10 Outdoorsy, Sustainable Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas for Her

Sharing is caring!

It’s that time of year again: Valentine’s Day. The time of year we’re all obliged to tell someone we love them. And while we think the history of Valentine’s Day is pretty dang weird, we never mind an excuse to dote upon ourselves or loved ones, especially if it involves sustainable outdoor gear. So if you or your special someone care as much about getting outside to play as protecting the giant natural playground we call home, then her are 10 outdoorsy, sustainable Valentine’s Day gift ideas for her.

And because we don’t believe in perpetuating gender stereotypes in the outdoors, yeah, most of these items make great gifts for men, too. But if you’re looking for more ideas for the dudes, check out our Outdoorsy, Sustainable Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas for Him while you’re at it.

Outdoorsy, Sustainable Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas for Her

Valentine's Day Gift Ideas for Her: Houdini Mono Air Houdi in slate blue.

Houdini Mono Air Houdi

Could there be a more sustainable outdoor brand? Houdini isn’t just talking the talk, they’re walking the walk. They put an emphasis on circular manufacturing (which means items can be made of recycled materials, then recycled, then made into new products…) but take it a step further by releasing their science and processes so other brands can replicate them, thereby encouraging a more sustainable world. One item in particular we love: the Mono Air Houdi. Not only is it Bluesign approved, made from recycled materials and recyclable, it also utilizes an innovative fabric construction that prevents microplastic shedding, which is huge! Order one here.

Valentine's Day Gift Guide: Tentsile Una one-person tree tent.

Tentsile Una

Is your lady all about those solo adventures? Or maybe she just doesn’t like sharing her tent space. This is the camping setup for her! The one-person Tentsile Una is a perfect cross between a tent and a hammock and provides a stable, super comfy sleeping surface, not to mention a great place to lounge while you cook dinner over the camp stove. She’ll absolutely love it, we promise. Find one here!

EcoVessel insulated water bottle in ombre blue and green.

EcoVessel

Not all water bottles are created equal. Sure, we love our Nalgene for rugged outdoor activities, but for around town, we prefer something that keeps our hot drinks hot and our cold drinks cold and looks good doing it. With its three-walled insulation and dope color options (get a load of that ombre!), the EcoVessel definitely fits the bill. Order one here.

Valentine's Day Gift Ideas for Her: A gift experience box from Authenteco Travel

Wolf&Grizzly Fire Safe and Grill

Listen, dudes shouldn’t get to have all the fun with fire, which is why we’re shaking things up and suggesting you get her a Wolf&Grizzly Fire Safe and Grill Kit. It’s a super portable fire pit perfect for backyard s’mores parties, road trips, dispersed camping, you name it, and she needs one. Read or watch our whole review here, then give the gift of fire!

Valentine's Day Gift Ideas for Her: Rafi Nova Crossbody bag with multicolor fabric.

Rafi Nova Crossbody Bag

If your sustainably-minded and travel-ready lady likes to get fancy every once in a while, she needs a unique, eco-friendly bag that still says “I’m worldly!” (In the best possible way.) The Rafi Nova Crossbody is that bag. Made with colorful upcycled fabrics, recycled materials and vegan leather, it’s a swanky (and quality) accessory she’ll love. Find one in her favorite color or pattern here.

Gift guide for outdoorsy women: Fjallraven high coast lite pants in navy.

Fjallraven High Coast Lite Pants

Every woman needs another pair of multi-purpose hiking/climbing/lounging/around town pants. Always. And these High Coast Lite pants from FjallRaven fit the bill perfectly. They are super-duper light and breezy, impressively stretchy, have all the pockets, and look good going from the trail to the crag to the food truck park to the couch. Plus they’re made from recycled nylon and don’t feel all rough and scratchy like some synthetic pants can. They might be my new favorite pair. Get some here.

Etee bamboo toothbrushes with replaceable heads.

etee Sustainable Travel and Outdoor Kit

Ditch the non-recyclable toothpaste tubes, endless plastic travel bottles of shampoo, scented lotions she doesn’t really want, and those crappy plastic folding toothbrushes. Instead, get her a sustainable travel- and outdoor-ready kit she’ll be stoked to take on her next adventure. Etee offers more sustainable (and plastic-free) replacements for all of the above, from perfectly portable toothpaste tabs to shampoo, conditioner and lotion bars, to bamboo toothbrushes with replaceable heads (that also work great as an ultralight toothbrush for backpacking when you take it apart and only pack the head). Put it all together in an upcycled box and she’ll be head-over heels for the sustainability of it all.

United By Blue adjustable neck gaiter and face covering in olive.

Organic Cotton Adjustable Neck Gaiter

It wouldn’t be a Terradrift gift guide without something from United By Blue. We just love their commitment to sustainability (and their dope clothing and gear). This Valentine’s Day, we think she’d like an infinitely useful adjustable neck gaiter. It’s made from organic cotton, comes in cool colors and patterns, and doubles as a face covering during pesky pandemics. It’s fully adjustable thanks to a bungee cord on the top and bottom, plus it’s super soft and cozy. Perfect for all sorts of winter fun! Pick one out here. Bonus: it’s on sale PLUS you can take an extra 50% off with code BYEWINTER.

Terradrift organic cotton Tee.
