Cozy Gifts 

Winter is made for sitting around the fire and relaxing at home in your comfiest clothes. Take your loved one’s favorite pair of PJs to the next level by adding new slippers to the outfit! Here are our top picks:

1. Vionic Slippers – Not only do Vionic slippers have soft linings, a variety of styles, and soothing colors, but they also have arch support that can’t be beat! Try the Alfons for men’s slippers and Relax for women’s slippers.
2. UGG Slippers – UGG boots are known for their soft faux-fur interior, and their slippers are no different! Go from UGG boots by day to UGG slippers by night for 24/7 coziness.
3. Haflinger Slippers – Our most popular slipper brand at Stan’s, Haflinger slippers regulate the temperature of your feet, wick away moisture, and provide support and breathability. 

Gifts for Athletes

Athletes can be both the easiest and the hardest people to shop for. Make sure they’ll get something they love with our top picks for athletes. 

1. Running Shoes: Stan’s carries the top running shoes on the market for performance, comfort, and fit. Runners, walkers, and movers of all kinds will love New Balance’s cutting edge technology, On Running’s lightweight support, HOKA’s signature cushioning, and Brooks’ approachable fit.
2. Athletic Socks: A running shoe is useless without a good sock to go with it. Feetures and Smartwool offer running socks that ensure breathability, moisture-wicking, cushioned comfort, and more.
3. Running Apparel: For a full range of running gear, visit Goodmiles Running Company in Brookfield and Greenfield or shop goodmilesrunning.com.

Gifts for Travel

With travel back on this rise, now is the perfect time to buy gifts for your most adventurous loved one. Here are a few of our top recommendations:

1. Anti-Theft Bags: Travelers carry a lot of valuable documents, credit cards, and more, so protecting those items is a top priority. RFID bags from Baggallini and Travelon provide protection for travelers’ finances and identity so anyone can travel in peace (and style!).
2. Compression Socks: Elevation changes and lots of walking can be stressful on feet, ankles, and calves, so compression socks can provide much needed relief. Help regulate blood flow with socks from Sockwell, Feetures, and more.
3. Waterproof Sandals: Just because it’s winter in Wisconsin doesn’t mean sandals aren’t a great gift. For anyone anticipating a beach vacation, sandals from Birkenstock, Olukai, TEVA, and more make the perfect present.

Gifts for Trendsetters

We all know someone whose fashion is always on-trend. Help them stay in style with some of this season’s hottest designs.

1. Loafers: Business casual isn’t just for the office anymore. Pairing loafers with jeans, dresses, and more is on the rise, and both men and women can style this trend with ease. Shop men’s loafers from Pikolinos and Florsheim, or shop women’s loafers from Hassia and Vionic.
2. Tall Boots: Knee-high boots are back and better than ever, so the trendy women in your life will love sky-high styles from Vionic, Pikolinos, and Dansko.
3. Birkenstock:  Birkenstock never goes out of style. Go beyond the classic sandal with the Tik-Tok favorite Boston clog, or try slippers or sneakers for a new experience of Birkenstock’s classic cork footbed.

Gifts for Kids

Make it a family affair with kids shoes that match Mom and Dad’s! Many of our most popular adult styles come in kid’s sizes as well, so the whole family can look and feel picture-perfect. Here are some of our favorites.

1. Kids’ Birkenstock: Share the comfort of Birkenstock’s cork footbeds with your youngest fashionista! They’ll be supported and stylish in kids’ sandals from Birkenstock.
2. Kids’ Winter Boots: Keep those growing feet warm and dry with high-quality winter boots. Sorel and Kamik make cozy and waterproof styles that are perfect for those little feet!
3. Kids’ Sneakers: It’s never too early to show kids what top-tier performance and fit feels like. Kids’ New Balance and Tsukihoshi styles are the perfect introduction to shoes they’ll someday love as teenagers and adults.
