anytime i ask you guys for gift guide requests, probably the most common request i get is gift ideas for men! your husband, father-in-law, brother etc! i get it. guys are TOUGH to shop for! so i rounded up tons of gift ideas here for you guys for lots of different types of guys – whether you are shopping for someone athletic, the tech nerd, adventure guy or jet setter…i’ve got you covered!
everything in these gift guides are items i’ve either bought for michael that he LOVES, things michael uses daily, or gifts we’ve bought for our dads that have been a success!
gifts for him: clothing + accessories

i thought these boots looked so comfy but cool at the same time. they're perfect for cold winter days, WFH life, and can be paired with athleisure type of outfits, or jeans!

EVERY single year that i do a men's gift guide i include mizzen and main shirts. michael has at least 10 of them, we give them to our dads...and every guy i know who has one, LOVES it. so these are moisture wicking dress shirts that don't wrinkle and don't have to be dry cleaned and have the BEST fit. once your man (or your dad) wears one, he will never want to wear a different shirt!

michael's absolute favorite pant from lululemon. he has both the jogger version and the pant version and legit LIVES in them (he probably has 5+ pair haha). he's even gotten the rest of the guys in my family hooked on them. they somehow can be an athletic pant or a dress pant all at the same time. michael travels in them, wears them for date nights, and everyday life. they are comfortable, fit so well, don't wrinkle, and the quality is 10/10

i bought michael a pair of vejas probably 3 years ago and he still wears his almost daily. they are his go-to shoe for everyday outfits with jeans. they're classic and go with everything. i love that they are ~~on trend~~ but not too ~~trendy~~, so even if your guy isn't the trendy type...these are a safe bet!

michael's all time favorite crewneck tee that he has in probably 5 colors now (we buy them from the nsale every year). these tees are insanely soft and fit SO well and will also last for years! looks like a basic tee but once your man feels it + tries it on, he will be obsessed

another item that's in my gift guide every single year. we have one of these massage guns and use it almost daily. if you are shopping for someone who likes working out, this massage gun is a GAME changer! helps so much with muscle soreness and recovery or even just tense shoulders!

michael's favorite boxers for working out! he said they are moisture wicking, comfy, and great for running / any activity!

i love the minimalist style of this backpack but it's still super practical + functional with lots of compartments. this would be a great bag for gym, work, or travel!

this is a really budget-friendly gift for your man that he could add to his home gym! jump roping is such an incredible workout, and this weighted jump rope just takes it up a notch!

got this robe for michael probably 5 years ago and he STILL wears it almost every single morning - so you KNOW the quality is amazing and will last him for years to come! tbh he never asked for a robe or said he wanted one but i knew once he had it...he would LOVE the robe life haha. basically the gift he didn't even know he needed!

michael and i both love and use our ember mugs every single day. its an electric mug that keeps your coffee hot for HOURS, so you no longer have to reheat your coffee or chug it in 5 minutes. tbh once i got my ember mug, i refuse to drink coffee any other way now haha. such a great gift for any guy on your list who drinks coffee!

michael is not much of a pj guy...but LOVES his tommy john lounge / sleepwear. these are literally the softest pants EVER and amazing quality so they will last him for years! they aren't too hot to sleep in, don't get twisted, and feel like a dream. michael and i both live in our tommy john especially in the fall and winter!

don't tell him but i actually got michael this decanter for christmas! he was wanting something more unique for our wet bar and i thought this shape was really unique + classy!

okayyyy this gift is a splurge but if your guy is into video games (or is a nerd like michael lol) this VR set is SUCH a fun gift. i got it for michael for his birthday and he plays it all the time / always gets it out for parties haha so its fun for other people to try out too. if you're totally stumped on what to get your husband and he's into games at all...this has been a huge hit in our house!

okay now YOUR turn! tell me a gift you’ve bought your husband or father-in-law that was a total success! i always love adding ideas to my list!
