Why is shopping for men so difficult?! I am always struggling finding gifts for Rami because he likes his gifts to be “practical” *insert eye roll*, and not too expensive. Yep, those are his exact criteria’s ladies!
This year, I asked him to make a list of his most loved gifts to date — items he thinks would make great gifts for any man, so he came up with these. All items are under $150. Hopefully this list will make your life a littler easier this year : )
- Stanley Growler: As the name suggests, this thermos is huge. It’s a great everyday thermos that your man can take around with him to stay hydrated. I love that it’s insulated and makes for a stylish camping / adventure accessory too!
- Rayban Sunglasses: We love a timeless pair of polarized sunnies. These are classic and the tortoise frames are a refreshing change from the typical black ones. Rami wears his on repeat!
- Bose Speaker: This portable speaker is perfect for park days, for throwing into a backpack while taking a bike ride, hanging out by the pool or having some beers on the balcony. Just under $100 and over 45,000, 4.5 star reviews, you can’t go wrong with this!
- Whiskey Ice Ball Maker: This inexpensive ice tray will make your man’s drink look refined and impress his guests too!
- Sweater: Rami almost never buys clothes for himself so I always try to get him something on special occasions. This sweater is highly rated, affordable, has a classic design and comes in many colors! Rami has one in ‘washed olive’ that he wears often.
- Packable Puffer: Another great gift idea that is practical, classic and affordable (only $32!).
- Carry On: Rami desperately needed a carry on that was not outdated and bulky. He kept taking mine, so I got him this and I have to say, we’re both blown away by the quality vs the price point. It’s sturdy, sleek and really well made.
- Italian Whiskey Set: You’d be surprised at how beautiful and substantial this set is for the price. It looks and feels like expensive crystal. The glasses + decanter have a very nice weight to them as well. If you’re looking to spoil your man, perhaps add a nice bottle of whiskey and / or the ice tray to the gift too : )
- Weekend Bag: This duffle bag is perfect for a quick weekend trip and now that that we live in Austin, Rami uses his all the time.
- Wireless Chargers: These are a great solution for ugly wires. They look sleek on the nightstand and since they come in a pack of two, you can use one as well.
- Slippers: These were on top of Rami’s holiday wishlist. He wanted a pair of cozy winter house slippers, so I got him these. They are breathable and have a memory foam insole for maximum comfort.
