Shopping for someone who’s always on the move, whether in the gym, on the field, or outdoors, can feel tricky – often because there are SO many sports options out there, but the truth is, sporty people love gifts that support their lifestyle whilst keeping them motivated and being good quality items. Here are some top gift ideas to inspire you:
1. High-Performance Activewear
I don’t think sporty people can ever have too many leggings, shorts, or training tops, personally, I always look for moisture-wicking fabrics that keep workouts comfortable while still looking good! Below I’ve linked a few options that I’ve got myself off of Amazon, they’re so comfy and allow me to have full movement whilst being active, and most importantly – they feel and are good quality! The sports bra below makes me feel supported and confident in the gym, and the long sleeved top is so lightweight I was surprised not to get too hot in it!
2. Smart Water Bottle
Hydration is a big deal, and a smart water bottle that tracks intake and gives reminders is such a cool, practical gift. I know for myself that I drink much more when I have a water bottle constantly near me or on me, it motivates me to have regular drink breaks.
3. Fitness Tracker or Smartwatch
If you really want to splurge, a smartwatch is an amazing gift. It tracks workouts, sleep, steps—basically everything a fitness enthusiast geeks out over. The watch linked below on the left is your average, basic, highly popular fitness watch that has strong reviews and works well for your everyday active person, the watch on the right is a more hardcore, professional version that is for the real passionates of sport.
4. Sports Bag or Backpack
A good sports bag with lots of compartments is a lifesaver. It keeps shoes, clothes, and gear organized, and it’s something I’ve found people often forget to upgrade for themselves. I’ve linked below the bag I use on an almost daily basis.
5. Outdoor Adventure Gear
For sporty people who love the outdoors, I usually think about hiking backpacks, insulated water bottles, or even a portable hammock. They’re practical and encourage more adventures.
