This guide will show you some of the best gifts for outdoorsmen available online.
We all know that “one” person who loves the great outdoors more than their entire extended family.
That “one” who calls out Mother Nature’s name in the middle of a kinky session.
That “one” who is incredibly hard to shop for!
You can’t just get them a nice fruit basket and expect tears of joy followed by a heartfelt thank you speech.
To make that birthday or anniversary truly special, you need to get a present that pays homage to their one true love; one that will come in handy when tackling the untamed wilderness.
And we’ve scoured the web and found 10 amazing gift ideas that will make your outdoorsman howl in pure happiness!
1. The Miswak
It goes without question, if you know an outdoorsman who doesn’t already own a miswak then you definitely have to get them one!
This natural toothbrush will completely revolutionize their whole outdoor experience.
The miswak doesn’t require any toothpaste or water to get the job done.
So even if you’re in the middle of the Sahara, you’ll be able to get amazingly fresh breath thanks to the essential oils, and a thorough clean courtesy of the sodium bicarbonate.
Hey, it gets even better!
The Miswak has been scientifically proven to whiten teeth as a result of the naturally occurring silica; so your man might just get back from that hunting trip looking like he belongs on a magazine cover.
And this pair of natural toothbrushes by Miswak Club (Yes, that’s us!) not only comes beautifully cased, but is also completely chemical-free to keep those pearly whites in epic condition.
If you’d like to get 30% off your first miswak kit, please email us at hello@miswakclub.com
2. EARTH PAK WATERPROOF BAG
There’s nothing worse than reaching for your phone in the middle of a kayaking trip to play Angry Birds, only to find it drenched with water.
People have had heart attacks for much less! But with the Earth Pak, all your valuables are guaranteed to remain dry as a bone.
This bag is designed to keep water out no matter what the conditions are.
So whether someone is white water rafting, snowboarding, or would just love to keep the dirt out during a camping trip, Earth Pak will effortlessly get the job done.
You also look super macho carrying it too!
3. 26 PIECE PARACORD SURVIVAL KIT
It’s staggering just how many cool items are in this survival kit; you can pretty much set out and start a whole new civilization with one of these babies.
Every kit contains crucial outdoorsman equipment such as a thermal blanket, fishing kit, fire starter, first aid gear and emergency whistle… everything besides a power bank for Pokemon Go.
There is even a sewing needle thrown in there just in case you want to stitch ‘Mother Nature Wants Me!’ into all your clothing.
Hey, if you know a guy who loves the wild, they will undoubtedly love this too.
4. TRUEREST SINGLE PERSON HAMMOCK
What’s better than giving someone the gift of sleep?
It’s almost supernatural!
And you’ll be able to do just that with this amazing hammock from Blue Ridge.
It’s everything an avid camper would want: light, tough, easy to set up, and comfy enough to make them sing out in joy every couple of hours.
The TrueRest is particularly strong thanks to the densely-woven parachute nylon.
So strong in fact, that it can hold up to 400lbs!
5. SPORTSMAN POCKET CHAINSAW
Every outdoorsman needs to have a pocket chainsaw; we’re pretty sure that’s spelled out in the bible, somewhere in Leviticus.
And this particular one by Sportsman is as good as they come.
What really sets this bad boy apart from the competition is its long chain- a whole 36 inches!
This makes cutting through branches almost effortless.
And since these guys love you like that, they’ve included a free fire starter to light up all that wood you’ve been chopping all day.
6. ENGRAVED FOLDING KNIFE
Hey, if you want to see that manly man break down in tears and maybe even recite a moving poem of gratitude, then you need to get them this awesome pocket knife.
You can have any saying engraved into the beautifully designed rosewood handle, so every time they whip it out you’ll always be on their mind- so make it count!
And it isn’t just a sentimental piece; this baby is one hell of a knife.
The 3’ serrated blade works perfectly, and it comes with a nylon pouch that you can strap into your belt and look like a total badass.
7. NOTHERN OUTBACK FIREWOOD LOG CARRIER
Do you know what outdoorsmen love more than chopping wood?
Carrying it back in slow motion as they channel their inner rocky, that’s what!
And Northern Outback has designed a log carrier that is simply brilliant.
It features a supersized canvas body carrier with cross-stitched handles that run along the entire length.
This allows it to easily hold the weight of up to 10 logs without the risk of snapping.
Oh, Rocky would have loved this!
8. CLIPSTRIP AQUA LED LIGHT
They might not admit it, but even the manliest guys get a bit afraid of the dark.
So how about putting their mind at ease and getting them this insanely bright LED torch.
Packing a staggering 180 lumen, you can spot Big Foot coming from a mile away.
But the neatest feature about the Clipstrip?
Its waterproof design!
It keeps working like a charm even at a depth of 10ft.
So you can strap it to a kayak, jump off a waterfall at midnight, and it will live to tell the tale.
9. TOTAL OUTDOORSMAN MANUAL
Let’s observe a moment of silence; because this book is what you call sacred!
The Total Outdoorsman Manual has been helping humanity live off the land and avoid becoming mountain lion snacks for quite some time now.
And the 10th edition is even better.
Inside the hallowed pages, you find hundred of tips on camping, fishing, hunting and surviving.
It’s a guaranteed page-turner for anyone interested in taming Mother Nature.
10. SPYDERC0 TITANIUM FOLDING KNIFE
Oh it doesn’t get cooler than this!
This knife looks like it was forged in the belly of a volcano and stolen right from Batman’s waist (and we’re not saying it wasn’t).
Any outdoorsman will go completely bonkers once they see that premium stainless steel construction coated with stunning titanium.
The functionality is just as mind-boggling, with a 3.7 inch blade that cuts through just about anything.
