Freestyle Wrapping

The UrbanDaddy National Holiday Gift Guide

You’re all for giving great gifts during the holidays. It’s just... you’re also all for not spending hours of your life looking for those gifts. We know this, so we went ahead and tracked those presents down for you. We find, you wrap. It’s that easy.

FOR THE SWEET SCIENTIST

Killspencer Boxing Speed Bag

When people see a speed bag, they punch it. When people see this speed bag, they’ll punch it, too. But not before admiring the immaculate hand stitching and supple black leather. Also available: leather baseballs, maple bats and a football made of burgundy Italian suede. Those are less good for punching.

FOR THE VISUALLY STIMULATED

Rankin Edition Prints

A rather famous photographer is selling some signed prints. Of some rather nude Kate Mosses. And some rather covered-in-chocolate Heidi Klums. And... we’re willing to bet there are at least a half dozen people on your holiday list who would appreciate this.

SCENT TO BE

The Gift That Keeps on... Smelling Great

Meet UOMO by Ermenegildo Zegna. It’s a new men’s fragrance from the celebrated house of Italian dapperness. A confidence-rousing scent of Zegna bergamot, violet leaf essence, vetiver and cedarwood that you’ll want to consider for matters of holiday gifting. Or receiving, depending on how good you are at throwing hints around.

FOR THE MUSICALLY INCLINED

Mozartkugel Music Box

Some Germans in a village on the edge of the Black Forest have fashioned a music box out of local oak. It plays only “Voi che sapete” from Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro. And it’s not compatible with iTunes. So hopefully they’ll like that song.

FOR THE WRIST HAVER

Lulu Frost Cut-Steel Bracelet 8

Back in the 1800s, this bracelet was actually a cut-steel shoe buckle with hand-faceted cut-steel stones. So... remember to share that little anecdote as you place this around the wrist of someone special. Also, feel free to embellish the story by throwing in things like pirates or whatever.

FOR THE EASY RIDER

Schott Custom Leather Jackets

A custom leather jacket from the same family that invented leather jackets 100 years ago: that’s what we like to call a “gifting slam dunk.” Oh, and hey, maybe get one for yourself as a little job-well-done reward, too.
