Fossil Men's Ingram Leather Trifold Wallet

Callaway Golf Supersoft Golf Balls (2023)

Streamlight 66608 MicroStream USB Flashlight
Socks in a stocking is a classic for a reason — but these are not the sad dress socks he already has ten pairs of. Merino wool, actually warm, and they hold up through every cold practice and muddy sideline.

The little knife that lives on his keychain and somehow opens every package, cuts every loose thread, and fixes whatever the boys break. The team colors are a bonus — he picked his favorite and pretended it was for the boys.
