Bridesmaid Gifts

FI and his groomsmen are all very into basketball (2 work for the Miami Heat) and sneakers. They make a point to go to the Nike store in the Keys once a year. It's their thing. With that being said, FI really wants to buy each groomsmen a pair of Jordans as the groomsmen gift. I've tried to convince him to make it Converse (easily half the price), but I think I may just let him have this.
With that being said, I feel pressured to by my girls an equal-ish gift. Meaning, the guys can't be given $175 shoes and I give the girls a tote bag. I was looking at Tiffany's and all the jewelry is just a bit out of the price range and I don't know what I would really get them anyway.
So, I was thinking about getting a Tiffany's passport holder and writing something cute like, "thanks for being with me on the biggest journey of my life, now I can be with you on your next journey." Granted, I will reword that when it's closer, but that's the idea. 
So the question is... are passport holders totally lame compared to sneakers and, if so, what else ya got??? :)

Thanks!

    Its not totally lame...I actually like the idea...

    If you want, you can also get them a handful of little things that add up.  I did towel wraps that were personalized to their two favorite colors...it was a HUGE hit...actually had some of them ask me where they can order some for friends!

    I also ordered swarovski crystal bouquet charms for each girl and they got to keep them as a keychain afterwards.

    the last thing I gave them was makeup bags with their initials on it (from the knot)  again, this was a big hit!

    hope it helps.  :)

    I'm getting my girls a handful of smaller things and putting it all in a tote bag for them. So far I've got them the necklaces for the day of and some key chains that are also picture frames.
