Next up in our holiday gift guide series: finding the perfect gift for him! Whether you’re shopping for your husband, dad, brother, or best friend, this guide is full of thoughtful ideas for every man on your list. Let’s face it, shopping for men can be a bit of a challenge, but this year we’re making it easy to find gifts he’ll actually love. These curated picks are meaningful, practical, and stylish—perfect for the man who insists he doesn’t need anything! The Holiday Gift Guide for Him 2024 edition covers all the bases. Whether he’s the classic type, the outdoor enthusiast, or the guy who already “has it all,” this guide is here to make gift-giving a little more inspired this holiday season.
01: Waxed Twill Jacket from J.Crew Factory
I love the classic look of this jacket. Not too fancy for the more rugged man, but a way to elevate his everyday looks in the colder months. And that plaid lining is the perfect added touch for a rustic feel!
This is something every guy needs to make their truck or car smell great. The new Pro version is cordless and I love the selection of scents they have available for the car diffusers. We gifted one of these to our oldest son when he went off to college and he absolutely loves it!
Because if you have a bearded gent in your life you know that it is practically another member of the family! I absolutely love this brand and their line of products for men. Not to mention, the packaging of all of their products is so well done! Even better is that this trimmer is cordless and can be used wet or dry. Exactly what he needs to keep looking less ‘lumberjack’ and more ‘I woke up like this’.
04: Fossil Brown Leather Watch
A nice watch is the perfect added accessory for even the most rugged of men. I love the way it elevates whatever my husband is wearing. This one from Fossil is beautifully made and I love that it is a simple and classic approach without losing the masculinity of it.
05: The YETI GoBox
We love the YETI brand in our home and this is a great gift idea for the man who needs a versatile cargo piece to have on the go. The interior removable tray is such a great feature and this is the type of thing that will last for years and years.
06: Philips Soundbar & Subwoofer
I’m not sure what it is about men and sound, but this is one of the best gift ideas for a fantastic price for the guy who wants to level up his home theater. We purchased this Philips soundbar last year simply to enhance the sound for our family movie nights and it is fantastic!
07: Weekend Bag from The Normal Brand
This is another one of those pieces that every man should have and needs—whether it is a quick weekend getaway together, an overnight camping trip or the perfect option for a carry-on. I love this brand and the classic approach they take in their design. This bag is something he will have for years to come.
The scent of this is amazing and even better is that it is EWG verified. This means only healthy, non-toxic ingredients used which is a top priority in our home. (Psst… Use ‘KaraLayne20’ for 20% off at checkout!)
I gifted this massage gun to the Bearded Gent three years ago and it is still the first thing he reaches for when he’s feeling an ache or pain. And it includes two different head attachments depending on the need and area of the body which is so helpful!
These scream, ‘I’m practical, but I’m also cool enough to know it.’ The 530 sneakers come in a handful of colors and bonus—they’re unisex! So, yes, you can snag a pair for yourself and live out your low-key matchy-matchy dreams. Because nothing says ‘power couple’ quite like coordinating comfort.
11: Cab Commander from Duluth Trading Co.
If the man in your life needs a little organizational help for his mobile office and workshop, this is such a great gift idea! It attaches to the passenger seat and can literally hold all of the things he needs to have ready at a moment’s notice.
This is such a stunning piece while still maintaining a rustic and masculine feel. Perfect for storing his collection of watches!
13: The Tie Bar
This is one of those accessories that every man deserves a good collection of and The Tie Bar has so many fantastic options depending on his style!
14: Meat Thermometer
We all know how important well-cooked meat is to a man, but I love the added technology with this meat thermometer. It has remote monitoring which means he can babysit the grill and not miss getting to spend time with his company!
The Bearded Gent assured me that this was a top gift pick for any man. He loves the Dewalt brand and this cordless drill is a must-have. It also comes with an impact driver… whatever that is.
