As any plant-based eater can attest, going vegan is fulfilling…but it can also be a bit overwhelming. From having to read ingredient labels really carefully, checking menus before agreeing to dinner plans, and looking up if shoe brands use real or faux leather/fur, being vegan can be a full lifestyle change, depending on where someone lies on the plant-based spectrum.
The same goes for choosing the ideal vegan gift for your plant-based bestie or cool aunt. What do you get your loved one who’s cut out all animal products? Hint: Butter cookies or a leather handbag are probably out of the question.
But, don’t worry—you don’t have to spend endless hours searching the internet for the best vegan-centric gifts. Thankfully, there are several vegan editors here at Women’s Health who have gotten tons of gifts over the years (and have lots more on their wish lists!).
And, because not all vegans are the same, there are lots of ideas below for every type of vegan in your life, from luxury faux leather handbags to funny, affordable gifts from Amazon. Without further ado, see below for the 35 best editor-approved gifts the vegans in your life actually want, whether it be for their birthday, Christmas, or just because.
