If you're like me, you're a serial procrastinator and/or you've been so busy with deal flow that you forgot that Christmas was right around the corner. You still need to buy gifts for your family, friends, significant others, teammates, doormen, side pieces, the hot HR girl (or hot guy if that's your thing) etc. and need something quick & high quality. 

We've compiled a list of some great gift options that won't leave your peers with a milquetoast response to your generosity. It's been a tough year in the markets so make sure you're getting the best bang for your buck. Don't get a reputation for being a weak gift-giver and check out the items below. 

We've bucketed them by categories and have added prices, discount codes, and cutoff dates for Christmas delivery where possible. The list, as you'd expect, is heavily skewed towards dudes but we've consulted our "female advisory network" for some truly bespoke ideas.

Lock in some capital gains from your stocks/cryptos/NFTs or allocate some bonus dollars towards some good gifts while there's still time.

As for us, if you'd like to support us keeping all content free and give thanks, you can buy us a beer right here!

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays from the Litquidity team 🤝🎅🎄🎁  Y'all are the best!

FOR THE GENTLEMEN 🤵

Apparel

Cuts Clothing

High-quality, comfortable basics that fit well can be hard to find these days. Cuts’ “Always On” or AO T-shirt is an excellent option for anyone who wants a solid color shirt that will look as good on them as it feels. 

AO Curve-Hem Tee – $54

Collars & Co

Collars & Co revolutionized work- and formalwear with their polos. They feature the same dress collars typically seen on restricting button-downs, but in the form of a comfortable and breathable short-sleeved polo. They work well under sweaters, blazers, or even solo. 

The Original English Spread Collar Polo – $65

Nadaam

As sweater weather begins to hit in full force, it’s essential to make sure those we care about are prepared. Nadaam offers incredibly soft and sustainable cashmere for a fraction of the price of most other luxury brands. Their “Essential” cashmere sweater is a must-have for staying warm.

The Essential Cashmere Sweater – $75

Meriggi

Snow bird season is upon us, which means it’s time to make sure those who appreciate a 5-inch inseam are taken care of. Meriggi’s swim shorts are great for achieving that tailored fit inside and outside the water. 

They currently have 25% off SITE WIDE with code "LITHOLIDAY".

Shipping Cutoff: December 13th at 1pm PT

State & Liberty

As workwear evolves, it’s becoming more important to prioritize comfort while maintaining the traditional professional look. These dress pants from State & Liberty look and fit like a standard pair of tapered suit pants, yet they’re made of a breathable and stretchy material that helps make discomfort a thing of the past.   

Athletic Fit Stretch Suit Pants – $135

Mizzen + Main

I've been wearing Mizzen + Main's performance dress shirts for years. They are basically a blend of tailored dress shirts with the comfort and stretchiness of golf polos. 

They're offering $50 off orders of $250+ and $100 off orders of $400+ with code "MOREGIFTS" at checkout. So it's a good time to stock up on these if you need to refresh your in-office attire. 

The Leeward Dress Shirt – $138

Lululemon

These are an in-office staple for the look of nice tailored dress pants and the comfort of your favorite gym shorts

The ABC Pant – $128

Alo Yoga

Alo Yoga is giving Lululemon a run for its money with its high-quality and extremely comfortable athleisure gear. This Micro Waffle hoodie is soft, breathable, and perfect for everyday wear. 

Micro Waffle Fast Break Hoodie – $138

James Perse

Well known for its minimalism-inspired luxury, this James Perse T-shirt set is a great gift to help elevate the casual essentials of any man’s closet.

Footwear

Amberjack

Thanks to our friends at Amberjack, the days of wearing sneakers for the commute and changing into dress shoes at the office are gone. They’re dedicated to making shoes that feel as good as they look. These Chelsea boots are a great option to be dressed up or down for the office, a night out, and anything in between. 

The Chelsea – $195

Oliver Cabell

A closet isn’t complete without a good pair of low-top leather sneakers. They can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion; depending on the color, they go well with virtually any outfit. Since not everyone wants to drop almost $500 on a pair of Common Projects, the Low 1 from Oliver Cabell is an excellent lower-priced alternative. Also, they’re built from Italian leather and the same Margom outsoles, so there’s no need to worry about sacrificing quality.

Low 1 – $279

Del Toro

We at Litquidity are firm believers that everyone needs a good pair of party loafers in their life, so we created a pair in collaboration with Del Toro. These handmade suede loafers are the missing final touch for formal occasions this season.

Men's Litquidity Suede Milano – $385

Face & Body

Stryx

Just because summer is over, doesn’t mean your face is done needing protection. An essential part of every skincare routine is incorporating a daily SPF to protect from harmful rays. The Daily Moisturizer from Stryx is designed to hydrate and protect men’s skin, making it a great staple.  

Daily Moisturizer SPF30 – $42

Kiehl’s

This gift set from the experts at Kiehl’s is a perfect trio for any man in your life who knows how critical taking care of his skin is. With a cleanser, moisturizer, and under-eye cream, they’ll be set to keep their skin looking revitalized and healthy.

Ledger

Crypto has had a crazy year and many centralized exchanges and lenders have gone under, lost and/or misappropriated customer deposits. This has served as a wake up call for many (including myself) that you need to take ownership of your crypto and keep it secure. Ledger is the leader in self-custody products for your digital assets.

Check out Ledger's flagship Nano X product for $149. 

Ledger recently announced its latest product, Stax, which is the most advanced & customizable wallet with a large e-ink screen. It'll be available March 2023 but can be pre-ordered now.
