Zippo Christmas Gift Ideas Review

Reviewed by Tammy & Anthony Wildblood 

With Christmas approaching it is always hard to know what gifts to get the people in your life, we were sent some great items by Zippo to try and this is what we thought:

Zippo Leather Bi Fold Wallet

I absolutely love this wallet! It is smart, elegant great smelling leather wallet. I’ve had wallets in the past that have been genuine leather and after a few days the smell goes away, but with this wallet, it still smells great after 5 days. I’ve been trying to find something seriously wrong with this wallet, just so I can go back to my old ruined tatty West Bromwich Albion wallet but I just cannot find anything wrong. The wallet is in a brown leather with red outer stitching around the edge (also available in Mocha) which makes it look high class and also makes it stand out from the rest. It is such a great product and I love the debossed Zippo logo but it’s not very noticeable if you prefer a plain wallet but just gives it that extra touch.

I’ve never been excited to own a wallet before but this is something that your proud to carry and get out when shopping. Once you open the wallet you can see that there is room for a couple of passport sized photos to showcase your loved one’s or just a photo if you choose. There is also meant to be room for 2 cards but I have actually put 6 cards in there and it could easily fit more in but that’s all I need. It also has got two holders for bank notes and I’ve got to say, it will easily hold a few notes. There is also a coin holder which I think is great, as not many wallets actually have them and find the coins just making holes in my pockets! The coin holder easily holds about twenty pound in £1 coins and once you’ve got a wallet full of cash some wallets bulge out and end up a mess but due to the wallet being a soft leather, this doesn’t seem to happen. I would recommend this wallet as the perfect Christmas or anytime gift for your special loved one; husband, partner, dad, uncle, grandfather or son as they would not be disappointed. The wallet also comes packaged in a brown box with the Zippo logo on and looks great. The price is amazing value for a genuine leather wallet and fantastic quality so at £24.90, you just cannot go wrong. I would happily pay more for this wallet so I think this is a steal at this price.

White Matte Lighter with Zippo Logo

This matte white lighter is what we think, the best of the best when it comes to windproof lighters! As a smoker myself, I have purchased a number of lighters over the years, and nothing even comes close to this. It’s small and compact, lightweight and it will easily fit into your pocket without any problem at all but it’s not too small so it’s easy enough to lose! What makes this lighter stand out from the rest is one click and the lighter works first time, unlike most lighters, if not all I’ve had, you always have to click them more them once and you even have to cover it with your hand to protect it from the wind but with the Zippo you don’t have to, I’ve even put it to the test and held it when the wind was blowing towards me and it stayed lit.

These lighters are a great gift for that special person who smokes or even needs one to light candles in the house, as they are refillable for a lifetime so will work out cheaper than buying disposable lighters and losing them all the time. It comes in its own little black box with the Zippo logo and looks well packaged so will make the perfect Christmas or anytime gift.

The best thing about Zippo lighters are that they can be personalised too, and there are numerous designs to choose from. Personally, I never would have chosen a matte finish Zippo lighter, I’m more of a shiny kind of lighter person but after receiving this matte white lighter… I absolutely love it!! The only issue I have now, is that, I now have to fight my wife for it, so it looks like I’m going to be buying one as a Christmas gift for her otherwise mine will be going missing soon.

If you look after this White Matte Zippo lighter then it will look after you and if it happens to have a breakage then Zippo have a guarantee that “it works or we fix it” so for £23.75, that is an absolute steal! Think of how much it would cost you in a lifetime in disposable lighters… it’s not hard to spot a bargain when you see one is it?

Zippo Leather Passport Holder

I must admit, I’ve never really bothered with buying a passport holder in a good few years as the ones I’ve bought in the past haven’t been that great as they’ve been too hard, and actually taken up more room, but this has certainly changed my mind! This is not your ordinary passport holder because passport holders that I’ve had have been where you just put your passport in it and shut it and that’s it, they’ve also been hard to the touch and don’t seem to fold properly with your passport in. This Zippo Passport Holder is completely different and stands out from the rest. It is genuine leather and so soft to the touch, it has a simple sleek design with its red stitching and the debossed Zippo logo. It also has compartments for cards, there are 4 spaces but can easily hold a lot more. There is also the holder for your passport but there is another larger compartment where you could keep receipts for all those duty-free goodies. Personally, I think this could be used for other things as well as passports, especially in business for receipts and cards. This passport holder is worth every single penny, it’s ideal for when you want to travel in style as it smells great and looks elegant in its brown genuine leather (also available in Mocha) with red stitching. This passport holder will fit into a handbag, a coat pocket, back pocket of jeans and you won’t even notice that your carrying it as it is so soft and light.

The price is amazing value for a genuine leather passport holder and fantastic quality so at £16.75, you cannot go wrong and will not be disappointed!!

Why not buy your loved ones all of these gifts as a Christmas or anytime present and they shall not be disappointed! I love them all and shall definitely be recommending them to other people to buy as gifts and if fact, I think the lighter is the perfect present for my brother as well as my wife so I’ll be buying at least two. These will make ideal Christmas presents for those loved ones who you are not sure what to buy for as they are elegant, classy, well made, guaranteed and come gift boxed… you can’t get better than that for the price.
