We may earn commission from links on this page, but we only recommend products we love. The one thing I learned from asking my fellow Gen Z editors and friends what’s on their holiday wish lists? And when you’re trying to buy us a gift, good luck figuring out the products we’re still coveting—and which once-viral finds are no longer en vogue.
As an editor with years of experience curating gift guides for everyone on your list, I’m noticing a theme among popular Gen Z gifts. We want nostalgic touches, pretty little luxuries, and hobbies that give us a reason to put our phones down. So whether you’re shopping for your younger sibling, the Secret Santa coworker you barely know, or your bestie who always knows what’s going viral first, consider this your cheat sheet to gifting the hardest-to-shop-for generation.
Everyone has a digital camera and the cutest bag charms—but a mini camera keychain? I couldn’t be more obsessed. The Kodak Charmera is a tiny, functional digital camera you can take anywhere without sacrificing precious purse space.
It even has a screen, so you can see what you’re shooting as you go. Our readers love gifting and receiving lululemon’s Dual Pouch Wristlet—and it’s easy to see why. This wristlet keeps the essentials close since it’s equipped with a pouch, card holder, and strap that can loop around your wrist or clip onto a bigger bag.
It comes in so many cute color combos, too. A towel warmer is the unsung hero of my cozy winter days at home—which is why it’d make the perfect luxurious gift. Yes, it’ll keep their towel nice and toasty post-shower, but I love to use mine to warm up throw blankets, my pajamas, robes, and even my plush socks.
The hottest accessory for Gen Z? A pair of AirPods—they practically never take them off, even when they aren’t listening to anything. Featuring active noise cancellation and transparency modes, they can block out everything when it’s time to focus, or be tuned to let in outside noise for safer outdoor walks and runs.
