ecofabulous Holiday Gift Guide 2012: For Him
Deciding what to get your dude this holiday season? Make him merry with these good and green picks from the ecofabulous Holiday Gift Guide 2012: For Him.
For Him
| Walk on the Wild Side: Fair Trade and environmentally responsible, these kickin’ Grama sneakers get their shape from organic cotton and natural latex materials found in the deepest, darkest Amazon ($94.00). |
|
| Boys in the Hood: With wind- and water-resistant features plus a soft polyester fleece lining for increased warmth, the recycled-polyester Shroud Of Purrin Hoody by Nau can help take on whatever weather comes his way ($375.00). |
|
| Whisker Away: Each small-batch-made product in the Shaving Gift Package from Prospector Co. is free of additives, artificial fragrances, and colorings — and is cleverly named after a prolific figure in history ($60.00). |
|
|
Wrap Star:
Hand dip-dyed to create a cool gradient effect, the Aurora Scarf is knitted from a light gauge of pure merino wool from sustainably raised sheep in New Zealand ($60.00).
|
| Knocked Off: Made from certified organic cotton in a factory that runs on 100% wind power, each PACT Holiday 2012 Sock Box sold benefits The Empowerment Plan, an organization aiding the homeless in Detroit ($24.99). |
|
| Mr. Green Jeans: The planet will appreciate the Nudie Grim Tim Recycled jean’s use of organic and recycled cotton; he’ll appreciate that their instructions read, “For best results, wear for six months before washing” ($179.00). |
|
| Handle It:
He’ll be able to lug anything from tools to travel wear in the heavy-duty Garrison, a tough-as-nails carry-all constructed from an ecotec untreated cotton-blend canvas that’s made from post-industrial recycled content ($265.00).
|
|
| Stomp Sustainably: Created from microfiber faux leather under fair labor conditions in the European Union, this Worker Boot rivals its leather counterparts like no other, breaking in and aging quite handsomely (kind of like him) ($250.00). |
|
| Making Waves: With the purchase of this 100% organic cotton Stillwater Sweater, United By Blue removes one pound of trash from oceans and waterways around the world ($88.00). |
|
| Sunnier Days Ahead: These aviator-inspired Ashland sunglasses by Shwood sport East Indian Rosewood or Zebrawood frames — plus, 10% of all sales are donated to the American Red Cross Sandy Relief Fund ($185.00). |
|
| Into the Woods: All-natural notes of cedar with hints of lime, vetiver grass, spruce, and aromatic hiba wood make up the very-manly (and organic) Wood Cologne from Portland General Store ($70.00). |
|
| The Good Foot: Jack Frost nipping at his toes? Keep them toasty with wool slipper socks handmade from a dark gray 100% lambswool sweater and recycled light brown leather ($88.00). |
|
| Big Softie: Introduce him to his new favorite shirt: a classic Color Block Champ Sweatshirt crafted from perfectly-comfy-on-a-cold-day Eco-Fleece ($48.00). |
|
| Play It Again, Sam: Sonic fabric fedoras give this menswear classic an edge: not only are they woven from recycled cassette tapes, but they also make sounds when you draw a tape head over their surface ($180.00). |
|
| Keep It Together, Man: Practical and good-looking for the man-on-the-go, this spacious wash bag is handmade from organic denim with contrasting stitching and a smart washable lining on its interior ($28.95). |
