Sometimes buying gifts for the opposite sex can be tricky. When looking for gifts to buy for the guy in your life, you may find yourself online scrolling past corny t-shirts, bowties, and gift sets he’ll probably never take the plastic off of.
This year, make it a goal to use your money for something that he’ll actually like and find a use for. Just make sure it’s a meaningful present. Giving a personalized necklace for instance, can be a thoughtful gesture and mean a lot to him.
From your dad to your gay best friend to your husband, take a look at some of the best gifts for all the guys in your life.
Shaving Kit
Part of being a man is shaving every day. Why not buy them something for them to shave with that makes the experience more comfortable, chic, and downright effective.
Buying them a shaving kit isn’t only visually appealing, but it’s actually something that they can find a use for! You can make them your own DIY basket full of carefully chosen items from cartridge razors to beard oil. Otherwise, you can buy one that’s chosen for you.
Money Clip
How many of you have a man in your life that seems to have change and bills flying everywhere when he takes his hand out of his pocket? A lot of men don’t want to bother with the bulk of a wallet in their pants, so they just stuff their change in their pockets.
A money clip makes a great gift for someone looking to organize their pockets a little while avoiding a butt bulge.
Socks
If the man in your life doesn’t upgrade his shoes until they are practically falling apart, you can bet that he hasn’t upgraded his sock collection in decades. If his collection of socks consists of only three colors—“white,” “black,” and “more black”—give him some socks with pizzazz, like a colored or patterned sock gift box from No Cold Feet. He probably wouldn’t think to get them for himself, but they will definitely get used.
A Book
A book is an excellent gift for the intellectual man in your life. Offering a book that is based around something they’re interested in shows that you value what they care about. If you’re not sure what b book to buy, you can do a search on Amazon based on interests. You’ll get a list of the bestsellers in that category.
A Subscription
A subscription is a fantastic gift that keeps on giving. The great thing is that nowadays, there is a subscription for just about anything. You can subscribe to a monthly coffee box, fishing tackle box, and even a monthly cigar box.
It all depends on what the individual interests are of who you’re buying for. Chances are, there’s a subscription out there for it!
Robot Vacuum
A robot vac is a small but mighty gadget that takes away the hassle of having to vacuum every day. It carefully maps out the dimensions of your house and vacuums every day without you having to do anything.
Ping Pong Table
Ok, this is a sneaky gift. This is the definition of the gift that keeps on giving. Why? Sure, your man MAY, on occasion, use the ping pong table with his friends. But chances are more often than not, you will be able to simply use the ping pong table as an excuse to spend more time with your boyfriend/ husband. You can buy a ping pong table on the cheap these days, so it’s definitely worth considering if you ask me.
This makes a great gift for both neat freaks and slobs. Either one can benefit from the convenience of someone else cleaner for you!
