Solo Stove Teams with Marshawn Lynch for "Gifts That Don't Suck" Campaign

GRAPEVINE, Texas, Nov. 6, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Solo Stove, the leading outdoor lifestyle brand within Solo Brands, has launched a new campaign called "Gifts That Don't Suck" in collaboration with former NFL running back Marshawn Lynch. The initiative aims to help shoppers find meaningful gifts that will bring people together long after the holiday season.

According to a national survey by PollFish of 5,000 respondents commissioned by Solo Stove, 31% of respondents received a gift they didn't like in the past year, while 62% admitted to faking excitement when opening a present. More than 70% identified someone in their lives who gives the worst gifts, and over 72% expressed excitement about receiving a Solo Stove smokeless fire pit, pizza oven, griddle, or cooler.

Marshawn Lynch, known for his "Beast Mode" persona, is teaming up with Solo Stove to encourage shoppers to skip forgettable presents and give something that will be a hit with friends and families.

Solo Stove, headquartered in Grapevine, Texas, offers a wide variety of products designed to make gathering easier and more fun. From smokeless fire pits that bring everyone around the flames to chef-grade pizza ovens and stainless-steel griddles that turn ordinary meals into occasions, Solo Stove's products are backed by more than 230,000 five-star reviews. The company has launched 13 new products, including griddles, propane fire pits, and coolers, that extend its lineup and make fabulous holiday gifts.

Solo Stove is supporting Marshawn's commitment to giving back through a $50,000 product donation to his Fam1st Family Foundation, helping create more opportunities for kids and families to gather outdoors around the fire.

The "Gifts That Don't Suck" campaign invites everyone to explore the campaign landing page, shop Marshawn's Picks gift guide, and share their own bad-gift stories for a chance to win the "Beast Mode Dream Backyard," packed with Solo Stove favorites.
