There’s no doubt about it: more and more of us are looking for ways to find the perfect Christmas gifts without breaking the bank. Of course, you’ll want to make sure that whatever you do get is thoughtful and worthwhile, but there’s really no need to splurge to show someone special that you care.
If you’re looking to stay under budget with your Christmas shopping this year, gifts under £25 are the way forward. Whether you stick to a theme with all outdoorsy items or mix and match an assortment of personalised picks, filling a stocking with an assortment of carefully considered but lower-priced items is a surefire way to spread some festive cheer. Not sure where to start? Check out these amazing 8 gifts under £25, particularly perfect for the outdoor adventurer in your life.
Waterproof Phone Case
First up on our stocking filler gift guide and coming in well below the gifts under £25 budget is this epic waterproof phone case. Lightweight and water-resistant, this transparent phone case keeps you connected when heading off on all kinds of water adventures. The case comes with a handy strap so that the user can keep it around their neck and close to their body at all times, perfect for taking pictures and capturing the sights from a boat or Red paddleboard.
Paddleboard Camera Mount
While we’re on the subject of taking great photos from the water, check out Red’s paddleboard camera mount. This sturdy bit of kit slots neatly onto the front of a SUP to make capturing the views from the water easier than ever before. The mount itself is built to resist the challenges of the water, with 360-degree rotation and a textured surface that makes it super easy to grip when wet and in use.
Microfibre Towel
The Red Original large microfibre towel is another perfect gift under £25 for anybody who enjoys spending time in and around water. This microfibre towel is everything you could want from a great stocking filler: small but mighty. Despite being the size of a large beach towel, it dries off quickly and packs down compactly with an integrated strap for easy carrying. Whether your loved one has a holiday planned, is a frequent swimmer, or just enjoys a beach day, they’ll be delighted with this choice from our stocking filler gift guide.
10l Waterproof Roll Top Dry Bag
We couldn’t miss the chance to include this one in our stocking filler gift guide. After all, a waterproof roll top dry bag is useful on almost any adventure as it keeps belongings safe, dry, and free from excess exposure to sand and dirt. This 10-litre waterproof roll top bag is built with quality and usability at the very forefront and stand-out features include a reinforced base as well as a padded strap for easy transportation between shore and sea.
Voyager Beanie
Looking to add a stylish but practical touch to your loved one’s stocking this year? Make sure you add this staple beanie. The voyager beanie is essential for any adventurer or outdoorsy individual, keeping the head and ears warm in cold, wet, or windy conditions. Plus, it’s available in a range of colours and comes in a unisex fit, so you need not worry about any awkward Christmas day try-ons!
Roam Beanie
Alternatively, our roam beanie is another great pick when it comes to gifts under £25. This beanie is a great choice for those who embrace all things sustainable as it is made from 100% post-consumer Recycled Polyester which meets Global Recycled standards. The roam beanie looks as good as it feels too, with bright teal and mustard colours to choose from.
Grangers Eco Twin Pack
Practical presents are in this year, and a great choice particularly if you have to buy for someone who seems to already have everything they need! We highly recommend this fantastic twin pack from Grangers which includes a performance wash and dirt repellent that expertly cleans all kinds of outdoor gear, removes harmful residue, and restores treasured items to like-new quality.
Paddle Cap
And if, like us, your nearest and dearest are looking forward to sunnier conditions again, the paddle cap is one of the best gifts for under £25 available this year. The paddle cap is ultra-lightweight, moisture-wicking and perfect for protecting the eyes from the UV rays we’re longing to see again. Available in either navy or grey, this stocking filler is one they’re certain to get a lot of use from.
