jedi's lightsaber to achieve the smoothest and cleanest shave possible in this universe. You can purchase it on the Amazon website.
Black leather belt
Black leather, silver or gold buckle, designer name. A classic that will never go out of style and will always be useful while men wear pants.
Classic high boots insulated with fur
A practical and useful gift (provided that you know exactly the size of the feet of the person being gifted), which allows you to keep your feet warm during the winter. The sole should be rubber (polyurethane slides strongly and “stones” quickly) and have good grip so that the man does not slip during ice. Leatherette boots are a good budget option, which has only one drawback: the legs do not breathe and sweat.
A more “advanced” option is a breathable artificial eco-leather. And the most expensive, but also long-lasting and pleasant option for the feet is genuine leather (pork, calf, cow or bovine). Velor or suede boots should not be taken if a man walks a lot. Otherwise, the gift will quickly lose its beautiful appearance.
