Zephyr Jogger and Keyhole Top
Once you wear joggers to work, you can never go back. The COVID-19 pandemic helped most of us become addicted to athleisure wear as work, school, and everything else became remote. Just because many activities are no longer being done remotely doesn’t mean you can no longer wear comfortable clothes whenever you feel like it. Gifting a matching top and jogger set is a great way to show proof you're a gifting wizard who prioritizes a deserving loved one’s need for comfort.
These newly released zephyr joggers by Wolven are comfortable enough to wear to the gym (or the couch) and cute enough to wear everywhere else. Pair the joggers with the matching zephyr keyhole top and you’ve got a striking lounge-or-anything-else set to gift. These items may not be the most budget friendly as the joggers and top are $98 and $72, respectively. On the bright side, quality clothes such as these can last for years to come!
Anyone who loves comfort and has an appreciation for rich prints will adore you for this gift set.

Pride Body Wash Pack
Shopping for men can be just as easy as it is hard. While they are often easier to please than the women in our lives, the gift selections to choose from are often subpar and, honestly, boring.

This budget-friendly $25 Pride body wash pack is a five-star reviewed gift set that any man will appreciate. The giftee will be able to relish in a luxurious shower provided by this essential oil scented body wash, and you will have donated to a good cause, as 25% of the proceeds go to Rainbow Railroad.
The outdoor or fitness loving men in your life will thank you tremendously when they open this box set.
