The holiday season is quickly approaching, and before you know it, it'll be time to exchange gifts with some of your favorite people. I sometimes can be a last-minute gift shopper (and end up regretting it every single time), but this year, I'm going in prepared. With shipping times still taking longer than usual and products going out of stock faster than you can think about buying them, it's important to get ahead of the game this holiday season. When I put thought and effort into a gift, it makes the opening reaction even better. Do you know what else makes it better? When the gift is special and not something that everyone is giving. This is why I took the time to find the perfect gifting items made by some of our favorite small brands here at Who What Wear. While anyone can just walk into a retailer and pick out a gift, it's a special someone who'll go out of the way to order something that's not only unique but that's also handpicked because they know the recipient will appreciate it.
I know the holiday season can be quite busy, so I'm hoping this list can offer some additional support. If you have a loved one who appreciates including small brands in their arsenal or if you simply want to expand your gifting destinations from the average mall retailers, you'll be pleased with the special selection below. Who knows, maybe you'll even end up treating yourself to something—I wouldn't blame you. Keep scrolling to get ahead of the holiday season. It's never too early to plan ahead.
All of the products featured are available for purchase via the Shop app, powered by Shopify, and have been independently selected by Who What Wear editors for this article.
