Holiday Gift Guide For Globetrotters | RES IPSA

With so many holiday gift guides flooding our social media streams, news articles and more, it’s easy to feel a bit too caught up in the rampant consumerism that is often associated with major holidays.

Is love really measured in pricy Scandinavian-inspired bathroom accessories for Dad, or customized cat socks for Grandma, as one (slightly eccentric) gift guide suggests?

This is not to say that your dad wouldn’t love a lavish toothbrush holder, and Granny wouldn’t be over the moon for wool socks blazoned with her beloved feline’s face. We’re not even saying we don’t love holiday gift guides. Everyone here at Res Ipsa are avid readers of the Travel and Leisure annual guides.

We’re just saying we get it. It all feels like a bit too much at times...but what is Christmas without presents? How do you get something of value that you know he/she will treasure?

As one wise old soul once said:

“Travel is the Only Thing You Buy that Makes You Richer”

Made famous by inspirational stock photos, this quote (while cheesy) does a pretty good job of summing up our feelings here at Res Ipsa.

The inspiration for all we do comes from our travels. In fact, our famous kilim shoes wouldn’t even exist if it hadn’t been for one fateful trip to Istanbul.

While the experience is of the utmost importance, even the best of trips have some unpleasant in-between moments. From tiny airplane seats to a particularly bumpy tuk-tuk ride, every step of the way can be made easier and more enjoyable thanks to clever products.    

We’ve put together some of our favorite luxury travel gifts for the globetrotter in your life. This holiday gift guide is perfect for people who love the journey as much as the destination. It’s essential to find travel bagsbackpacks, and other travel accessories that are every bit as trendy and comfortable as they are enduring and sensible to routine, everyday wear.

Here’s the solution. We designed a different kind of backpack. With enough room to hold travel essentials, Res Ipsa kilim backpacks make the perfect daypack for your adventurous globetrotter to bring on their next adventure.
