The Ultimate Holiday Gift Guide
The holidays are fast approaching and it's never too early to start shopping
It seems like only yesterday we were celebrating Halloween… but December is here. The holidays are going to be here in no time. If you haven’t started shopping you’re already behind the 8-ball. But never fear, Inked is here to help you out. There’s something for everybody in our Ultimate Holiday Gift Guide. And don’t forget to also check out the best items available from Inked Music and the Inked Shop here.
Time Flies
Sure, there are clocks on every single one of our devices, but that doesn’t diminish the value of a quality wristwatch. The limited edition MTM Special Ops Black Cobra 47 watch provides a sophisticated feel perfect for everyday use. With superior strength and durability, thanks to the high-grade titanium case, there isn’t a single environment known to man that the Black Cobra 47 isn’t perfect for.
Protect Ya Head
Nothing enhances a liberating ride across the open highways like a quality, lightweight helmet with a lustrous exterior. The SRT-Modular from Bell Helmets dons the features of the SRT — a fiberglass shell, recessed EPS speaker pockets, and class 1 optics in a Panovision shield, while adding the functionality of a modular helmet, for the times when you want to take in the world with an open face. It’s the case that sleek, badass aesthetic and convenient protection can go hand-in-hand.
Shining Star
Ryan Sheckler and etnies have collaborated once again to come up with the stunning Estrella. Versatility is the name of the game here as this durable skate shoe is perfect for working out, grinding rails and hitting the bars with your friends.
To Numb or Not to Numb
No matter how you slice it, tattoos hurt. But you can make the process far less painful and more manageable thanks to Mad Rabbit’s Relieve numbing cream. You don’t need to prove to your tattooer that you’re a big toughie, just numb the pain away with Mad Rabbit.
Hail to the Chief
Classics never go out of style. The Chief Bobber from Indian Motorcycle takes the old -school bobber design riders have loved for years and brings it into the modern age. A low solo seat gives you a commanding feel. Every Chief Bobber comes fully loaded with ABS, keyless ignition, cruise control and Pirelli Night Dragon tires.
Let’s Shred!
Snowboarding season is upon us! We’ve been waiting all summer to get back to the mountain to shred and nobody wants to be out there with last year’s boots. ThirtyTwo and Santa Cruz have combined forces to bring you the Lashed. With a Performance Rubber Outsole and Evolution Foam Cushioning, the Lashed doesn’t just look great, it gives you a reliable fit perfect for shredding all winter long.
Scorch Your Soul
As we said earlier when talking about Mad Rabbit, tattoos hurt! And so can hot sauce. But we keep coming back for both of them. The Nashville Hot from Tattoo Hot Sauce is astounding on just about anything from chicken to seafood to dumplings. With a very flavorful mild-medium spice level, everybody will love it.
It Won’t Always Be Winter
We know it feels like winter will never end, but we promise it will, and you need to have the clothes ready for when it does. Demi Loon’s Sookie sexy halter top will be sure to please that special someone on your X-mas list. Sweetheart neckline to accent your curves. Two ways to tie: wear it criss-cross in the front or around the neck like a traditional halter!
The Derm Dude Gets Real
Drew Plotkin, aka the Derm Dude, bares it all, one tattoo at a time, in his memoir. Plotkin has been a rule breaker since the day he was born, and now you get to hear about his unprecedented journeyfrom New Jersey to Hollywood with stops everywhere in between.
Embrace the Darkness
Skeleton HD’s Dark Force bracelet is inspired by covert operations. These premium skulls will be a seamless integration to your outfits or next to a watch. Pick up yours now!
Cozy & Sexy
The women’s Ivan Crop Hoodie from HEADRUSH is the perfect compromise between cozy and sexy. It’ll keep you warm in the winter, but it still lets you show a little skin (and ink!).

Hooked on Ink
Tattoo enthusiasts often claim addiction, but true addiction involves chemical and psychological dependence. Obsessive love for tattoos is not the same as addiction.
