Holiday Gift Guide For Men

I don’t know about you, but I always feel like it’s difficult to shop for men. Men don’t require much and when they find something that they like or want they normally buy it for themselves. This makes it particularly tough to find something to get them for Christmas. There are only so many socks and Daddy cups you can get. So we have curated a great holiday gift guide for the men in the hopes that's you'll find something. 


HyperX Cloud Buds Wireless Headphones

We will kick off this holiday gift guide for him with these HyperX Cloud Buds Wireless Headphones, he will soon discover sounds he didn't think possible. These Bluetooth® earbuds are great for listening to music, streaming, or playing some games. These are next level that go above and beyond to make sure their next workout or commute is better than ever. The lightweight flexible neckband features an in-line mic and multi-function button so you can answer calls or change tracks. I like the fact that it comes with three ear tip sizes so you can get the perfect fit for all day comfort.

Got someone wo likes hot sauce? Why not get your foodie taste test lots of different hot sauce flavours with this hot sauce subscription. Flaming Licks is definitely for the ultimate hot sauce head! With three hot sauces, chilli jams, chilli chutneys, pickles or chilli inspired marinades coming through to their letter box each month - it's the gift that keeps on giving. 

Fortnum & Mason The Grosvenor Hamper

I adore a Christmas hamper that is filled with luxury treats to see you through the festive period. This Fortnum & Mason’s The Grosvenor Hamper includes a bottle of Vinho Verde, a bottle of Dao Tinto, the Fortum & Maon Royal Blend Tea, Champagne Truffles, Piccadilly Salted Caramel Biscuits and Pistachio and Clotted Cream Biscuits. For something with a smaller budget how about this John Lewis & Partners Festive Treats Hamper that is full of everything you need to indulge in over the Christmas period and more. From a bottle of Merlot and a Christmas pudding to mince pies, a luxury chocolate set, and chutneys, this gift will be the star of the show on Christmas morning. 

Original Arran Cheese Platter

Let’s talk about CHEESE! A cheese plate appetiser is an essential dish at festive gatherings and can make a really great gift too. We like to get cheese gifts or platters for our aunts or uncles, and they are always appreciated! You can pick up some great cheese gifts just like this Original Arran Cheese Platter that include Walker's Mini Oatcakes, Tuxford & Tebbett Creamery Blue Stilton, Arran Cheese with Chilli, Arran Mature Cheese, Arran Oak Smoked Cheddar. But that's not it they have also included Bradfords Granny's Best Pickle and Tomato Chutney. Yum!

These Navy Blue Canvas Pumps from Next make a great casual look that will go perfectly with a pair of jeans and a formal shirt. It has been designed as a sporty slip on that is comfortable, fitted with a lightweight sole for a flexible ease. Perfect for wearing to the office on Fridays, on date night or guys night.

Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 37

With most of us taking up some kind of exercise plan during lockdown in the summer and autumn. So to help keep to those goals why not add something that will help them stick to their new active lifestyle. The Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 37 is the running shoe that'll keep those 5Ks coming. They are so light, responsive, bouncy and durable and come in all black. 

Drake & Hutch Red Striped Socks

Socks! They are like a Christmas staple for men, aren't they? So of course we added some funky red striped socks into the holiday gift guide for men. Drake & Hutch have some of really funky designs that certainly have a British flare. There is a whole range that include stripes, polka dots, to camouflage, hearts and even palm trees. Drake & Hutch was first established in London by a group of young designers with the aim of creating underwear that is affordable and made with the same quality and attention to detail found in a bespoke suit.


Everlane The Boxer Brief

If you're not using Christmas as an excuse to replenish the pants and socks in the life of the man closest to you, you're doing it wrong. It is time to ditch those pants that fit in all the wrong places and choose something that is practical and comfortable. These Everlane The Boxer Brief are made from Supima cotton with a tailored fit for the ultimate comfort. 

Burton Navy Half Zip Jumper with Organic Cotton

Clothing isn't always the first choice when it comes to getting gifts for my husband, he has a certain style and he is so picky! I hate shopping for him, but there is always a safe go to! A good pullover jumper is always something he likes to have in his closet. This Burton Navy Jumper is lightweight half zip jumper is an essential item for his wardrobe all year round. With a classic fit in a soft organic cotton blend rich yarn, the fit of this style makes it wearable over a smart collared shirt under a blazer or alternatively over a T-shirt for more casual days.

You can't really go wrong with a razor? It's something that they need and can never have too many of them.

With FlexBall technology, ProGlide responds to contours and gets virtually every hair. It will make a great stocking filler.

Prada Luna Rossa Black

Aftershave is always a great choice and you can cater to all types of budgets. But perhaps get him something that he hasn't tried before and after a handful of those spritz cards I decided on a little luxury with this Prada Black with dry musky Amber set off with frothy Patchouli and Coumarine, with hints of Bergamot and Angelic slowly builds and crashes with seductive, masculine energy. It smells so GOOOOOD!

Personalised Joop! Homme 125ml EDT 

We always love picking up some budget friendly ones for family and friends. So this Joop Aftershave is the perfect pick. We also had the option to get our bottles personalised for our brother in law which I always think is a nice touch. It isn't something he tends to choose, but sometimes different can be a good change. The Firetrap Noir is another budget favourite the fragrance starts with tones of Verbena, pink pepper, pepper, with middles notes of nutmeg, patchouli, and a base expresses notes of civet.

The Summerton Club is a premium spirits subscription service. You can choose from a monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly subscription where you will receive a beautifully-aged bottle of whisky, brandy or rum delivered directly to your doorstep. The perfect gift for my husband. I love that these are not ordinary bottles you will find at the supermarket, each bottle is carefully selected and that extra bit special. Some bottles aren’t even available to purchase in the UK yet and all deliveries sent out are worth more than the membership fee. The Summerton Club pride themselves in not only providing great value for money but a taste experience that any drink connoisseur will appreciate and love.
