These aren’t gifts we think the men in your life might like. These are gifts we’ve ACTUALLY given our husbands, dads, and brothers, and they’re still using them months (and even years) later.
It’s gift guide seasons, and I want to give you gifts ideas that are as helpful as possible!
So this year, my team and I are doing things a little differently. Every item on this list of gifts for men is something one of us has wrapped up and given to a guy in our life. They’re things we’ve seen them use over and over again!
- The joggers one of our husband loved so much he bought two more pairs himself
- The golf towel that goes on every round with someone’s dad
- The blanket that became the most-used gift one of our husband’s has ever received
- The memory book he sits on the couch and looks through with the kids every few months
If it’s on this list, it passed the real test: it didn’t end up in a drawer!
Golf Gifts for Men
MAGNETIC GOLF TOWEL. This has been gifted to dads and husbands alike, and it gets used every single time they golf. It snaps right onto the cart or clubs so it never ends up on the ground.
BUSHNELL WINGMAN 2 SPEAKER. The sound quality on this speaker is incredible, and it’s magnetic! It sticks right on the golf cart or near the grill for backyard cooking, and it even calls out yardages on the course.
GARMIN GOLF RANGE FINDER. For the guy who takes his golf game seriously, this gives quick, accurate distances so he can pick the right club every time.
ARCCOS AIR. It tracks his shots and stats so he can see exactly where his game is improving. Golf guys LOVE data.
HOLDERNESS & BOURNE PULLOVERS + POLOS. These are classic, well-made golf pieces that look just as good at dinner as they do on the course.
Cozy Gifts for Men
LOLA BLANKET. If he’s always stealing your blanket, get him his own. This one has been the most-used gift ever. Men are not above being cozy! It’s also a great gift for grandpas.
LULU-LOOKALIKE JOGGERS. These were such a hit that two more pairs got bought this year without any prompting. They look and feel so much more expensive than they are.
BOMBAS HALF CALF SOCKS. Socks might sound boring, but these are the socks guys get genuinely excited about. They’re soft, supportive, and hold up wash after wash.
MELIN HYDRO HAT. This has been a favorite hat for years, and I grab a new one every so often. It’s water-resistant, so it works for golf, the lake, or just running errands.
CARHARTT BEANIE. A classic that every guy will wear, from your husband to your teenager.
ABERCROMBIE NFL GEAR. This is my go-to for brothers. Abercrombie isn’t a store most guys think to shop, and they’re always blown away by how soft the sweatshirts are and how cool the team gear looks.
Wellness + Recovery Gifts for Men
THERAGUN MASSAGER. It’s perfect for sore muscles after workouts, long days, or a round of golf. Once he has one, he’ll use it constantly.
PORTABLE RED LIGHT BOX. Red light therapy is having a moment, and this portable version makes it easy to use at home or on the go.
HATCH ALARM CLOCK. It wakes you up gradually with light instead of a jarring alarm, which makes mornings so much better.
ENDORPHIN RUNNING BELT. For the runner in your life, this holds his phone, keys, and fuel without bouncing around.
NATIVE SEA SALT & CEDAR BODY WASH. This was gifted last year and has been repurchased a bunch since. It’s my favorite scent because it smells so clean.
AMERICAN CREW SUMOTECH. A flexible styling cream that gives hold without looking stiff or greasy. Great stocking stuffer!
Practical Gifts for Men
DIGITAL TIRE PRESSURE GAUGE. It sounds so simple, but guys love a good tool. This one has a backlit screen and gives accurate readings in seconds.
Sentimental Gifts for Men
MIXBOOK PHOTO BOOK. Every year I make a photo book through Mixbook full of our family photos from the past year. It’s such a heartfelt gift, and it’s become a tradition we look forward to.
COCONU BUNDLE. A fun way to spice things up in the bedroom, and it’s meant to be used all year long!
My Gift-for-Him Formula
If you want to keep it simple, here’s what I’d do:
ONE thing he’ll use every day
Think hat, joggers, or body wash.
ONE cozy gift
Think blanket or socks.
ONE gift for his hobby
Think golf gear or recovery tools.
ONE sentimental gift
Think a photo book.
That’s a well-rounded gift that feels thoughtful without overthinking it.
Final Thoughts
Men might say they don’t need anything, but the right gift will still become their favorite thing.
Start with what he already loves, whether that’s golf, a lazy Sunday on the couch, or a good workout, and build from there. Because the best gift for him is the one he’ll actually use!
