For the Athlete: Fuel Their Workout

The last thing any athlete wants when working out is to get distracted or weighed down by clunky gear. Fortunately, the JBL Sense Lite changes everything.

These sports headphones boast a secure, comfortable fit and lightweight design, ensuring they stay snug without falling out during even the most intense workouts. Plus, JBL OpenSound via air conduction allows athletes to hear their favourite tunes while remaining aware of their surroundings for safety. It's the perfect gift to help them push for those PBs in the year ahead.

For the Outdoor Enthusiast: A Soundtrack for the Wild

If durability is high on their wishlist, then the JBL Flip 7 portable speaker will make for the perfect present this Christmas. This speaker is built for the rugged New Zealand environment, boasting an IP68 waterproof and dustproof rating, making it perfect for muddy trails, sandy beaches, or camp tunes in the rain.

Its portability is unmatched, too. The handy PushLock system and included carabiner mean it can be easily clipped onto a rucksack or bike handle, ensuring their soundtrack travels just as far as they do. This is the ultimate gift idea for the adventurer in your life.
