Whenever I go on vacation - instead of a t-shirt or magnet or keychain - I like to bring something nice back that I will actually use in my daily life. I don't have any specific needs, but am interested in any ideas of what to bring back from Amsterdam/Brussels/Frankfurt.

For some context, these are other items I've brought back from different trips. I use them regularly, and they bring me a bit of joy as I reminisce about the trip when I wear them or use them.

-Aran sweater and tweed cap from Galway
-guayabera from Santo Domingo
-hakama pants and a wallet from Tokyo
-Drake's ties from London
-straw hat from Meyer the Hatter in New Orleans
-Tecova's boots and belt from Austin
-fisherman's cap from Seattle
-twill shirts from Proper Cloth in New York City
-Shaggy Dog cuffed hat from J.Press in New Haven
-OCBD and vintage pocket square from Bobby from Boston

Any specific stores to recommend in these three cities, or ideas for items to target that signify the local cultures? I'm not buying a suit or formalwear. But anything from a tie clip to a blazer is in play.

Thanks.
