With the holiday season upon us, it is time once more to start shopping for those who are special in our lives. Today, let us look at a number of gift ideas you can give to those who love to give back to this nation. Simply put, these gifts are designed to make the most patriotic men and women in America smile.

Sonola Watches

These watches are born and bred in Motor City. Founded by creative millennials with the specific purpose of making tangible goods in America, Sonola offers premium, distinctly American quality in its products. Apart from looking and feeling great, the watches also provide employment to local folk in the area, who are exclusively hired by the company, according to The Street.

Buck Knives

Designed for avid hunters and explorers, these classic knives have been the staple of the American outdoors since 1902. The company's Buck 110 Folding Hunter is arguably one of the most iconic knives ever made in the U.S.A., with a warm wood-surfaced handle accented with brass and nickel finishes. Though less fancy than most knives out there, users of Buck knives know that they are holding history. Plus, it's a tool that definitely gets things done.

Custom Decals and Patches

Decals and patches are really low-cost, and they make a nice, customized touch to any of your gifts. A lot of these products would even feature American-themed symbols as their design, enabling you to show your home country's insignias proudly, The Military Service Company noted.

Filson Jackets

Since 1897, Filson has been making rugged clothing for Americans who love the outdoors. Sewn in the U.S.A., each of their products carry a little bit of history with them. One of their most popular designs, the Cruiser Jacket, is full of pockets, enclosures, gussets and flaps, and it is one of those rare jackets that is able to maintain a handsome flair while retaining its utilitarian nature. Oh, and it lasts pretty much forever, too.

Stetson Hats

In a list such as this, Stetson will always take a primary spot. Becoming a very symbol of the Old West, Stetson hats have become one of the iconic images of America itself. It's a really great hat as well, offering great protection against the harsh heat of the sun or strong winds. From a company founded in 1865 and still going strong, and with a design that's stylish and practical, you can never go wrong with a Stetson.
