For coffee lovers

Christmas gift #1: For coffee lovers

Yes, you’ve got it right – coffee from a tube. Simply add hot water and – voilà – the pick-me-up is ready. One tube is enough for about 20 cups, and it doesn’t need to be refrigerated. It’s the perfect gift for anyone who doesn’t want to miss out on their coffee while on the go.

Pliers, knives, Phillips head and flat screwdrivers, files – everything’s included! And yet the tool is so small that you can always have it with you on a keychain. Anyone who spends a lot of time outdoors would most likely be happy to receive this Christmas present. Whether you’re hiking, bikepacking or simply travelling, sooner or later you’re happy to have the right tool.

Christmas gift #4: For thinkers

When hiking, don’t just exercise your legs, but your brain, too! Who do you think of when you read this? This is the perfect gift idea for this person. The magnetic travel chess set can be folded up and stored in a small area and provides some variety during breaks, in evenings at a hut or in the tent.

For climbing enthusiasts

Christmas gift #5: For climbing enthusiasts

A climbing hold is attached to this cup. It’s an ideal Secret Santa or Christmas present for climbing friends. With every sip of coffee or tea, they’ll train their grip – and probably think of you, too, because it’s less comfortable than drinking from a normal cup.

Christmas gift #6: For those on the go

If you’re out and about for a long time, sooner or later you’ll have to go. Do so easily and without waste with a pee cloth. The outside has a waterproof coating, while the inside has an antibacterial and fast-drying silver layer that absorbs urine. Fold it up with a snap button while on the go.

Socks as a gift? Of course!

Christmas gift #7: Socks as a gift? Of course!

Yes, gifting socks isn’t very creative. But we all need them, which makes them a delight to receive. The Merino socks are breathable and, thanks to the material, take longer to start to smell, even during sweat-inducing activities. The seamless transition to the toe also reduces the risk of blisters. They’re actually cycling socks, but they’re also great for travelling or hiking.

Christmas gift #8: For explorers

It’s really hard to believe how much can fit into this tin. A compass, waterproof matches, sugar packets, a fishing hook, a signal whistle or even sterile cloths for injuries. There are a total of 33 items packed in the anchovy can, waterproof and safe from pressure. It’s the perfect Christmas gift for explorers and people whose curiosity allows them to only open the can in an emergency.
