Hip flasks are still popular and one-of-a-kind gifts you can give to any male or female recipient who loves to drink. They allow you to carry discreetly a small amount of liquor—usually in four or 6 ounces—and they are typically small enough to fit in a coat pocket, trouser, or a purse without being seen. The easiest way to find hip flasks is to go online and look for a personalised or engraved gift specialist that carries them. This way, it can be easier to find the right hip flask to give as a gift to a colleague or a loved one. Here are some points to consider before buying a hip flask online:
The material it is made of – Hip flasks were traditionally made of pewter, glass, or silver, but modern designs incorporate newer materials like plastic and stainless steel. Stainless steel is recommended due to its sleek and luxurious finish. Some stainless steel hip flasks are finished with a leather detail for a more subdued and stylish look.
The style – Hip flasks are traditionally square or rectangular, but there are newer designs that are round or slim. Pick the style that best suits your recipient. For instance, a stylish and fashionable woman might appreciate a 6oz round pewter hip flask or an engraved slimline pocket design. A flask that is shaped like a shotgun cartridge may appeal to hunters, those who work with law enforcement, and those who love guns. A man who likes to share his liquor with friends may want a case that comes with three stainless steel flasks with dram cups.
The accessories – Some hip flasks come with a carry case and drinking cups.
Personalisation – Engraving is a perfect way to personalise a hip flask because it produces precise, clean, and lasting results. You can have the name or initials of your recipient engraved on the product, or consider adding a special message on it. To save money, make sure that the online store offers free engraving before you proceed to order a hip flask from them.
The occasion – Think of the reason why you would be giving a hip flask to someone. This way, you can consider an engraved flask with a handprint or footprint as the design. It can be a great gift to someone who is about to become a father.
