Canadian Gift Guide

What It Is: Pranga Co. is a cufflinks brand based here in Canada – with a quite literal twist! Their cufflinks are designed to be mixed and matched with their growing collection of ‘ankers’. Simply start by picking a cufflink of your choice ($35), with hues like trendy rose gold or timeless steel. Then, add your choice of ankers, which come in a range of materials including glass, quartz, wood, and precious stones ($30 – $35 per pair). All of the ankers are hand cut, meaning they’ve all got a slightly different appearance and one of a kind look (although Pranga does mention they aim to pair similar-looking pieces together).

What’s really cool is how adaptable the whole system is. Instead of shelling out for a new pair of cufflinks for every dress shirt, he can simply mix and match to create a custom accent to his formal wear. Plus, it makes for easy gifting – you can hook him up with a new pair for a special occasion, anniversary, or the holidays. Be sure to check out the brand’s new Oh Canada anker, specially designed for #Canada150 from real Canadian maple wood.

Who It’s For: The groom. The groomsmen. The dapper fellow in your life.

What It Costs: $35 for a pair of cufflinks, $30-$35 per pair of ankers, depending on the material. And if you buy a pair of cufflinks and any anker at the same time, you’ll save $10 instantly. You can also sign up for their Anker of the Month club to save a bit and get a new pair each month!
