Valentine’s Day Gifts for the Athlete You Love

Finding the perfect Valentine’s Day gift can be pretty stressful. Thankfully, our team at Source For Sports has some stellar gift ideas so you can stop worrying and focus on what really matters: your sweetheart. We’ve compiled a list of traditional Valentine’s gifts with their Source For Sports equivalents to make your athletic significant other’s heart beat a little faster.

💐Flowers = 🏒A New Hockey Stick

Flowers. A V-Day classic. But when your boo is at the rink most days, there’s not much time to appreciate a vase of flowers at home. So why not a different type of twig? Roses are red, violets are blue, but we prefer sticks from Bauer, CCM, Warrior, and TRUE. Today’s technology means lighter, more responsive sticks that make puck handling a dream. And unlike a bouquet, hockey sticks last longer, and even come with a 30 day warranty. Check out our stick bouquet.

And if you really want to be the Prince Charming to your Cinderella, give your partner the gift of the perfect fit with our Pro-Formance Advantage Custom Fitting System and a pair of new skates! Skates are a classic for any hockey player, and a gift that’s sure to help you score a kiss. Take a look at our Source Exclusive Hockey Skates.

🍬Candy & Chocolate = 😬A Mouthguard 

Buying gifts for the girl or guy with a sweet tooth can be easy, but instead of sweets that are bad for your partner’s teeth, why not something that will keep them safe in those chippy games? Studies show that people prefer a romantic partner that hasn’t had their teeth knocked out while playing sports. Don’t kid yourselves – we don’t all have Ovi’s paycheck to make that toothless grin attractive. A mouthguard will help prevent injuries to the teeth and mouth, and is a great way to say “I care”. See our selection of smile savers.

🎞️Movie Night = 🏋️SKLZ Training Gear

Couples that train together, stay together. Commit to fit together with new training gear for home workouts. There’s plenty of time for a movie night after you’ve both done your squats. DISCLAIMER: Source For Sports cannot be held responsible for any silent treatments given as a result of receiving a gift containing workout equipment. Check out our SKLZ Training Equipment.

👙Lingerie = 🩲SAXX Underwear

Sometimes, a practical gift is the way to go. Although only available for men, the supremely comfortable design and fit of SAXX underwear make them a win for everyone involved. They’ve been described by many as ‘life-changing’. Not to mention their wide selection of fun prints and patterns for some added flare. Browse through our SAXX selection.
