You’re in the home stretch. Now it’s time to focus on one of the best parts of the holidays—the Christmas stocking. Here, our editors dig deep to offer some creative ideas for the adventurers in your life. —by Kate Siber, Rachel Odell Walker, and Erinn Morgan

Original Buff: The Original Buff ($20) can be a headband, neck warmer, beanie hat, facemask, tourniquet, and more. Made from paper thin microfiber, this loop of fabric wicked away head sweat during a run, served as a beanie under a bike cap, doubled as a scarf during a snowy hike, and even stepped in as a bunting for an infant when the weather worsened during a daily walk. —Rachel Odell Walker

Air: Nope, it’s not just bottled ether. Air—short for Alcohol Inspired Refresher—is the new drink that aims to satisfy those who are bored of beer but still ready to imbibe some malty goodness. The brand-new carbonated “malt beverage with water and natural flavors” ($1.50/12-ounce can) promises a refreshing doze of booze without the calories of beer. (A 12-ounce can rings in at 95 calories and 4% alcohol.) The concoction is light and nearly flavorless, like a cocktail of vodka and sparkling water. Perfect for stuffing a bit of libation variety in their holiday sock. —Kate Siber

Eagle Creek Specter Cube Set: Right on for the itinerant, obsessive traveler, the Specter Cube Set ($35) neatly organizes everything from hiking socks and underthings to gadget cords. This ultra-lightweight set of three cubes, which weighs less than 2.2 ounces all together, is fashioned of a see-through, translucent silnylon fabric that’s also used for lightweight tents. Bonus: This durable set is also water- and stain-resistant. —Erinn Morgan

Clean Ethics Bottle Bright: Designed for all the people on your list with grimy reusable water bottles, caked coffee to-go cups, and slimy hydration bladders, Bottle Bright ($11.95/tube of 10 tablets) effervescent tablets bubble up when combined with water to offer a biodegradable, chlorine-free, and non-toxic cleaning effect for the task at hand, according to Clean Ethics. Simple enough. The icing is that your purchase also has a global effect—Clean Ethics will donate an equal amount of Bottle Bright to people in developing nations who are in vital need of clean water containers. —Erinn Morgan

Snowpeak Titanium Spork: You certainly can’t go wrong with this stuffer—who doesn’t need a titanium spork? Snowpeak delivers with this lightweight piece of cutlery ($8.95), weighing in at a mere six ounces. Just right for the backpacker, hiker, kiddo, or cutlery snob in your life. —Erinn Morgan
