Christmas gift ideas for him…
If you’re anything like me, then you really struggle when it comes to gifts for the men in your life! The men in my life mostly love expensive tools and spend all year adding to their tool collection – so when it comes to Christmas gifts I’m left with buying the necessities like clothes and socks, and it gets very same-y year after year. I’ve collaborated with some brands to pull together lots of fresh gift ideas for the males, so here are some great picks that I wanted to share…
Personal Gifts
A more personal gift is always appreciated, something like a toiletry product or something comfy to wear. The Wahl Aqua Blade Wet/Dry Stubble & Beard Trimmer is a high quality trimmer with a lifetime blade guarantee. It’s suitable for beard trim, long beard, shave, short beard and stubble so it’s suited to almost anyone. My partner loves this and says it’s ten times better than his old one so it’s well worth the price tag. While we’re on the topic of beard care, consider looking into the best beard butter for men to give him an option to style his beard (and stay devilishly handsome!).
For a cosy winter gift, the Fitflop’s Shove Men’s Shearling-Lined Suede Slippers are a lovely pair of slippers to receive, they are so soft and a dream to wear, keeping toes nice and toasty in this cold weather!
Max Spielmann do some lovely personalised gifts that come in as gorgeous Christmas gifts too, such as the personalised mugs and keyrings. I can’t show ours as they have images of our children on, but we picked a couple of personalised mugs and keyrings out, with a picture of our four children printed on to gift to the grandparents. They’re so lovely!
Technical Gifts
For the techy men in your life, the ExpressVPN Aircove is a good pick. It’s a security-focused home router that comes with built-in VPN protection, to protect all the devices in your home with an important layer of encryption. Some ISPs deliberately slow down your internet speed when they detect things like streaming, so by using a home VPN you can enjoy much faster speeds. They also have 24/7 live chat support and can protect an unlimited amount of devices, which is great if you have a big family like we do.
The family elements of the ExpressVPN Aircove are brilliant too, you can block adult sites, as well as blocking the whole internet at certain times. There’s also easy Wifi-sharing with a QR code. We love ours and would recommend one!
For the men that are always losing their keys (I’m looking at my partner Jake!) the Tile Pro is a great addition to add to their keyring. It’s a mini tracker with a range of up to 120m. It has a up to one year replaceable battery and it’s brilliant. Jake downloaded an app on his phone and can set a ringtone going off on his keys at any time if they’re lost. It also works the opposite way and he can press a button on the Tile Pro to find his phone. You could use it in your handbag or luggage too, it’s incredibly handy.
Foodie Gifts…
Whilst not techincally food, the Yeti Rambler is the perfect gift for any hot drink enthusiasts. I bought my dad one for Christmas as he drinks endless amounts of tea throughout the day. and the Yeti Rambler is a vacuum insulated mug that holds 14oz of liquid, meaning that it holds roughly two cups of tea and will keep it hot for hours! It’s dishwasher safe too so none of the faff with needing to hand wash it. I got the charcoal colour but it comes in lots of others too.
Moving on to the actual foodie bits, the Due Vittorie Oro Balsamic Vinegar of Modena Gift Box is a lovely pick, it comes encased in a lovely luxurious box and bottle. It’s a premium balsamic vinegar perfect paired with a cheese box or even just on it’s own as a stocking filler. It tastes delicious on my salads, and I’ll definitely be making the most of this over the festive season with a cheeseboard.
For those that love a good drink, alcoholic or not, Mixologist’s Garden has brought out a new range of freeze-dried fruit garnishes perfect to add to an alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverage. There’s lemon, lime, strawberry, raspberry, and blueberry to choose from and they actually taste delicious on their own or added to a drink.
A sweeter option is The Naked Marshmallow S’mores Kit from Prezzybox which I think is such a fab gift. The marshmallow toaster is reusable so after you’ve finished with the delicious marshmallows, chocolate and biscuits that come in the pack, you can go ahead and reuse it with your own. The vanilla bean flavoured marshmallows that come in the box are super tasty, as are the little digestive biscuits and chocolate squares. We enjoyed making the s’mores with the children and it went down a treat with everyone.
My last foodie pick is the DeliVita Pizza Pack, with packs for 8, 16 or 40 organic flour dough balls, they make a great gift for the pizza lovers in your life. DeliVita have carefully selected the best artisan ingredients so that you can make the most delicious italian pizza from home. The dough balls arrive semi-frozen and can be freezed for up to 9 months, and they’ll last up to five days if you put them in the fridge. In the pizza pack of 8, you get your dough balls, a bag of mozzarella, tin of pizza sauce, pizza nuggets (cured pork), spreading salami and two packs of salami. We made our pizzas last week and they were delicious!
Fun Gifts…
For a bit of a laugh, a board game can be a fun gift. ‘New Phone Who Dis‘ is a funny adult party game perfect for the festive season. It’s a super easy one designed to create lots of fun, you just pair text message cards together and the funniest combo wins. It’s not intended for children as it contains mature content for ages 17+, but is a great party game!
I hope these options helped if you’re still searching for the perfect gift for him.
