Picking out the perfect gift for your boyfriend, husband, dad, guy friend, or brother is a fruitless endeavor when you venture into shops without an idea in mind. It can even be intimidating when you’re trying to wow him with a gift he’ll truly appreciate, rather than going for a gift that he’ll like, but probably never use.
A thoughtful mind is a heavy burden to bear come birthdays and during the holiday season.
If you’re in desperate need of some gift inspiration, you’ve come to the right place. No matter what kind of man you’re shopping for, we’ve narrowed down our list of the best present ideas for the man on your list to unique options he’ll cherish for years to come.
For the outdoorsman
The outdoorsman is practical, logical, and easy to please. All he needs is some quality time with Mother Nature to feel more grounded. It’s this very simplicity that can make the outdoorsman feel impossible to shop for.
● A good book: Give him a reason to head out into the wild and escape for hours. As he immerses himself into the world of natural flora and fauna, he can dive into a world of knowledge and adventure with a good book by his side. Consider these bestselling titles:
○ A River Runs Through It by Norman Maclean
○ Into The Wild by John Krakauer
○ The Campout Cookbook by Marnie Hanel
○ Grand Adventures by Alastair Humphreys
For the movie-lover
The movie lover is pretty easy to please— a good movie, a bucket of popcorn, and a dark room are the three essential ingredients to achieving his version of nirvana. Fortunately, the movie man is one of the most straightforward types to shop for.
● AMC Stubs A-List membership: For only $19.95 a month, he’ll be able to see three movies per week for every month you gift to him. He can watch the latest blockbuster titles and indie flicks in Dolby Cinema, IMAX®, RealD® 3D, and other enthralling formats. Plus, he’ll get 10% back on food and drink purchases and free online reservations— how much better could it get!
For the foodie
He’s just one review away from being a professional Yelp reviewer, one sashimi role away from being a self-proclaimed sushi extraordinaire, and a slurp and burp away from post-meal satisfaction. The foodie on your gift list loves food more than anything else in this world, so it’s only fair to play to his passions when shopping for the perfect present.
● Electric Fondue set: Even for the foodie that loves to indulge in cheap eats, everyone loves the taste of expensive foods. And when it comes to expensive foods, fondue is a classy and fun option. Whether he’s a cheese guy or has more of a sweet tooth for chocolate, the melty goodness brought forth by an electric fondue set will bring a smile to his face.
For the style stunner
Admittedly the man of style is difficult to shop for because his tastes are so particular and picky, but that doesn’t mean you can’t find something he’ll absolutely adore. Whether you choose minimalist sunglasses for men or a versatile dad hat for any occasion, picking out universally stylish items is a good route to take.
● Metal money clip: Gifting wallets is so 2017. Step into the future of RFID-blocking metal money clips that are as sleek as they are protective. Because they’re so simple in design and useful in function, metal money clips are the ultimate go-to answer for the fashionisto on your list.
For Mr. Green Thumb
Instead of always having his nose in a good book, the man of the hour always has his hands deep in pots of soil. For the man who can’t get enough of turning seeds into trees, opt for a gift that speaks to his green thumb.
● Gardening subscription box: If the gardener on your gift list is always on the hunt for a new plant to pot, a subscription box that delivers new plants or seeds every month will give him something to look forward to every 30 days!
Finding the perfect gift for the special guy on your list means taking his most passionate interests into consideration before adding to your cart. Remember, the more thoughtful, the better! Happy shopping!
