Top 5 Travel Gifts
1) Plantar Fasciitis Compression Socks
OS1st: Plantar Fasciitis Compression Sleeve Natural - Medium
2) Silicone Organization Band 6-Pack
Organize, wrap, and corral with packing bands that can help out with many jobs. This set of durable and stretchy silicone bands comes with two of each different size. The bands can be linked to work together, or secure one to itself—there’s no metal parts to cause any scratches or snags. A band fits the bill for tasks like keeping clothes tidy in luggage (there’s even indicators for clean and dirty laundry), sealing open bags in the pantry and more.
3) Zero Waste Sustainable Starter Kit
This zero-waste sustainable starter kit makes plastic-free living a cinch at home or on the go. An eight-piece bamboo cutlery set, kitchen dish brush, pot scrubber, adult bamboo toothbrush, and expandable French market bag are included. All are reusable and made with eco-friendly materials.
4) Kozikicks Women's Slippers
From the work day to work outs, these versatile shoes can go anywhere with you. The flexible, form-fitting design contours to feet and provides comfortable support, no matter what you’re doing—relaxing, running errands, or walking the dog. Pull on a pair with plush, fleece-y lining perfect for cooler weather or perpetually cold toes.
5) Ultra Strong Trekking Poles
This set of strong trekking poles can make any outdoor excursion—from walks and hikes to backpacking and snowshoeing treks—more enjoyable. The adjustable aluminum poles have comfortable EVA foam grips and carbide spike tips for stability. They lend support on snowy or rocky terrain, or even pavement. And the lightweight, collapsible design makes it easy to take a pair along with you.
