    It’s that time of year again—when you’re hunting for the perfect gift for that significant developer in your life, the colleague you drew in the office gift exchange, or maybe (just maybe) even for yourself. Whether it’s a showstopper gift you’re after, or something to slip into a stocking, we’ve got you covered with our holiday gifting guide—including new markdowns on popular items for the season!

    The ultimate ugly sweater: the developer’s edition

    Ugly sweaters are better than ugly code. And when it’s this ugly sweater? Even better! Be the most holiday-spirited developer at any virtual or in-person Git-together with this 100% recycled, soft woven sweater. Whether you’re at your work party or explaining to your relatives what exactly “Git” is around the dinner table, this sweater will spark a few conversations.

    Shine bright in the night

    Bring this glow into your flow! Whether you’re ringing in the New Year or coding late into the night, the glow-in-the-dark Copilot Hoodie and t-shirt are here to help you shine. Pair it with these Copilot Socks and take your style to the next level.

    And, if it’s time to refresh your sock collection, we have plenty of other options to choose from in fresh new colors and designs.

    Stay hydrated (or caffeinated)

    Tempted by the Stanley cup trend, but want something that makes more of a statement in your collection? Introducing our Invertocat Stanley Tumbler in two tones, creme and green. Show off your developer cred while keeping your favorite bev at just the right temperature. Great for staying hydrated while traveling or just something stylish to sip from during your next code deployment. Coffee? Water? Eggnog? We’ll leave that decision up to you.

    Recreate the diner vibe at home

    Home for the holidays but craving the coziness of a roadside diner this season? This new “Ship it” Diner Mug brings that nostalgic feel right to your home or office. Sit back, refuel, and reminisce about all those projects you shipped this year.

    For the game lovers

    Sometimes, the best way to solve a coding problem is to step away from the screen for a while. Whether you’re taking a break from coding or looking for a fun game to enjoy with friends or family, these cards make the perfect stocking stuffer or office gift.

    Customize your keyboard

    Rise and grind
