✨ Gift Ideas with a Story – Our 2026 Christmas Gift Guide

AI MODIFIED - Three winter looks with REFISHED: Bum Bag made from fish feed sacks in front of a Christmas tree, orange Georg backpack in a lit alley, houndstooth tweed bag on a park bench

Hello, dear Fishy friends,

December arrives a little faster than expected every year. And suddenly you're standing there – with a list full of names and not a single idea. We know that feeling. That's why we're here: our gift ideas for 2026. Pieces with a story that won't disappear in the closet.

4 tips for more mindful gifting

Better one that lasts: Chip in together and gift something that will be used every day.
Useful beats decorative: What goes with you in everyday life will bring joy for longer.
Homemade counts double: Time and energy are the most valuable gifts.
Reuse packaging: Fabric scraps, newspaper, or last year's box.

What's inside a REFISHED gift?

Our FISH and CEMENT pieces are sewn from used fish feed and cement sacks – from material that would otherwise be thrown away. They are sewn by hand by our partner Rehab Craft Cambodia in Phnom Penh, where many sewers have physical disabilities. Each bag is signed by the person who made it. Get to know them here.
