The holidays are upon us, and you know what that means, listening to the same 5 songs in every single shop for the entire month, endless corny and cliched ads on the telly, and the subtle gift hints that no one, EVER, gets. But Christmas is about more than these things. It’s about giving as well as receiving, as anyone who has watched Mickey’s Christmas Carol (that Dickens business was way too much for me) should know.
In that regard, Oddballs apparel makes the perfect gift, because they donate 10% of all sales to testicular cancer research, and are committed to spreading awareness of this devastating disease and offer guides to checking yourself.
With that in mind, here are a few items on their site that we at RBP think would make for excellent christmas gifts.
Flip Flops:
The perfect footwear for beach outings, long journeys to matches, 7s tournaments and just about everything else, these flashy, stylish shoes are a good gift for just about anyone.
I wouldn’t recommend buying them for someone residing in Scotland because they’ll never really get to wear them (weather isn’t exactly conducive to it). Apart from that they are a pretty safe bet as a gift, and buying them in winter allows you to make them a bit of a gag gift as well!
Sports Tops:
With a plethora of different color schemes and patterns, these shirts make a excellent gift for the rugby player in your life (that line wasn’t cliche at all). Rugby players like to spend time in the gym, well the forwards do anyway, and we do need gear for such a journey, and these shirts are perfect.
Their semi-fit design enables them to make wingers look like they actually do work out, while allowing forwards to hide their beer belly six pack.
Comfortable, light, and durable, these shirts make for a great training shirt, and you’ll certainly stand out wherever you wear it.
Obble Hats:
Since we are now firmly in winter’s icy grip, keeping warm is a must, and that is where these nice warm caps will come in handy. Young kids love the things, and the color scheme is a perfect fit for that age band as well.
You can even get a Christmas themed hat as well, and although it’s not a santa hat it’s still just as seasonal and classy.
Christmas Oddballs Underpants:
A seasonal take on a true classic. These are comfortable, stylish, and best of all it shows just how into the Christmas spirit you really are.
The fun design features reindeer, presents, Christmas trees, and mistletoe (don’t get your hopes up lads) ticking all the Christmas boxes rather neatly in a very stylish package.
Oddballs Christmas Jersey:
If there is one thing that rugby players love, its rugby jerseys. Give us a Christmas themed one and we’ll go bananas. Firstly the fact that this enables you to match your shirt and your underwear is simply a revelation. Women will flock to you and that is a promise backed by science (my alchemists and abacus have confirmed this).
It looks good and is fitting for nearly every Christmas event and occasion, although maybe not Christmas mass.
