What do you get a guy that seems to have everything? Especially when that guy keeps up with the latest trends and fashions. Chances are traditional items like ugly Christmas sweaters, sweat socks, or “dad ties” will end up in the back of their closets or regifted. Although it’s the thought that counts, you want to purchase something that they’ll appreciate. Believe it or not, there are a lot of practical ideas to consider. Continue reading to learn more. 

Watches

Despite the heavy use of smartphones, most men still wear watches with their outfits. Whether they’re heading to the office,  gym, or on a date, a watch adds a level of sophistication they welcome. When shopping for watches, ensure that you keep their lifestyle and personal taste in mind. For instance, if your uncle works as a police officer, you might stick to a sporty or casual watch style for everyday wear. However, if he works in a corporate building, going with a luxury watch would be ideal. 

Belts

Unless you’re shopping for a guy that prefers sweats and other elastic-waist pants, you can’t go wrong with buying a belt. There are men’s designer belts for more upscale or professional settings and durability utility belts for everyday wear. You can stick to primary colors like black, brown, and navy or select pop colors to enhance an outfit. 

Fashion Socks For Men

Go beyond the traditional white sweat sock and purchase fashion socks for men. They come in various sizes, materials, colors, and patterns to add personality to any outfit. You can select stripes, plaid, shapes, zig-zags, swirls, or just about any combination of designs and colors you can think of. If the dapper gentlemen in your life have a favorite character like Batman or Captain America, there are even socks they can appreciate. 

Novelty T-Shirts

If you want to purchase clothes for the man in your life, you can’t go wrong with novelty t-shirts. They’re a lot less style-specific than sweaters and pants but are fantastic to have in your wardrobe. He can throw on a novelty t-shirt with a pair of khakis and a cardigan, some distressed jeans, and a blazer, or just wear them around the house. Try to find phrases or characters that they relate to make the gift more meaningful.

Spa Certificates

Women aren’t the only ones that enjoy a day at the spa. Guys also get tense and stressed out and need a healthy outlet to put their minds and bodies at ease. If you want to surprise the dapper gentleman in your life this holiday, purchase a certificate from a nearby spa. They’ll appreciate a day of pampering, especially if they’re into health, wellness, and self-care. A nice massage, trip to the sauna, or facial can leave them feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. 

Cookware

Another gift item you may not have expected to see on the list of options for dapper gentlemen is cookware. Whether they’re chefs in the kitchen or can’t boil water to save their lives, the right gadget can make it easier for them to prepare delicious meals with ease. A crockpot, air fryer, toaster oven, or rice cooker might be at the top of the list, as you can make plenty of meals with these items. 

Gift Cards

If all else fails and you can’t seem to find anything for the dapper gentlemen in your life, you could always spring for a gift card. Getting them a card to purchase items at their favorite stores is more meaningful than you realize. That way, they can choose what they want when they want without the guilt of discarding, exchanging, or regifting your present. 

There’s no need to stress when shopping for gifts for the men in your life this year. If you want to steer clear of the traditional presents for men, there are plenty of practical options to consider. Buying any of the items from the list above is sure to be appreciated.
