Gift Ideas for Every Style: A ’47 Brand Gift Guide

The best gifts come from the heart and have an element of personalisation and thought. A gift with their favourite team, a hat that suits their style, or an addition to their growing hat collection, headwear is always a good place to start, particularly for a variety of budgets and tastes.

From washed, vintage-inspired hats and classic team designs to beanies and everyday wear, ’47 combines classic sports heritage with relaxed style for premium fashion that suits all occasions. 

Finding a Gift That Feels Personal

Are you buying for someone all about understated neutrals, laid-back fits or a more structured, put-together look? Maybe they love a vintage-inspired aesthetic, or prefer to rep their favourite team with a standout logo.

Are they drawn to vintage-inspired pieces, or would they opt for a more recognisable team logo?

These details help narrow down your options. A washed hat suits someone who prefers a more relaxed look, while a structured cap like a HITCH silhouette is a better option for someone who likes a sharper shape. Or, for the animal lover in your life, the dog breed icons offer a variety of neutral caps branded with popular dog breeds, making them the perfect, personal gift for dog lovers.

A style they can wear often is usually a better choice than something too out there.

Christmas Gift Ideas

Christmas is a good opportunity to choose something they might not buy for themselves. Headwear, beanies, and casual clothing are all options, depending on the sort of gift you want to get them.

If you're buying a Christmas gift for someone whose preferences you're less familiar with, look for versatile designs and check sizing before ordering. If you’re unsure about sizing, it’s always a good idea to go for an adjustable cap.

Or, sticking with the Christmas colour theme, there is an abundance of deep Christmas green-hued caps, or bright crimson reds for a festive-themed gift idea.

Gifts for the Everyday Wardrobe

Headwear is a good gifting option for day-to-day wear, as it can be worn in different ways. From casual layers for the weekend to everyday outfits. The key is choosing a style that mirrors the taste of what they already own and wear.

Relaxed Hats

For someone who opts for a relaxed look, the CLEAN UP is a good place to start. Its relaxed silhouette suits everyday outfits, while washed finishes add a softer, worn-in look.

Choose a colour that fits their wardrobe. Black, navy and other neutral or understated shades are versatile, while a team design or more distinctive colour can add character.

Beanies for Cooler Days

A beanie is a practical option for colder weather and works well with casual outerwear, sweatshirts and knitwear.

Keep it simple with neutral colours for any occasion. A neutral beanie is easy to style, while a team design or a brighter colour adds a more personal flair.

Casual Clothing 

If headwear isn't quite right, consider an everyday layer. Sweatshirts and graphic Tees are a good option for someone who prefers comfortable clothing.

Clothing is slightly more personal than headwear; if you're unsure about sizing, an adjustable hat is a simpler option.

Thoughtful Gifts for Different Budgets

A good gift doesn't need to be expensive. Set a budget, then look for something that suits the recipient's style and interests.

Smaller Gifts

A hat or beanie has a lower price point, but still offers a premium-feeling gift. With a variety of materials, fits, and designs available, there’s a hat for all style preferences and budgets. Check out our gifts for under £30 for a variety of options within your budget.

Gifts for a Special Occasion

For a special occasion, look for a gift that reflects something specific or personal about the person. It could be a team they have followed for years, a silhouette they don't already own, or a colour that works with their wardrobe. You don't need to choose something unusual for the sake of it. A thoughtful variation on a style they already like can be just as effective.

For Someone Who Has Everything

Buying for the person who has everything already is a challenge. If they already have lots of clothes and accessories, consider what they wear most often. A different hat silhouette, a new colour, or a design can add a new option to their collection without feeling out of place.

Gift Ideas for Every Occasion

The occasion can help guide your choice, but the recipient's style should always come first.

Birthday Gift Ideas

For birthdays, personalisation is important; choose something that reflects their interests or everyday wardrobe. Choosing something neutral or that goes with everything is a good option for birthdays, as these colours go with everything and suit everyone, even those who don’t necessarily wear hats as part of their everyday attire.

Valentine's Day Gifts

For Valentine's Day, choose something that feels personal to your partner or that represents love. A deep red hat points a subtle finger towards the theme of Valentine's Day, whilst keeping in line with a premium fashion feel. Around Valentine’s Day, there are typically Valentine's-inspired collections released, featuring minimalist icons such as hearts, flowers, and wording. 

Mother's Day and Father's Day Gifts

For Mother's Day or Father's Day, look beyond traditional gift ideas and consider what your parent would actually wear.

If your parents spend a lot of time outdoors, a hat is a great option to keep hair out of their face or for an extra layer during windy, wet weather. Otherwise, a versatile colour and familiar silhouette may be the safer choice. If your parents are animal lovers, you can also take the more personal route with products such as our ‘Dog Mum’ or ‘Dog Dad’ hats.

How to Choose the Right Hat or Cap

A few important details can help you finalise your headwear choice and guarantee that someone will feel comfortable wearing it.

Consider the Silhouette

Do they prefer a relaxed shape or a more structured profile? Do they usually wear curved brims, snapbacks, or trucker styles?Choosing a similar silhouette is a key navigation point. You can stick to what they know, or, if you know that they like switching it up, you can consider a different silhouette.

Check the Fit

Some hats have adjustable fastenings, while others offer a more specific fit. If you don't know their size, an adjustable style gives more of a guaranteed fit than something size-fitted, but always check the product details before buying. If they already own a hat they like, its shape and fastening can help you narrow down the options.

Choose the Right Colour

Think about the colours they wear most often. Neutral shades are easy to incorporate into an existing wardrobe, while brighter colours or team designs may suit someone who likes their accessories to stand out.

Find a Gift That Feels Like Them

With gifting, it’s the thought that counts, and a good gift starts with knowing what someone likes. Whether that's a relaxed hat, a preferred sports team, or a simple everyday piece to elevate their wardrobe.
