Want to take the guesswork out of shopping for loved ones? Ask them what they want.

Recently, I read about the idea of a gifting jar—a jar filled with pieces of paper labeled with a need or want for a gift idea, along with the requestor’s name. The giver can select a paper or two and fulfill the wish list item while still keeping the surprise element.

We just started implementing this idea in our house, and I’m sharing a few of the wish list items labeled “Joe” and marked “For Father’s Day” with you below.

GORUCK – GR1 1000D Slick 21L

$295

A bag that knows how much details matter.

Flint and Tinder – 365 Shorts

$64

The go-anywhere-feel-great shorts. The summer staple of Joe’s wardrobe (he’s in 365 pants when it’s cold outside).

Snake River Farms – First Class Filets Pack

$375

For showing off on the grill.

REYR Gear – First Cast Fly Rod – 4wt

$279

 For the budding fishing hobbiest.

Gestalten – Nordic Cycle

$40

For the cyclist dreaming up future trips.

Raen Optics – Aren

$175

A cool twist on a classic silhouette.
