Finding a gift for the special man in your life can often be a tough challenge. Whether you’re shopping for a partner, relative or male friend, men can often make difficult gift recipients, as they do not easily give up clues about what they may like to receive. However, there are some timeless picks that will always go down well, so read on for some tips on what to consider adding to the gift shopping list. If you’re feeling really stuck something that I always lean on is a personalised gift, like these personalised gin glasses.
A stylish piece of home technology
Technology is always evolving in leaps and bounds, and in recent years, it has taken an important place in the home. From voice-activated devices that can sync with common household items to hi-tech sound systems and more, technology is always a great gift choice. You can often find items at a variety of price points, from affordable smaller pieces such as lights or gadgets to larger pieces of equipment such as laptops or gaming systems.
An indulgent foodie treat
It’s hard to go wrong with a delicious gift, especially if you are treating someone who enjoys the tastier things in life. Whether he has a sweet tooth or prefers things to be more savory, there are all kinds of edible gifts to choose from. Try some gourmet marshmallows in a variety of surprising flavors, or a mouth-watering grilled meat collection for a more carnivorous person.
An Interesting Collectible
Toys aren’t just for kids. And there are a lot of cool toys for the big boys to love and collect. For the man in your life, you may want to consider giving him a replica of a flintlock pistol used during the Middle Ages. They’re great for display and collection, maybe even for role-playing if he’s into that kind of thing! These flintlock pistols accurately replicate actual pistols of the bygone eras. But they’re completely safe and non-firing, so there’s nothing to worry about
An elegant new fragrance
A new cologne is always a classic gift choice for men, but it’s easy to opt for a cliché product that he has seen, and probably received far too many times before. So before you pick up the usual bottle off the shelf, try something different instead, such as a personal subscription for a variety of colognes from scentmagic.com to help him sample a great variety of fragrances.
A classic timepiece
Though it may seem that mobile phones have replaced the function of watches, there is still something very stylish and refined about wearing a special watch. It can make the perfect gift for men of all ages, from young adults on the threshold of their teens to older men who have everything they need in life. Choose a classic item that can be worn with a variety of different styles and opt for quality over trends, as a well-crafted watch can really last a lifetime.
Some socks to make him laugh
While socks are often the quintessential ‘male’ gift to go for when you’ve run out of ideas, when chosen well, they can actually be a lovely addition. You might like to give a pop of color to his wardrobe if he dresses on the dull side, or brighten up his outfits with his favorite animated characters. For men with a taste for luxury, a pair of beautifully crafted socks in merino wool or soft cashmere can be a surprising and elegant gift that will add comfort and style to his life for a long time to come.
