The general consensus seems to be that gift cards make lame gifts. We’ve certainly agreed with that sentiment before, but today that all changes. Minnesota outfitter Askov Finlayson is offering the perfect last-minute Christmas gift: a gift card for their industry-leading, climate-positive Winter Parka, and they’re throwing in a $100 gift card for your personal use.

What is a “climate-positive winter parka,” you ask? We reviewed it last year, and basically you can think of it as a Canada Goose-level piece of outerwear, but every element is designed with the climate crisis in mind. It’s the perfect gift for anyone who leads an environmentally friendly lifestyle, but also for anyone who just needs a damn warm, timeless, hardwearing parka. 

Here’s how the deal works: Through midnight on December 24, you can buy a gift card for a parka and Askov Finlayson will immediately send it to your email, then within 48 hours they will also send you a bonus $100 gift card for their store that you can use in any way you see fit (we love their North hats). It’s better than a normal gift card because you can tell the recipient you didn’t want to get their jacket size wrong. And yes, that means you could also use this moment to finally buy yourself their Winter Parka while getting a little extra cash to spend on the side.
