Best Personalized Gift

Claudia Moldovan Custom Song Wall Art

Custom Song Wall Art

This art expertly walks the line between sappy and cool, taking a snippet from his favorite song (or perhaps the tune you call “our song”) and creating a wooden representation of its exact sound wave. It’ll be totally unique to him.

Best Tech Gift

Apple AirPods Max

AirPods Max

If he’s not already an AirPods Max guy, I suggest you make him one. They’re more comfortable and better looking than anything else on the market, and the sound performance is pretty great, too.

Marshall Kilburn II Portable Bluetooth Speaker

On Sale

Kilburn II Portable Bluetooth Speaker

This Marshall classic is one of the best-looking and best-sounding speakers you can buy. Should be a pretty good gift for any guy who likes music, sometimes plays music, or has friends to listen to music with.

Best Comfy Gift

CozyEarth CityScape Jogger

CityScape Jogger

Nothing says “I love you” like a pair of CozyEarth’s supersoft sweats. Yeah, you will be stealing these from him.

Best DIY Gift

DIY Gift Kits Hot Sauce Making Kit

Hot Sauce Making Kit

Is “too spicy” still not spicy enough for him? He’s going to love this DIY hot-sauce kit that’ll let him tailor the spice level to his own taste buds.

The Best Jacket You Can Buy

Flint and Tinder Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket

Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket

Even if he’s not into The Last of Us, he will very much be into this jacket that Pedro Pascal wears in the show.

Flint and Tinder’s waxed trucker is about as good a fall jacket as you’ll find. It’s a timeless look with a tough build, and it’s made in the U.S.A. The flannel lining gives it some warmth without going over the top. It’s a perfect mid-weight piece.

Best Gift for Coffee Addicts

YETI 34 oz French Press

34 oz French Press

I love a French press. It’s probably my most used form of at-home coffee making. What I don’t love is the fact that there’s usually no way to keep French-press coffee warm.

Yeti has, of course, entered the game and fixed that. I can make a press and babysit my two or three cups of coffee throughout the day without it going to room temperature. Sure, at $110 this is more expensive than most, and it looks more outdoorsy. But if he wants the best, this is it.

For the At-Home Barista

De’Longhi Dedica Espresso Machine

Dedica Espresso Machine

Alternatively, if he prefers espresso, De’Longhi’s new apartment-sized machine is one of the best.

Best Starter Soundbar

Sonos Ray Compact Soundbar

Ray Compact Soundbar

He likes movies but lives in a small apartment. Plus, you don’t have the disposable income to shell out for the big-dog Sonos Arc. This Sonos Ray is the perfect compromise. You get crisper dialogue, and deeper bass, and although it doesn’t have Dolby Atmos, the proprietary Sonos Trueplay tuning is a solid alternative.

Best Bath Gift for Your Boyfriend

Brooklinen Super-Plush Robe

Super-Plush Robe

A robe? Yes, hear me out. Men don’t wear robes anymore, and that is a crime. I’ve started wearing one around the house, and it changed my life.

You feel put together, but you’re lounging. He will be, ahem, free to feel the breeze but not an aggressive eyesore to his significant other (you) or his roommates.

Best Everyday Style Gift

Hanes Beefy T, 2-Pack

Beefy T, 2-Pack

Every man is on a search for the perfect white T-shirt. I believe the Hanes Beefy T is that shirt. And they’re so cheap you could redo his whole drawer.

Best Gift for Football Fans

NFL Playoff Tickets

NFL Playoff Tickets

Still stumped? Tickets to an NFL playoff game—or the Super Bowl, if you’re really feeling wild—will bring you together for a unique experience.

Best Gift for Golfers

Mark & Graham Personalized Golf Ball Gift Set

Personalized Golf Ball Gift Set

There’s not a better golf gift out there, if you ask me. Everytime he takes off for an afternoon—maybe a weekend—golfing with the boys, he’s reminded that you, his beloved SO, are the best gift giver on the planet.

Best Activewear Gift

Best Sneaker to Gift Him

Adidas Handball Spezial Shoes

Handball Spezial Shoes

A suede Spezial is the thinking man’s Adidas Samba. Just as classic, but a tad more elevated.

Best Travel Gift

Wildsam Publishing Wildsam City Field Guides

Wildsam City Field Guides

If he spends a good chunk of time researching the best barbecue joints, the best dive bars, and the best live-music venues in any city he sets foot in, then Wildsam’s pocket-sized guidebooks are a perfect fit. Each holds recommendations for stuff to do that’s much cooler than your average TripAdvisor fare, accompanied by stories and recs from locals.

Best Outdoor Game Gift

Outside Inside Backpack Cornhole Game

Backpack Cornhole Game

Fact: Cornhole is the Midwest’s greatest gift to America. This set is little, so he can bring it along to tailgates, barbecues, campouts, and more.
