A Quick Look at the Best Gifts for Men
Wanna skip all the rambling and cut to the chase? Fine, I get it. No hard feelings. Here's a handful of the top-selling gifts for men in 2023.
The most popular wireless headphones in the world, at the moment. This one's a no brainer.
A classic pair of sneakers that will never be beat. You could give a pair to every man in your life, none of them would have a problem.
Would you believe that this glass travel mug does triple duty as a pour-over maker, a cold brew maker, and a tea steeper? Yeah, believe it.
Some men are extremely simple. They put on a tee, a short, run their fingers through their hair to style it, and start the day out with nothing but a cardholder and a phone. Is that the kind of guy you're shopping for? A slim-wallet kind of guy to be exact? Great—he'll fall right in love with Bellroy's flip case.
Men love candles that smell like a wood fire or leather. Don't ask us why, even we aren't sure.
Making his own drinks during the holidays? Shouldn't happen. Let the professional bartenders from The West Village hotspot Via Carota do the hard work for him. Plus, it comes with two beautiful rocks glasses.
The best gifts are everyday practical, but with a high-fashion swerve. This Missoni scarf is the best example out there.
If he's into stretchy all-day comfort type of pants, these are the pants for him.
If he's into wear 'em forever 100 percent cotton jeans, these are the pants for him.
Switch it up and send him to the Sierra Nevadas for a John Muir-inspired backpacking trip. Get him a collection Muir's of stories and essays to go with it.
The best small smart projector on the market—perfect for bedroom bingeing or impromptu movie nights.
A beautiful smash-proof glass flask that won't taint his drink. It's the perfect gift because every guy will use it, but so few have it.
Men wear ties, and Hermès makes the best ties. Simple!
Nothing beats a cozy wintertime fire. Luckily for you (and him), we found the only solution for those stuck in apartments without fireplaces.
Whatever happened to his good night's sleep? Is it because he doesn't have a cooling weighted blanket that'll ease stress and fend off heat at night? Maybe!
The fine line between living like a gentlemen and a cavemen is having the cleanest bum. No ifs, ands, or but(t)s.
A bedside wireless charger plus catchall that's done in a beautiful Italian saddle leather, this might be the best gift on this list.
One of the Gifts of The Year and an Esquire Gadget Award Winner, this is the perfect gift for anyone with skin.
Because he's gotta protect his ride, and because this Garmin dash cam is so small it won't clutter up his windshield.
If he needs a new backpack, Away makes our favorite. It's sleek, durable, and optimized for airport travel.
