Holiday Gift Guide: The best cold weather accessories for the guy in your life via Wardrobe OxygenEvery year, my mom, sister, and I exchange emails of what we and our loved ones want for Christmas. We share far more than one could purchase; mix links to specific items with general ideas (you can always make me happy with a gift of a funky dish towel or cloth napkins) so there is still an element of surprise. Last weekend I was sitting on the couch crafting this annual email and I asked Karl what he wanted.

โ€œGift cards, a subscription to National Geographic, and gloves.โ€

Every year my mom gives Karl a subscription to National Geographic and weโ€™re not a gift card for Christmas family. As for gloves, Karl is with gloves the way I am with dish towels and cloth napkins: he canโ€™t get enough and he loves variety. I donโ€™t think you can go wrong with a gold weather accessory when buying a gift for a man in your life. Itโ€™s practical yet personal. It appeals to the guy who doesnโ€™t like gifts, the guy who already has everything he needs, the athlete, the fashionisto, and any age.

We all know by now I am a fan of Nordstrom for my wardrobe, but theyโ€™re also one of my first go-to stores for gifts. They curate a great selection of non-apparel items and create shops within their stores for popular categories. Their โ€œCold Comfortsโ€ department (in store and online) has an excellent variety of menโ€™s scarves, hats, and gloves and youโ€™re sure to find the perfect gift for every guy on your list. My favorites:

  1. These are the actual โ€œglovesโ€ I added for Karl to the family Christmas list. Karl is a runner, and while he has active gloves he says his hands still get cold. These have a windproof mitten front, but separated fingers glove back (with an e-Tip to use your SmartPhone) so you donโ€™t lose dexterity. $30.00
  2. He can keep his ears warm while listening to music or talking on the phone with these headphone ear warmers! Wind-resistant with a behind-the-head design and click to fit frame makes them comfortable and great for outdoor activities as well as walking to the office or his next college class. $35.00
  3. Karl hates to spend on luxury, but he does enjoy it when he receives it. This plaid scarf is subtle, classic, 100% cashmere but under $100 for a decadent accessory he will love to wear every day of winter. $99.50
  4. A beanie is a classic, but many have weird shapes, arenโ€™t that warm, or are made out of weird or itchy fabrics. This beanie has a knit exterior but a soft fleece interior that provides added warmth and better blocks cold gusts of wind. Available in four colors, it will be a welcome gift to open. $20.00
  5. Another style of glove Karl asked for was fingerless. He says itโ€™s easier when having to handle small things, and he feels all thumbs in E-tips. Iโ€™m considering getting him these convertible gloves, which have a mitten part that can cover the fingers but flip out of the way when necessary. Faux fur lining for coziness and a leather palm for grip, now I just need to decide which of the three colors to get! $75.00
  6. The winter runner in your life would appreciate this beanie and glove set. Made from Nikeโ€™s Therma-FIT fabric, the set traps in heat for added warmth and has comes in two color choices (the bright accents seen, or all black). $35.00
  7. Some of us have loved ones who are a bit of a dandyโ€ฆ they have a collection of bow ties, own a tuxedo, and know that the right accessories complete the look. I bet he doesnโ€™t own a top hat! This felt hat comes in brown or black and would show the man in your life you โ€œgetโ€ him and his sartorial choices! $83.00
  8. Karl has a pair of gloves very similar to these and theyโ€™re so badass. Stylish, classic, and very masculine, they only get better with time and have good grip on the steering wheel yet plenty of warmth for being outside. A pair of gloves like this take any outerwear up a notch and add a fashionable element without being too over the top. $89.50
