Five Star Gift Ideas

For your son who appreciates sustainable fashion and ethical clothing, you can consider a variety of thoughtful and meaningful gift options that align with his interests. Here are a few ideas:

1. Sustainable clothing: Look for organic cotton or bamboo-based clothing items that are not only eco-friendly but also stylish. There are a wide range of brands that prioritize sustainability, such as Patagonia, Everlane, or tentree. You can choose a cozy sweater, a pair of jeans, or a versatile t-shirt.

2. Ethical accessories: Consider gifting him some sustainable accessories like a vegan leather wallet or a cruelty-free watch made from recycled materials. Brands like Matt & Nat or Votch offer stylish alternatives that align with his values.

3. Second-hand or vintage clothing: Explore local thrift shops or online platforms specializing in vintage fashion, where you can find unique pieces that are sustainable and often more affordable than buying new. Vintage fashion is not only environmentally friendly but also adds a touch of individuality to one's style.

4. Subscription to sustainable fashion services: Another thoughtful option is to gift him a subscription to a sustainable fashion service. Companies like Rent the Runway or Nuuly offer monthly clothing rentals, allowing him to experiment with different styles and designers without contributing to fast-fashion waste.

5. Eco-friendly sneakers: If he loves sneakers, consider gifting him a pair from a sustainable and ethical footwear brand such as Veja or Allbirds. These brands offer stylish and comfortable sneakers made from recycled or natural materials, reducing the environmental impact associated with conventional footwear manufacturing.

6. Conscious fashion books: Help him deepen his knowledge in sustainable fashion by gifting him books like "To Die For: Is Fashion Wearing Out the World?" by Lucy Siegle or "Wear No Evil: How to Change the World with Your Wardrobe" by Greta Eagan. These books will inspire him and provide a deeper understanding of the industry's impact on the planet.

7. DIY eco-friendly fashion kit: For a more personalized gift, assemble a DIY sustainable fashion kit. Include items like organic fabric, sewing tools, and a guidebook with sustainable fashion project ideas. This will allow him to get creative and explore his own sustainable fashion ideas.

Remember, the most important aspect of the gift is to demonstrate that you support and appreciate his passion for sustainable fashion. Show him that you've taken the time to find something that aligns with his values.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
