Fashionable and Comfortable Designer Sneakers for Men and Women
What’s one thing that every budding fashionista or trendsetter tends to have a lot of – footwear. That’s right, there are never too many shoes for those who love fashion. Even men! With that in mind, why not gift a pair of Fendi sneakers to your man and you’ll be giving him something that is incredibly fashionable but also functional and comfortable.

Scroll through the list of men’s Fendi sneakers and find a pair that screams high-fashion, while remaining comfortable and easy to wear. SSENSE doesn’t just carry men’s designer sneakers; you’ll also find a wide range of women’s’ options for all the special ladies on your list.
Soft and Luxurious Leather Gloves
Living in Montreal means you’re in for some very cold winters, so it’s absolutely necessary to bundle up. The problem with bundling up is that it isn’t always the most fashionable look you end up with. This brings us to the next high-end fashion item on the list, and that’s a pair of soft and luxurious leather gloves. This gift is a hit with men and women, and you can go with basic black or brown since they work with any colour jacket.
As you look for those perfect gloves be sure to also focus on the interior material, as those with insulation and lining will obviously be more comfortable in the dead of winter.
You Can’t Go Wrong with Cashmere
Here’s a fabric that is so high-end and gorgeous that it gets a category all to itself. Cashmere is easily one of the most luxurious, cozy, and comfortable fabrics to own and both men and women can find a variety of options. Choose from a cashmere cardigan or pullover sweater, or even a wrap or shawl for the ladies.
It’s important to note that when you are shopping for cashmere there can be a real difference in quality, plus the amount of cashmere in the fabric will make a substantial difference. Something with just 50% cashmere isn’t going to feel as plush and high-end as an item that is 100% cashmere. Obviously, you want to aim for the higher count.
Place a Designer Purse Under the Tree
If you happen to be buying for a woman, a designer purse could be the perfect gift to place under the tree. Not only are these high-end and fashionable, but they also tend to be the kind of piece that you can hang on to for many years to come. They use better quality fabric, stitching, and hardware so you get a nice purse that also looks like a piece of artwork.
And while you’re at it, why not purchase the matching designer wallet to go with the purse.
Bundle Up with a High-End Parka
Finally, there is no better way to beat the chill here in Montreal than with a high-end and stylish parka. Look for something that is wind and water-resistant to ensure it will hold up to anything the climate throws at it.
Typically, the warmest and most luxurious parkas are down jackets, available for both men and women. Down is able to keep your body incredibly warm and essentially insulate it, yet it weighs very little and can feel quite cozy. Down jackets use geese or duck under feathers that work to create tiny air pockets. It’s these air pockets that will trap the heat in.Down comes in a variety of different qualities that are measured by “fill power”. The best fill power rating is 750-900.
A couple of other shopping tips are to look for a parka that has cuffed wrists and waist in order to keep the wind and chill out, lined pockets for keeping hands extra warm, and a hood to provide that added layer of protection on a cold, windy, and wet day.
Consider the Gift Buying Done
So, before you get too worried about the fact you still have a few people to buy for, this gift buying guide can act as the perfect resource for the fashion-savvy people in your life.
