We asked more than 20 creative people, including Bobby Hundreds, Christina Paik, Isaiah Toothtaker, Usugrow, Nite Jewel and Matt McCormick, among others, what they want for the holidays (and, yes, there’s a Hanukkah list too). There’s more than 75 gift ideas below, which include clothes, kicks, backpacks, electronics, skateboards, toys, books, DVDs, art, sculptures, knives, WWE belts and so much more. Basically, there’s something for everyone on your list, including you.

“Electric toothbrush cuz I refuse to floss,” Nite Jewel explains.

 

“Mountain valley water cuz L.A. water tastes weird and I’m afraid of lead,” she says.

CHRIS YEE

FUZI UVTPK

PETER YEH

Writer, poodle owner and connoisseur of San Gabriel Valley cuisine, Peter Yeh wants a Dodgers capNorth Face duffel, and the Folsom knife by James Brand.

“The best gifts are those you would never buy for yourself,” Peter says. “My Dodgers cap is over 12 years old and looks like it was owned by a curry-loving hobo, but you won’t catch me grabbing a new one unless there is a ‘World Series Champion’ patch attached. Until then, it would be great if someone else would spend the $35 because I sure won’t.”

“The medium size Base Camp has been through five countries and two continents with me,” Peter explains. “However, those tiny planes in Vietnam and Peru will occasionally force me to check the bag. I would just like to get the small, and pack less, in order to avoid the bullshit. Oh, I always opt for gold ’cause it’s easy to find my crap amidst all of the black duffels.”

EVAN ROSSELL

California-based artist Evan Rossell wants a Configure MacBook in Gold, 100 Krink K-750s, and a Gucci Canvas Duffel.

ALEX JENKINS

London-based illustrator and artist Alex Jenkins wants a Wacom tablet, a pair of old-school white Reebok Classics, a DVD of Russian film Come and See, and Codex Seraphinianus, “an odd but interesting book,” explains Jenkins, “written in its own language that still hasn’t been deciphered with lots of cool illustrations.”

MATT MCCORMICK

ALINA NGUYEN

Alina Nguyen, editor-in-chief of The Hundreds (pictured left above), wants Rahät Loukoum, a perfume by Serge Lutens; Orgasmo, an eau de parfum by Hilde Soliani; and the Unwound What Was Wound box set.

“This fragrance is beautiful and has almond, cherry, heliotrope, and Turkish rose notes,” Alina explains. “It’s supposed to smell like Turkish delight. I’m a sucker for almond fragrances and I love this, especially since the aldehydes make it smell a little synthetic and sparkly.”

“But [I also want] this intensely almond fragrance by this very wacko (in the best way) woman named Hilde Soliani. The fragrance is called Orgasmo and it smells entirely like sweet, syrupy almonds. Also, the label is so ridiculous—it’s her own face. It’s 100% me.”

“It’s the post-hardcore band’s entire discography and so beautiful.”

USUGROW

Japanese artist Usugrow wants black Vans slip-ons, a Henri Matisse book, and a Tokyo to LAX plane ticket.

DEFER

Defer, graffiti artist and fine artist known for his distinct letterforms, wants Bose QuietComfort 35 Headphones, a RVCA Grappler Jacket, and The North Face Borealis Backpack.

ANWAR CARROTS

Anwar Carrots, designer of contemporary streetwear label Carrots, wants the Fila x Min-Nano Beams T, a pair of Brooks sneakers, and an original painting by artist Stella Blu.

 

2SHAE

2SHAE, the artist who painted a mural at The Hundreds headquarters, wants KOBE XI basketball shoes, CRAOLA’s “Beyond the Sea” sculpture, a HUF x CHOCOLATE hoodie, a scissor lift, and Procreate for Mac.

 

ARIMA EDERRA 

Experimental R&B artist Arima Ederra wants people to contribute to, or share the stories of, families in need. She recommends a visit to the fund page for the 4-year-old twin daughters of Alex Ghassan, one of the victims of the recent Ghost Ship fire in Oakland. She also wants to encourage people to visit the fund page for the family of Aiden Amore Lewis, a 2-year-old who unexpectedly passed away last week. Lastly, she asks, “For everyone to take a moment out of their busy days and call a loved one to tell them how much they matter to you. Oh, and if I can sneak one more wish in, a smile and simple conversation with a stranger. You never know what someone is going through and something that simple could shift someones whole day. Plus, smiles are free.”
