The CNK Shopping Guide: SneakHER Gifting

From the pandemic, to social movements, and a history-making election, 2020 has been a whirlwind. With the year winding down, this year’s holiday shopping experience is looking real different. Most of us chose to skip Black Friday this year and opted for a safer online shopping experience. However, that doesn’t mean most of us aren’t planning on giving back to our community and some of the people closest during the season of giving.

Although some of the people on your gift list may be easy to shop for, you may find yourself stumped when it comes to what to get your favorite sneakHERhead. Should you splurge and get ‘em a shoe they’ve been eyeing all year? Should you just make it easy and get them a gift card? Something for their dedicated sneakHER closet (or for some of us it’s more like a sneakHER room)? Here, we break down some great gift ideas that we would be excited to find under the tree on Christmas morning.

We’re adding some of these items to our e-carts. Cross everyone off your list and then treat yo’ self, right?!
