The Ultimate Holiday Gift Guide for Every Type of Guy



Shopping for men can be hard, scratch that, impossible. Whether they're super picky or chronically indifferent, choosing the right gift can be difficult whether you just started dating or you've been together for years. Luckily, my boyfriend isn't shy about pointing out any little thing he would like to receive wrapped in shiny paper, so over the months I've been keeping track of all the things that have caught his eye.

And since my boyfriend is only one guy's opinion, I also enlisted the help of a few friends who we're happy to send me a Christmas list of items they'd be more than happy to find under the Christmas tree. Whether your brother, boyfriend or best friend enjoys movies or sporting events, you should be able to find something on this gift guide for every guy on your list.

For your convenience I have added direct links to the items (or closest match) beneath each image. I will not profit at all from you clicking or purchasing anything from those links, I was just trying to save you guys some time. Happy shopping!

    1. Yes! Why are they so difficult? Why cant they be like us and touch everything they want in the store,it would make shopping sooo much easier

  2. There's always two sides to buying my boyfriend a gift: It's super expensive, but he'll love it. Or, it's an inexpensive option, but he already has it. I've been trying to find a happy medium between finding unique gifts he doesn't have without over spending for the holidays. I love this list you created!

    1. Oh my god, you nailed it! My boyfriend keeps not so subtly hinting he wants an XBox, he can keep dreaming!! I found that my boyfriend always appreciates house stuff though, since they never buy it themselves. So things like pizza cutters and nice glasses are perfect gifts for guys who are a bit older

    1. How people get any work done at work without earbuds is beyond me!! I forgot them one day and it was the most unproductive day of my life. Definitely get him some, they're an easy and totally useful stocking stuffer
