8 Gifts for the People In Your Life Who Are Always Outdoors

Winter hiking is a thing, and any seasoned fan of the sport knows that an ultra-warm performance jacket is the key to a successful experience. This one hits right below the waist and comes with a removable fur hood.

The formula for a fresh-off-the-slopes outfit is equal parts cozy and chic, and this fleece definitely hits the mark. Take your pick from over 20 colors—each of which is spun from recycled yarn. 

Whether your giftee is on a day trip to a cute town upstate or using her holiday vacation to discover a new country, she’ll definitely need a bag that’s as seasonally appropriate as the rest of her outfit. And what’s more winter chic than shearling?

For the friend who is a kid at heart through and through, gloves that allow her to play in the snow are a perfect gift. They’re waterproof (nobody likes a soggy palm) but still breathable, and come with an elastic leash to keep them from getting lost on the hills.

Paddle tennis is a cold-weather country club staple, but it can be difficult to dress for. A cozy headband will keep her ears warm without overheating when her heart rate gets going, and it looks cute with nearly any hairstyle.

If she prefers uphill trekking to downhill skiing, durable and stylish snow pants are the perfect present. Designed for maximum movement and temperature regulation, the Snoga pants from The North Face are so versatile, she’ll forget how she went all those winters without them.

If pitching a tent over frozen ground is her thing, she’ll need great boots for the campfire strolls (and middle-of-the-night outhouse treks). Not only are these Moon Boots warm and comfortable, but they also bring a bit of urban style into back country with metallic patent leather and wraparound laces. 

One-piece ski suits are absolutely back and we’re here for the style moment. With a fleece lining and waist-cinching belt, this one will keep her looking stylish on the mountain regardless of how fine-tuned her ski skills are.
