Veja sneakers are everywhere. The brand’s Campo Sneaker is made from leather and suede with Veja’s iconic “V.” Veja has also teamed up with Asphaltgold to create its V-90 design. With more time in the sun, the leather evolves from grayish tones to warm yellow tones, giving the shoe a chic, worn appearance. The sneakers are extra cushioned but lightweight, with enough ankle and heel support for real distances. Veja shoes are perfect for taking long walks and errands in style and even have an active collection for fitness.
Nike Strength is perfect for building out your home gym, with a diverse range of products to tone and strengthen your body. The Nike Strength Shield Curl Bar is a perfect balance of style and performance, compatible with a wide range of plates so your loved one can level up their workouts as they gain strength. The bar comes in the iconic Nike orange, a pop of color in the typically monochrome fitness equipment world.
Lagree, a fitness method that combines Pilates, resistance training, and bodybuilding, is loved by A-listers like Kelsea Ballerini, Odell Beckham Jr., and Adriana Lima. For a Pilates lover in your life, Lagree offers both at-home reformers and brand-new apparel. For a big Valentine’s Day gift, the Micro also enhances home workouts, offering a full-body workout in a compact and transportable form. For buttery soft and high-quality apparel, the Skater Leggings are super comfortable yoga pants that pair perfectly with the Ice Breaker Bra and the Soul Train Long Sleeve.
A personal training session is a great way to revamp your loved one’s fitness routine, particularly if they have performance goals for the new year. If you live in New York City, the LIV Method is an ultra-personal training session with two locations: Midtown East and the Upper East Side. The company also offers virtual sessions for those not located in New York City. One of the best personal training sessions we’ve tried, the Liv Method focuses on injury prevention and performance optimization through an assessment of the client’s strengths and weaknesses. Through strength exercises, cardio, and dynamic mobility movements, the Liv Method is focused on optimization for both the short and long term. The locations in New York City also have an infrared sauna, a steam room, and a cold plunge, with other lux amenities, like a beautiful locker room and bathrooms.
Bells of Steel’s Competition Kettlebell comes in a pale pink color, a perfect Valentine’s Day gift for a loved one looking to strengthen and tone. The kettlebell has a smaller size and curvature, so it’s extra comfortable overhead during lifts. Its grip is also porous, absorbing chalk effectively for more comfortable high-rep workouts.

The Oasis Twist Medium Impact Sports Bra is supportive but fashionable, with a black and white design contrast.
For the triathlete in your life, H2O Audio’s Tri 2 Multi-Sport Series is the perfect accessory for pool or open-water swims. The headphones use bone conduction speakers that are designed for swimming, running, biking, and more, and stay put throughout even the toughest terrain. They’re 100% waterproof and have a built-in MP3 player to hold thousands of songs. Even when completely submerged, the headphones’ sound quality is clear and high-quality.
For a cozy coffee alternative, Sip Herbals is made from organic ingredients like roasted chicory root, roasted carob, and roasted dandelion root. With flavors like Peppermint Mocha, Pumpkin Spice, and Signature Roast, Sip Herbals can scratch your loved one’s coffee craving without the side effects of jitters and crashes. It’s also perfect for a guilt-free post-dinner treat.
To bring a little more zen to a loved one’s life, Moonbird is a handheld breathing coach to alleviate stress and improve sleep and recovery. As the Moonbird expands, inhale, and as it contracts, exhale. The device works with or without a phone, so your loved one can truly unplug if they want to. Best of all, Moonbird is small enough to fit in a purse or a pocket for breathwork on the go.
