Last Minute New Balance Gifts for the Men on your List

My husband and father are two of the most difficult people to shop for during the holiday season. They each tell me every year "I don't need anything." Well, of course you don't need anything, the holidays are about getting what you want. So, after poking and prodding and asking tons of questions about what they want, I finally have a list to work with. Here are a few items that were on their lists and some will be under our tree!

XT Running Glove
Neither my husband or my father run competitively, but these technical runnning gloves showed up on both of their lists. These gloves have a high density gel on the palms for extra grip; so scraping ice off cars, shoveling snow, or just driving are a little easier in these technical gloves.

Sneaker Balls
Gym bags are the worst; they collect dirt and trap odor. Sneaker balls go right into running shoes, cross trainers, etc. and freshen the inside of the shoe with a clean scent. So, gym bags won't be so scary to open anymore!

Gear Short
Comfy shorts with lots of uses. Guys can grab the Gear Short and head to the gym or wear lounging at home. My husband has three pairs, no kidding! And the New Balance Gear Short was recently featured in the December issue of Men's Health magazine as part of a "well stocked gym bag." Now, who can argue with that recommendation?

So, those are my favorite guy picks for Last Minute gifts. Whether the men in your life are weekend warriors, muscle men, marathoners, or everyday athletes, there is always something for them under the tree and in their gym bag!
