How we chose these

We put this list together by thinking about who this person usually is, what they already tend to own, and what people commonly give in this situation. We have not bought or hands-on tested these items, and we don't rank specific brands. Each pick links to an Amazon search so you can compare options, reviews, and current prices yourself. Prices are rough ranges that change by store and season. If you buy through our links we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you, and that never decides what goes on the list.

Tip: Check your workplace's gift policy, and keep exchanges inclusive.
