      If you’re still showing up to your date on Valentine’s Day date with chocolate in one hand and flowers in the other, you’re doing it wrong. Not only will they wilt and be devoured within a day, tops, but they lack in creativity. Instead, say “I love you and want to contribute to your life in some meaningful way” with practical romantic gifts they’ll actually use for years to come.

      Pampered and practical

      The Art of Shaving Morris Park Travel Kit, Sandalwood

      Snailax Shiatsu Massage Cushion

      Wear their heart on your sleeve

      Men's Ontario Mid Waterproof Boot

      They say fewer things are more offensive than gifting someone a treadmill, but that doesn’t hold true for a pair of super-sturdy hiking shoes that you can both enjoy together. The Merrell Men’s Ontario Mid Waterproof hiking boots feel lightweight enough to carry you through those uphill battles, with breathable mesh fabric to reduce sweat and odor (which are never fun during your post-hike romantic date). Don’t forget the ever-necessary Wilderness Rucksack made of waterproof wax canvas for those larger-commitment hikes.

      Long Distance Touch Bracelet Set

      If you can’t be together IRL, quite literally wear your partner around your wrist. It sounds weird, but hear us out. The Bond Touch Long Distance Couples Bracelet Set prompts a vibration on the other bracelet when you touch your bracelet’s screen. You can even create your own romantic secret code. For example, five taps might mean “Can you pick up toilet paper?”

      To have and to hold

      Training Duffel Bag

      Some people don’t realize that stuffing all your belongings (gym clothes included) in a plastic bag isn’t going to cut it. For the active busy bee, they’ll be thankful to use a Nike Duffle Bag every day from the office to the gym and to the grocery store to cut down on single-use plastic.

      5-in-1 Wireless Car Charger

      To help facilitate your mid-commute check-in conversations, get them the 3-in-1 Dashboard Car Phone Holder that’ll prevent their precious phone from falling under the gas pedal (that’s one way to watch your entire life flash before your eyes).
