Practical Stocking Stuffers for People Who Work

The best stocking stuffer is something that actually gets used. A bar of beef tallow soap fits in any stocking, costs $8, and gets used every day until it's gone. Add aluminum-free deodorant or a matching set and you've covered everyone on the list for under $20 each. Made in Kingston, Ohio.

Every December, stockings fill up with gadgets and novelty junk that end up in a drawer by February. Whoever you're shopping for, whether they're on a job site, a farm, a hospital floor, or in front of a computer all day, everybody showers. Give them something good to do it with.

Kingston Oak Whiskey Bent beef tallow bar soap, a practical stocking stuffer

Under $10: A Full-Size Bar

Every Kingston Oak bar is a 5.5 oz beef tallow bar in its own box, ready for a stocking. A properly stored bar lasts one person about a month. Pick by the person:

  • Works outside, hunts, or heats with wood: Wild Pine Tar
  • Wants something clean and simple: Fresh Springs, our most popular scent
  • Likes something warmer: Whiskey Bent or The Gentleman
  • Loves fall: Blaze, autumn woods, crisp apple, and bonfire season. Limited batch.
  • Wants it to feel like Christmas: The Mean One, our holiday bar, lands in early November.

Under $20

Field Issue Deodorant: $12

Aluminum-free deodorant built for odor control through a long day, in Fresh Springs, Wild Pine Tar, and Marooned. It's a deodorant, not an antiperspirant, so it handles odor, not sweat. Here's the difference.

Daily Grind Set: $19

A bar of soap and a matching Field Issue deodorant. The easiest under-$20 gift we make.

Laundry Soap: $16

For whoever does the wash. A 40 oz pouch of powder laundry soap that handles about 40 to 50 loads, including greasy work clothes.

Filling More Than One Stocking

  • The Field Box, $36: five bars, you pick the scents. Split them across five stockings.
  • Signature Blend, $29: four of our best-selling bars.
  • The Full Fresh, $33: bar soap, deodorant, and laundry soap in Fresh Springs.

Orders over $50 ship free, so knocking out the whole family at once is the way to go.
