We love the men in our lives: from grandpas, brothers, dads, significant others – they are great, however they can be super hard to shop for! Men are simple creatures, but tend to be picky when it comes to gifts.
Do not fear, I asked many men in my life for their input on holiday gifts they would actually like to receive so these are tested and trued things men would like to see under the tree.
1. Whiskey Wedge and Glass
Your man can enjoy his favorite spirits chilled, but not watered down, by filling the silicone mold with water and freezing to form a diagonal ice cube that will make everyone jealous. Just put the mold in the glass, add water, then freeze. Great for whiskey enthusiasts alike.
2. Chelsea Boot
I think the shoes that a man wears says a lot about him. I am deep in the dating world and one of the first things I look at when meeting a guy is his shoes. I love a Chelsea boot. They are classy, fashionable, and look so good.
3. Engraved Tape Measure
This one is for your dad or grandpa, or really any handyman in your life. I feel like they love personalized things, and this tape measure would make such a cute gift. I think they would really appreciate it.
4. Hatch Dispenser
Don’t hog the whole bar cart, and let your man add something to it. This hatch dispenser oozes class and would look great in any home. He will feel all fancy when he goes to make himself a drink and will love when you are hosting people and he can show it off to everyone.
5. Hopsulator Trio
Brutmate is such a cool company, and I love their products. I think the trio is the perfect gift for the man in your life. This 3-in-1 can-cooler holds 16oz, includes a freezable adapter for 12oz cans and converts into a 100% leakproof pint tumbler.
6. MLB Stadium Illustration Playing Cards
For the baseball fan in your life. I feel like a ton of men have the bucket list item to visit all MLB stadiums. Die-hard fans of America’s favorite pastime will love trading stories between hands of poker with these cards. All 30 Major League Baseball stadiums are included, so no matter his team, you can find it!
7. Pizza Stone
I love pizza date night at home. Up your pizza making game, but gifting him his own pizza stone. I promise using a pizza stone just makes homemade pizza taste better. Think of all the fun pizza parties you can host!
8. Beard Grooming Kit
The lumberjack look is in, so make sure his beard is well groomed with this grooming kit. Included is a: face wash, beard lube, beard oil, and a new comb.
9. Eyeglass Holder
This hand-carved wooden statuette is perfect for holding your glasses when you’re not using them. No more searching around blindly, or trying to remember where you last put them down. Great for any man really. My brother has one of these on his nightstand and he loves it!
10. Make Your Own Hot Sauce Kit
For the man who thrives in the kitchen. He can take a stab at making his own hot sauce, if he can handle the heat! Includes instructions, ingredients, six bottles, and labels for their creative sauce names. This would be such a fun gift I think!
11. Ramen Bowl
This is a gift that I think any guy would appreciate, especially the single guy. I don’t know what it is, but I feel like all men love ramen. Gift him his own ramen bowl for when he gets take out, or just anytime he is getting his ramen fill. I hope my brother isn’t reading this, because this is what I got him this year!
12. Scotch-Infused Toothpicks Gift Set
Such a unique gift! Savor a subtle taste of single malt scotch with these infused toothpicks. They feature a barrel-aged, Islay single malt with a distinctively smoky flavor with notes of peat and complex caramel. Release the flavor by gently biting the wood.
13. Record Player
I think this is a great gift for any music lover in your life. They can start collecting records from their favorite artists and they might dance in the kitchen with you since records give off old time vibes. Also I’m sure he won’t notice if a few of your favorite records make their way in his collection.
14. Duffle Bag
Definitely more of a practical gift, but every guy should have a nice duffle bag. This one is sleek, minimal and stylish. It comes in a bunch of colors and it looks super sturdy. Especially if your man likes to travel, or travels for work, this would be a very good gift for him.
15. Portable Campfire
Campfires are amazing—except for the stinky smoke, finicky flames, and almost impossible-to-extinguish embers. Make them even greater with this portable fire pit that does none of the above. Light it easily with just a match or lighter and bring fire’s glorious magic to the backyard, beach, or campsite for 3-5 hours.
Hopefully this guide was helpful in giving you some ideas on what to get the men in your life!
