Shopping for a sailor, especially one who seems to have all the gear they need, can be challenging. But every experienced sailor knows the difference between adequate kit and elite performance wear. That's where Gill Gifts come in.


Worn by professionals and relied upon by serious amateurs globally, Gill is known for their thoughtful design, innovation, and top-notch quality. Gifting a Gill product isn't just giving someone a piece of sailing clothing; it's giving them a tangible upgrade for dinghy sailors of all ages and skill levels. 


This Christmas, skip the endless guesswork. We've done the hard work for you and selected a few of our favourite high-performance Gill gifts. Let's dive in:

An inexpensive, yet high-impact Gill gift for winter sailing.

3. gill pro long finger sailing gloves

Give the Gill gift of better control and protection. These gloves are constructed for maximum durability, shielding hands from friction and impact injuries while providing a relentless, non-slip grip on sheets and lines.
