Looking for the perfect holiday gift for the product manager or UX designer in your life? Look no further. We’ve got you covered. Whether it’s a small token of appreciation or a major splurge, there is something on our list sure to satisfy discerning tastes.

We did a Product by Design podcast episode on this topic as well, which you can listen to here.

Product Managers

So you’re shopping for a product manager, eh? That can could be a difficult or a straightforward task. Product managers love trying new things, experimenting with technology, and having the latest gadgets. Which means they will probably love most gifts you get them. It also means that they may already have many things you think of. But fear not, because we’re here to help.

Less Expensive

Estimation Dice — To start things off, we’ve got a funny gift that any product manager will surely appreciate. And it will elicit laughs from their entire team as well: estimation dice. Every team is well acquainted with having to give estimates of how long a feature will take to release, and managers typically don’t like to hear about the nuances that go into product development like “customer needs” and “unforeseeable issues”. So make it easy on everyone and just let them roll the dice.

Price: $12
