YOLO’s 2025 Gift Guide



Each year, we try to take a slightly different approach to our gift guide—last year it was all about things with a true sense of place. This year, we thought about all the hard-to-shop-for characters in our lives, and spent hours hunting for the gifts they don’t even know they want. The result of all that online and IRL research is a few hundred ideas, organized by archetype: the host who has everything, the Resy power-user who’ll book a flight just because they scored a hot table, the constant traveler who origamis everything into a carry-on, your Gen Alpha nieces and nephews with strict screen-time rules, and so many more. (Plus bonus stocking-stuffers at the end.) And if you recognize yourself in any of the below, there’s no shame in dropping a hint!
