Buyers Guide:

This section of our guide is particularly related to things that buyers should keep in mind when buying gifts. We will talk about price, what to buy, interests and other stuff in this section – followed by our top picks under various price tags. We also recommend our readers to check the social media (like Facebook and Pinterest) of all major brands for more ideas.

Price:

Price of any gift ideas item must be the number one consideration before you buy it. It is not only about your budget but value for money. Even if you can afford it, you must be sure of the value it will be giving to your kids or anyone else for that matter. There is a thin line between price and budget. Budget is what you can afford and what you can’t while the price is more like value for money.

Suppose you have a $100-dollar budget, you should not simply be eyeing for items around $100 (yes that should be one of your consideration but not the only one). You can find an item that is $50 but will be (almost half of what your budget is) but will be more liked by the person receiving it. Similarly, you can also find a gift item that costs around $110 but you’re sure that your baby will love it. What we are suggesting here is the fact that don’t limit yourself too much on the price. Think about the joy and that smile it will leave on your kids face.

What to Buy:

It is always a good idea to try and find out what your kids really want these days. Of course, you should not give them any hints as you would want to surprise them. Your 5 years old might be in love with his old kick scooter, and want its T-Bar fixed rather than getting a new one. So, try to know what he wants rather than buying an item that might seem cool to you.

Budget:

This one is important, probably the most important consideration before you buy a gift item. The gift market is so saturated that if you don’t narrow your search or confine yourself to the items relevant to you, you are likely to be lost. Most buyers are likely to make a wrong decision if they are just looking without having a budget in mind.

When you have a budget in mind, chances are you will be making a choice quicker and buying the right item for the occasion. In our list above, we have items as low as $10 while going up all the way to items costing thousands of bucks. The best part is, all the items are perfect – it all depends upon your budget and needs.

Moving forward, we have tried to simplified things. We have picked our favorite item from the list above under different price tags. We hope you like it…

The best gifts for hikers will all allow any hiker to enjoy their trip more and provide some enhancement to the whole experience. They share some similar characteristics, and we are going to talk about some of the most important things to keep in mind when buying gifts for hikers.

Packability

The packability of a gift for hikers is one of the most important things. Generally, hikers need things that are smaller, more lightweight, and easy to pack into a backpack. The more durable they are to be able to handle the squishy life of a hiking tool, the better. Try to find gifts that are either able to easily stuff into a bag, or hang from a carabiner easily. Remember, the more lightweight, the easier it will be for a hiker to enjoy.

What type of hiker are you buying for?

Not all hikers are the same. Some hikers like to do things the old fashioned way, like to push their limits and get out of their comfort zone. Others enjoy more comfortable hiking experiences and these things should be considered when buying gifts for hikers.

If they are more on the comfort-seeking size, try to find gifts that will help them stay comfortable, as opposed to tools and gadgets. Also keep in mind if they are someone who is going for sightseeing, soul searching, and adventure. There are plenty of things you can pick up that will aid your hiking friend in their ability to achieve their goals.

Practicality

One of the major advantages of buying items that are good for hiking is the fact that they are generally practically focused. The best gifts for hikers usually don’t have a lot of bells and whistles and get straight to the point. They will help any hiker out by acting as a tool, giving vital information, or providing necessary protection when it is hot and rainy. Keep in mind the practicality of the gift you’re picking out for a hiker.

Versatility

Versatility is also a strong seller for many of the best gifts for hikers. Hikers usually take only a small number of items with them on the trail. This means that anything they do take with them if it can perform more than one function, it will be a huge bonus. Then they can cut down on the number of items they need to take with them while experiencing the benefits they need in order to fully enjoy their hike.

Conclusion

Now you have a good idea of what some of the best gifts for hikers are. You should have no trouble finding something special for the hiker in your life to allow them to have the best hiking experience possible.
