(Family Features) Even in a world where just about anything is a few clicks away, finding the perfect gift for everyone on your list can still be a difficult task. One trick to winning the holidays is bringing back the basics by choosing presents you know your loved ones need and can actually use.
Consider these crowd-pleasing gift ideas to provide holiday smiles at the moment they're unwrapped.
The Gift of an Experience
An experience could be perfect for the person in your life looking to spice things up by taking on a new adventure. From a scenic helicopter ride to an exhilarating sky diving package, experiential gifts can be exciting undertakings. One of the best parts: these presents don't always have to be one-and-done - you can give the gift of a new life skill such as cooking classes or motorcycle riding lessons. Learn more about Harley-Davidson Riding Academy motorcycle classes by visiting your local dealership or H-D.com/LearnToRide.
The Gift of Traveling in Style
If you're interested in giving a present that inspires adventure, a piece of quality luggage may be all your loved one needs. A sturdy backpack is versatile and can be used for a hike on the nearest trail or a backpacking trip through another country. If the next trip is on the open road, an option like the Harley-Davidson Premium Touring Bag can help pack the necessities as you explore the world.
The Gift of Stocking Stuffers
Sometimes, it's the big gift ideas that are inspired naturally and shoppers find themselves scrambling to find stocking stuffers. This holiday season, don't overthink it. Stuff those stockings with things people need such as headphones, socks or a warm stocking cap.
The Gift of the Trends
Today's fashion trends dictate two outerwear items everyone should have in their closets: a denim jacket and a go-to leather jacket. If someone on your holiday shopping list has yet to jump on the trend, try styles like Harley-Davidson's Sherpa Fleece Denim Jacket for women or the Men's #1 Skull Slim Fit Leather Jacket for inspiration.
