Gifts For The Guys (Husband, Brother, Dad, In-Laws)
Season’s greetings, folks!
BK here with your gift guide for the guys for the holiday season. I’ll be honest, I am not usually a professional at planning gifts to give during the holidays. However, as we all know this year has thrown us a few curveballs and many of us have had to step out of our comfort zones and reinvent ourselves. So, in an effort to maintain my lead in the “Intern of the Year” race at CaralynMirand.com, I have put together my picks of some of the very best affordable gift ideas for the men in your life this holiday season.
Let me know what you think in the comments. My job depends on it.
Pendleton Men's Shetland Crew Neck Sweater
Rhone Men's Commuter Flexknit Jogger Pants
As we embark on the colder months, what better way to add to the winter work from home wardrobe than another super comfortable hoodie.
Skagens signature slim and simple watch design works with any look. Easy pick for your dad, brother, cousin, uncle, or that Door Dash delivery driver that’s gotten you through quarantine.
Levi's Barstow Denim Snap Shirts
If there is one thing Tom Brady and I have in common, it’s that we are both married to models. Humble-brag, but there is another thing we have in common — we both wear UGG slippers.
Listen, I don’t like Tom Brady either, but these slippers are worth the investment. Go Bills.
These would be on my list yearly if I didn’t have a pair. I use these daily in the gym and to drown out Caralyn using the talk to text feature on her iPhone.
Its always worth stocking up on some good fitting V-Necks — especially after months of sweats and leisurewear.
J.Crew nails the comfortable stretch fit chino with this one. They are available in 4 different fits, skinny (narrowest), slim, straight, and athletic (relaxed). I prefer the skinny for the most modern look.
Madden NFL 22 - PS5/Xbox/PC
As a little kid, getting a new video game for Christmas was the best. As a big kid, getting a new video game for Christmas is still the best.
I can confirm this is indeed Caralyn’s favorite mug. I can also confirm it does a great job of keeping the coffee she forgets to drink and leaves on the counter warm until I eventually pour it out hours later.
New Republic Men's Chuck Suede Chelsea Boot with Crepe Outsole
What better gift to get your swole-mate this year than the gift of gainz.
I caught some heat from the boss for this idea, but hear me out. I hate buying protein powder and supplements in general. They are expensive and need to be replenished often. Nothing would put a smile on my face more Christmas morning than a fresh, gifted shipment of Whey with 50g of protein and 4g of carbs per serving.
I know what you’re thinking…bro…what flavors do I get? Stick to the classics chocolate, vanilla, or peanut butter.
Men's Bean Boots, 8" Thinsulate
Whoever says “they don’t build things like they used to,” doesn't own these duck boots. Today, the Bean Boots are still sewn in Maine by expert craftspeople whose technical skills and passion for their work are evident in every pair of boots they make. Warm, dry feet haven’t gone out of style in a hundred years, so they haven’t needed to change L.L.’s innovative design.
Is there a better holiday tradition than throwing out your old socks and replacing them with the new ones you got for Christmas? I think not.
Levi's Men's Sherpa Trucker Jacket
I usually keep at least half a dozen hot sauces in my arsenal at any given time. Do I need a black truffle infused hot sauce? Maybe. If black truffle isn’t your thing there are plenty hot sauce gift sets to set that special guys heart (and mouth) ablaze this holiday season.
I’ll see myself out.
