Valentine's Day: Gifts for Your Guy
I am so excited to share this Valentine's Day gift-guide crossover I did with The Idle Man! Make sure to check out my guide for what to buy the ladies over on their site!
With Valentine’s day now just around the corner, it’s time you got thinking about what you’re going to buy that special guy in your life. Whether you’ve been with him for five days, five years or you’re his secret his admirer, you want to get something to impress him and show him just how much you adore him, even if he did forget your anniversary last year.
So, to give you a helping hand, Luke McCarthy, editor of The Idle Man, has given a run-down of ten gifts any guy would love at various price points. No matter your guy’s into, there’s something for him in here.
Let’s start with the practical shall we, and something he should be using on Valentine’s night: the wallet. Mi Pac offer a clean design, easily matched with any outfit, and with all the compartments you need – card, cash and coins.
A classic bit of eyewear at a more than reasonable price, these Wayfarers will match with his office tailoring and weekend denim with ease.
Every guy should have a good time piece, in our opinion, and this classic looking design will finish off any outfit effortlessly. A retro feel with a seriously affordable price tag.
If you’ve had enough of your guy holding onto too much facial fuzz, you need to get him this from Men’s Society. This beard removal kit comes with everything he needs for a pain-free shave.
Make sure your man’s looking fresh for your dinner date, starting with his hair. Uppercut offer the complete kit to make sure he’s not letting you down with a bed-head.
Now, if you let him strike lucky, you don’t want him ruining the moment with a pair of hole-filled underpants. Set him right with a colourful set of boxer shorts.
If you’re planning some time away with your man, you need to make sure he’s travelling prepared. Get him a neat little wash bag to keep his tooth brush, paste and other essentials.
No one likes cuddling up to bad body odour. Get his scent right with a decent bit of aftershave. Think of this one as a present to yourself, marking your territory.
If you really love him, you might want to treat him to something he can use on his travels, way to work or in lectures. Herschel offer practicality and style so he won’t fail with this by his side.
Finally, if you’ve decided he’s a keeper, and you really want to treat him, why not go for a more expensive timepiece. This particular design is a little more contemporary but will go great with a casual outfit.
