Boy teen gifts for holidays

Anyone? Doesn't need clothes, sports equipment, games, or the usual gifts from years past. Has a relatively nice newish bike and will be driving soon. Please help!

Our 16 year old is getting:
Wireless phone charger (dont know how, but he always breaks the chargers at the port)
New ear buds (multiples, from 5 below - no point in getting him the good ones, he loses them or runs them through laundry. All the time)
New sports bag
Books
MoCoSnow sweatshirt (didn't realize how much this was a thing until last weeks' snow storm)
Tickets for he and some friends to attend Washington Capitals game

What is the MoCoSnow sweatshirt? I’m intrigued!

Mo Co Snow was started by an mcps teacher. He rates days as pencils, as far as if he thinks there will be a delayed opening or school day off tomorrow based on weather. There's a whole chart, and I can't remember if 5 pencils means you're staying home tomorrow or one, but there's ratings from 1-5 pencils. The kids all follow this guy on Twitter online Etc. He now offers sweatshirts and t-shirts for purchase. I purchased a hoodie for each kid, one for the our boy and one for our girl.

Can you still get the Mo Co Snow apparel? The only thing I see now is Sno Szon (I think that’s it) and I don’t like that as much.

Grandma asks for gift ideas for my 16YO son. All I can tell her is cash or gift card to Dick's. He likes autographed sports memorabilia like a Scherzer baseball. Maybe a Nats hoodie but he's very picky about brands, so I'd have to supply a link to the exact one he wants.

Last year, I filled his stocking with hygiene products like body wash, breath mints, etc.

Wow! These are all great ideas. DS is getting an iPhone so I was looking for an inexpensive gift idea or two so he has more than one present to unwrap. Thanks PPs!
