The final product is of the highest quality and soft to the touch.

9. Bruno Mars 24 K Magic | For the music lover on your list, vinyls are always great gifts! And don't worry, they usually come with digital downloads as well. We're obsessed with Bruno Mars' (we call him Bru Bru) newest album. It has an old school Michael Jackson feel and his sweet sweet pipes can do no wrong.

10. Bose Soundlink III Bluetooth Speaker | Carrying music around with us everyday has become normal, and carrying around a lightweight, compact bluetooth speaker is the perfect way to share with your friends or amp up any space you habitat. The sound is awesome, the battery life is long (up to 14 hours), and it's super user friendly.
$320 | Find it local at your local Bose store | Online at bose.ca
11. Red Wing Shoes Care Kit | We spend a lot on our shoes hoping they last, so why not take care of them the best we can? The Red Wing Care Kit comes with leather conditioner, mink oil, boot cream, a brush and a cloth to keep any shoe-lover's leather looking brand new.
$45.00 | Find it local at gravitypope | Online at redwingheritage.com
