Seriously good gifts, no bs.

Confused holiday gifters—we see you, and we understand you. With gift guides featuring hot sauce sets and boxer-short subscriptions floating around the internet, it’s easy to get discouraged by the mundanity of it all. So this year, our gift to you is this: unique ideas for all of the unique people in your life, from the friend who’d rather stay home and watch Bravo (the whole ZF staff) to the person who never cancels a workout (the ZF staff without children).

You can thank us later for your title as World’s Best Gift-Giver.
