As the season of gift-giving is vastly approaching us, I hope you have an extensive list of what you are getting that special someone in your life. But if you are not ready for the holiday season quite yet, I gathered a list of 15 camping gifts for him--whether it be your brother, father, friend, boyfriend, cousin, etc...you get my point.
When finding camping gifts for him, that can particularly be difficult, espcially if they already have all the essentials--or maybe you are not a big camper yourself, so you truthfully have no idea what to get him. Regardless, I find these gift ideas to be unique enough where you should not have too much trouble finding a gift, so lets dive in.
While it may sound silly, waterproof playing cards are one of those items you don't wish you have until it's too late. Save yourself the pain from ending a card game early if an accident happens and get these waterproof playing cards.
2. Jackery Explorer 1000 Portable Power Station
This is an investment I never second-guessed. There have been plenty of times where I simply want to use a powered item outside and need power, but I have also ran into emergency situations where I was able to make it through the nigh thanks to this portable power station.
When I first got my SoloStovem, I didn't understand why I didn't see more people at campsites with them. They're smokeless and are easy to breakdown and put in the back of your car or puck-up with every little mess. Fires without the smoke and smell are amazing!
4. Entry-Level Drone with 1080P HD camera
If you are looking for a neat gift, but not too sure if they will use it consistently, start with this entry-level drone where you won't regret spending hundreds of dollars all for the drone to get stuck in a tree.
5. HD Monocular Telescope with Smartphone Adapter
I remember when my dad bought a similar gift for me before a trip and my sister thought it was rediculous. Fast forward to today, my sister now uses it all the time to take pictures of birds. This gift will be perfect for anyone who enjoys outdoor photography and it is within a resonable price!
6. Outdoor Dog Hiking Backpack
Man's best friend needs to match man right? Store any lightweight gear, treats, or anything else you think your companion can handle.
This is an item on the list I still have yet to order and will probably be doing so after I finish publishing this article. This is another item you don't think to have until it's too late and these gifts are wonderful before they last much longer than normal, powerless hand warmers.
Being cold anywhere is the last thing you want. Avoid the coldness and come prepared with a personal propane heater to be ready for the upcoming winters.
9. 86 inch 2-Person Inflatable Kayak Set
Anything inflatable is handy for the ease of transportation, but keep in mind long-term, you might want to upgrade to the real deal to avoid any holes when your adventuring kicks into high-gear.
10. “Gone Fishing & Never Coming Back” Aluminum Sign
If you are hoping to gift something with a little bit of humor, I got you covered too!
Once again, this is another item on my list I need to purchase because I cannot think of how many times I've needed a multi-tool with me, so if someone you know does not have this item but loves outdoor activites, do not think twice.
12. Beer Savers Silicone Bottle Caps
While I don't think there are many situations where you want to save you beer for later...you never what happens, so might as well come prepared!
13. Stanley The Happy Hour Stainless Steel Cocktail Shaker Set
Camping and drinking go hand-in-hand, I think we all know that; but if your man is the type of person who loves to go all out for his drinks and make them the "right" way (whatever right means to you), get this gift and I'm sure he will love it.
14. I Really Love it When My Wife Lets Me Go Fishing Mug
If he loves to go fishing and you need him around the house helping out, I think you found the perfect gift. Plus it's a nice play-on-words, so why not?
Late at night trying to dig for a beer, soda, or water isn't the worst thing to deal with, but also is not ideal. Save everyone the hassle by placing this rechargable cooler light inside your cooler.
16. BioLite Campstove 2 - Wood Burning USB Charger
If you are camping off-grid and don't have a portable power station, this is a great gift because you can easily store it in your backpack and all you need are twigs or pellets to charge any device (i.e., flashlight, cell phone, hand warmer, etc.). If you purchase the kit, you even get a little water kettle that can boil water in 5 minutes!
17. Propane Tank Refill Adapter
Once again, another item you never think you need until it is way too late, so save everyone the pain of running out of propane and buy the adaptor because at least you have it when you need it. The adaptor fits a 1lb tank and will fit onto any normal size propane tank.
18. Pendleton Yakima Camp Throw
A nice, cozy camping blanket is always a safe bet if you really have no idea which camping gift to give to that special man in your life. There are beautiful Earth-tone colors and comes in 4 different sizes to choose from! Keep in mind, it is made from cotton and wool, just in case someone has a wool allergy.
19. Rumpl Original Puffy Blanket
A classic gift for someone who loves the National Parks is the Rumpl Puffy Blanket. Mark a special trip or their favorite park by getting them this one-of-a-kind blanket.
If you camp, you NEED S'mores and this little roaster is perfect for doing so! Get the treat ready and start roasting!
Conclusion
I tried to provide an extensive gift list with some variation as I understand not everyone ejoys the same items or may already have them or simply may not like them! With 20 camping gifts for him, I hope you find at least one time you can give that special man in your life because I know I already bought a few items!
Wishing everyone nothing but love, peace, and joy this holiday season! Stay safe and warm!
