The holiday season has arrived, so we’re arming you with The Cannabist’s gift guide for 2016.
It’s our third annual compilation — when shopping for weed gifts, it just keeps getting better and better. This year, a head shop revolution is changing the game with highly curated selections of stylish smoking accoutrements that actually fit into our lives. And as we suspected, haute couture is even more on board with the likes of Alexander Wang putting pot on the runway. Legalization continues to spread and business is still booming, elevating cannabis culture into a regular part of our lifestyle.
In no particular order, we present our picks for every enthusiast on your list. The majority of items are available online — because shopping is always better with a buzz.
Happy high holidays!
