Let's Help Each Other! Gifts Ideas for Men?

Ask a Question

Hi. I'm reaching out to all of you to desperately ask for some ideas for men gifts, namely for my brother in law (husband's brother)!

He's one of those people that have everything, when he needs something he buys it straight away and is quite particular regarding certain brands for certain items. For context he's married and has a newborn baby. Likes running and cycling.

Everyone I ask says they have absolutely no ideas for him including his own brother and his own wife. Any ideas are welcomed please!

I wish a great Christmas for all of you!

It depends on how much you want to spend. You can get the ‘experience’ days that can start at quite a low price

My husband likes 1000 mile running socks, they’re not cheap but worth paying for.

Sometimes a voucher is the best you can do for someone 😂 what about something personalised for him to take on his runs/cycles? Like a nice water bottle or something? X

A gift card so he can get what he wants

For someone like this you would be much better off buying a giftcard and then he can get what he wants, he'd probably be much happier with something like this.

Depends on what your willing to spend, does he support a football team? You can't go wrong with aftershave ect...

martinlufc5637 ...The amount of Sheffield Wednesday, Northern Ireland & Portadown Shirts I have bought over the years for my partner!!!!

I usually buy him some Tech but he says he doesn't need any,usually we & our daughter give each other a list with a few different options on,this hasn't happened & I'm at a loss this year too...

Thank you for all the comments. I'm not a fan of gift cards as I really think that a gift should show the person made an effort to offer something the other would appreciate. I just bought a subscription of the magazine Runner's World and will take a look at some running socks or some running gear.

Honestly I would either give him gift cards or an Amazon voucher 🙂

If he likes cycling/ running, wristbands, sweatbands and sports towels etc. Nice aftershave/ showergel set as I'm sure he's sweaty after all that exercise.

nadinegregg70 or some detergent to do his own washing. I hate handling the wet sports gear.

Lol Pjran. I know how you feel, as I used to have to wash my ex husbands football teams dirty muddy kits. He volunteered me of course.

If he likes pizza and cycles, there are pizza cutters, which are bikes😂 they're quite cool and a bit quirky, something different...

Another option could be a food hamper, so snacks of different Christmas foods, crackers, cheese, mince pies, wine, chocolate, always a good one.

Hope this helps 🙂

Buy him a "Gin tasting for two" experience. You will enjoy this too.
