Not sure on this one, depends on the friendship. Sometimes you it can be just as important to be able to accept a gift in good faith as it can be to refuse it. If the motivation of this gift is based in good friendship and wanting to support you on this hike (maybe your friend is genially happy for you) then accept the gift in the spirit in which is it offered.

Tell him you appreciate the offer but would prefer he just buy a pair for himself and join you on the hike.
I expressly forbid the use of any of my posts anywhere outside of FG (with the exception of the incredibly witty 'get a room already' )posted recently.

If your friend was female and made the same offer, would you accept?
