As particularly passionate and opinionated individuals, automotive and motorcycle enthusiasts can be a tricky bunch to shop for when the holiday season rolls around — especially if you don’t happen to share their proclivity for vehicles and motorsport. Well aware of this reality, we’ve simplified this once-difficult process by rounding up the best gifts for the gearhead this holiday season. So, no matter what type of rides their into or what your budget is, we’re confident you’ll find something on this list that will resonate with the gearhead in your life. 

Piloti Shift Sneaker

Offering the performance, feedback, and feel of a regular driving shoe in a more stylish and fashion-forward package, the Piloti Shift Sneaker benefits from a host of advanced features including the brand’s patented Roll Control 2.0 heel tech, an ONSTEAM anti-microbial lining, a stability-bolstering steel torsion bar, and rounded sole edges that mitigate the likelihood of the sneaker catching while transitioning from pedal-to-pedal. 

HOONIGAN Gymkhana7 License Plate

Part of the brand’s Gymkhana SEVEN Throwback Collection, the HOONIGAN Gymkhana7 License Plate is a camo-clad homage to the late Ken Block’s 1,400-hp “HOONICORN” ’65 Mustang in the form of a custom license plate. 

Engine Organic Gin

Another stellar gearhead gift with ties to the late Ken Block, the Engine Organic Gin is a standard fifth of wheat alcohol-based gin that comes in a retro oil can-inspired tin.

The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride started with just a small group of friends but over the last decade has now grown into a global event with over 100,000 participating riders and roughly $40,000,000 raised for men’s charity — a story that’s chronicled in this new limited edition coffee table book entitled “DGR: A Decade of Dapper.”

SKRAM Fours

Comprised of a set of acetate frames housing a pair of shatterproof hard-coated polycarbonate lenses, the SKRAM Fours are a modern pair of aviator-esque sunglasses that were engineered for riding but are just as conducive to use as driving glasses or as a pair of everyday-use shades. 

Franzis Porsche Museum Edition 911 Boxer Engine Model Kit

Made up of 290 parts, the Franzis Porsche Museum Edition 911 Boxer Engine Model Kit is a 1:3 scale model of a vintage Porsche 911 six-cylinder Boxer engine with a clear case that allows its builder to see its moving crankshaft, piston, and vales, other working internals.
