Christmas Gift Guide: The Perfect Stocking Fillers for your Tradie!

If the Christmas stock in the supermarkets and adverts on tv hasn’t given you the hint, Santa Claus is coming to town!

If you have someone in your life who’s in the construction industry or a tradesperson, we’ve come up with a little list of ideas to help you find those gifts!

1. Novelty Roofer/Tradesperson Shirt

Who doesn’t love a good pun or funny picture? There are lots of fun t-shirts available all over Amazon and Etsy. The Evolution of Man Roofer from Amazon is a favourite of ours.

2. O'Keeffe's Working Hands Hand Cream

O’Keeffe’s Working Hands Hand Cream is pocket-sized and highly recommended by a multitude of tradespeople and has an overall rating of 4.6 stars on Boots. 

3. EVERSEE Magnetic Wristband

This wristband is Amazon’s best seller scoring over 4.5 stars in comfort, weight, sturdiness, durability and value for money! It includes 15 super strong magnets to keep hold of those nails, screws and allen keys.

4. Thermal Underclothing

So many of our beloved tradies work outside in all weathers and when it’s cold and wet we, of course, want to make sure they are kept as warm as possible. Thermal underclothing is a great gift that would be used on the regular and appreciated. Mountain Warehouse has a great selection of thermals, ranging from XXS to 4XL.

5. Neck Warmer & Thermal Gloves

Linking back to keeping our tradies warm, this 3 piece hat set is brilliant. They are fleeced-lined and super cosy! The gloves are gripped with 3 conductive fingertips so you can easily use your phone while out in the cold.

6. Magnetic Torch

The Big Larry 2 is shock and corrosion-proof and has a magnetic base and two light options. The light is diverse with various options, including a bright spotlight with dimming options, a work light, and a red light with dimming and flashing variables. This light has an overall 4.8-star rating and is recommended by 99% of Argos’s customers.

7. DAB Jobsite Radio

Who doesn’t like a little music while working? DAB radios are brilliant and can come with Bluetooth so those tradies can sing along to some of their favourite songs by connecting their phones. There are so many varieties and options with a wide price range and different features. 

8. Apple AirTags & Cases 

We think that Apple AirTags and these armoured cases are excellent gifts for your tradies and works-people. So many workmen and women are victimised by theft of the content of their vans and the vans themselves and AirTags are a cost-effective way to track their expensive tools. They are also great to keep on their keys, we know they get misplaced so often.

9. DeWalk 16-in1 Multi-Tool

The DeWalk 16-in-1 Multi-Tool is the swiss-army knife of pocket pliers! With 97% of reviewers recommending this product is easy to use and super handy for around the home and whilst on the clock! 

10. AeroPress Coffee Maker

The AeroPress Coffee Maker is a “revolutionary coffee maker” that you can take on the go. It's lightweight and portable, has fresh coffee ready in 30 seconds and is eco-friendly! You can see how easy it is to use here!

These are just a few ideas to help inspire you with gift ideas for your tradie loved ones. Alternative brands are available at various prices to suit your Christmas budget this year.
