The Wishlist: 13 Best Travel Gifts for the Jetsetter in 2025

Travel is certainly ramping back up this time of year. But some of us know the joys of traveling all too well, whether we’re doing it for work or pleasure. Any frequent flyer will tell you that the gear we take with us can make or break how enjoyable our trips can be. This season, we’ve curated a guide to the best gifts to get the jetsetters in your life (even if that person is you), featuring items that will make traveling more enjoyable.

MINUS-8 Diver GMT

Since it debuted in 2013, MINUS-8 has aimed to shake up the watch industry with its industrial-focused designs that balance both timelessness and cutting-edge aesthetics. Featuring a lightweight 40mm PVD-coated Grade 2 titanium case, the California-based watchmaker’s Diver GMT gives you 200m of water resistance, and the ability to track two different time zones thanks to the Seiko automatic NH34 GMT movement, making this the perfect travel companion. Available in both monochromatic black and gray with matching titanium bracelets, the timepiece offers superb legibility under its sapphire crystal and features dual-color Super-LumiNova X1 Grade lume on the hands and hour markers.

Matador Global Travel Adapter

No need to overthink your outlet situation, as long as you come prepared with Matador’s Global Travel Adapter, which is compatible in over 170 countries and can even charge up to 6 devices at once.

Sunski Shoreline Sunglasses

Cheap sunglasses don’t have to look cheap. Sunski’s Shoreline shades are as gift-worthy as they come, and are a great travel option because of their comfort, style, and price — if you happen to lose them, it won’t set you back too much.

Peak Design Wash Pouch

Peak Design’s incredible range of bags can’t be ignored but its award-winning Wash Pouch is its most travel-friendly of the bunch. Constructed with recycled materials like the abrasion-resistant, waterproof 200D nylon shell, the Dopp kit is mostly revered for its thoughtful interior design that features five interior silicone-coated mesh pocket and a dedicated toothbrush compartment. Recently, it was made with this new Kelp colorway that we’re rather smitten about.

Roark Layover Pro Traveler Pants

Further blurring the line between sweatpants and chinos, Roark updated its Layover Traveler Pants with a new Pro version. Now, you have a more comfortable fit, a hybrid waistband, and a belt loop option. The cotton-nylon twill fabric has also been upgraded for comfort.

Nitecore Carbo 10000 Gen2

Nitecore recently updated its Carbo 10k power bank with IPX8 waterproof rating and incredibly impact resistance, all at just 6oz thanks to its carbon fiber shell.

Wingback Winston Wallet 

Don’t just settle for any ol’ wallet when taking your next trip. Capable of holding two passports, this handsome leather Winston Wallet from Wingback has been thoughtfully designed for traveling, holding both your essential cards and plenty of bills.

Titaner Titanium Dragon Pearl Pen

When your smartphone fails, it’s always good to have a tried-and-true pen to back you up. You never know when you need to jot down important information or even a new idea that comes to mind.  Setting out to make the perfect pen, Titaner thought of everything with its stunning Dragon Pearl, a titanium ballpoint that uses the metal on almost every component. 

HOKA Project Transport

Anyone who’s laced up a pair of HOKAs can attest that they’re likely the most comfortable shoes in existence — it’s why you see them so often in the terminal. Recently, the brand’s Transport commuter shoe got a more streetwear-forward version with a zippered shroud ripstop upper with water-resistant elements for unpredictable weather no matter where you land.

Okapa Luxury Water Bottle 

Who says water bottles have to be boring? Swiss entrepreneur Hardy Steinmann decided to make the first luxury water bottle with the Okapa, using medical-grade materials, surgical precision, and a design-forward aesthetic that looks like it belongs in your travel loadout.

JBL recently debuted their most sophisticated headphones yet with the Tour ONE M3, now featuring Spatial Audio and 360 head tracking. These are also perfect for travel because they come with a wireless transmitter that lets you pair them with analog devices.

Satchel & Page makes some of the best-looking travel bags on the planet, and its flagship Garment Bag is no slouch. Built with premium leather and incredibly durable, the bag is perfect for traveling with suits and even has a dedicated shoe compartment.

Rimowa Original Luggage Bronze Brown

Rimowa is arguably the most revered luggage brand in the world, known for its aluminum grooved suitcases. But this year, they pivoted towards a more classic iteration by adding a Bronze Brown colorway to three of its Original line suitcases, delivering a warmth to the series that the standard silver option might not afford you.
