It’s that time of the year when we need to find new inspiration for our boyfriend’s Christmas gifts. No matter how much you know someone, or how long you have been with them, it can still feel nearly impossible to find the perfect gift for them. It might feel easier to agree to not do gifts, but how sad would that be opening nothing on Christmas Day. Plus the unwritten rule is that even if you agree to not give gifts, you get each other a small gift anyway.
Just to ease the process we have compiled the gifts we have found the most success with throughout the last few years, including some of the new trends we know will be popular. The important things to keep in mind are knowing what kind of person your partner is, and what he would care for. The best type of gifts to give are the gifts that your boyfriend has wanted, but wouldn’t buy for himself. It might seem easier to just ask him what he would like, but it is much more exciting receiving a surprise that they hadn’t considered buying themselves.
Engraved Wallets
Nothing says I love you like an engraved wallet. Especially when it is a real luxury wallet with a beautiful message inside. If you aren’t into the sappy stuff a simple engravement of his initials will look good as well. Think about how long he has had his current wallet, it probably has been through years of wear and tear and yet he would refuse to invest in a new one. This is where a loving girlfriend comes in handy to buy a deserving boyfriend a new and improved wallet!
Luxury Clothes
Before you splash the cash on expensive gifts, it is important to consider what type of person your boyfriend is. If he values luxury and designer items but does not tend to buy them for himself, you might want to treat him to a men’s designer t-shirt for Christmas. Since it is a special occasion, it would be worth spending that little extra bit of cash on a quality clothing item that will be worn on multiple occasions, and a great t-shirt is one of those things a man simply can’t refuse.
Fragrance
Just imagine how much aftershave your boyfriend wastes in a year. It is a ridiculous amount, and it always seems to be that one brand he goes for. If your boyfriend has been using the same aftershave since his teen years, it is time to introduce him to some new, sultry scents. If your boyfriend has a particular taste, it might be worth getting some testers for him to smell to see which one he likes the most. If he is quite laid back, simply find the men’s aftershave that attracts you the most. He is your boyfriend, after all, smelling good to you is more important than anyone else!
Coffee Machine
If your partner sees himself as a coffee connoisseur, it might be time to take his skills to the next level. If you do not yet have a coffee machine, it would be a great gift to consider for Christmas if you are looking to spend a little bit more money this year. There are a multitude of budget coffee machines, but if you are looking to invest for the long run then we would always recommend spending that extra bit of money for reliability.
Massage Gun
What better way to save hours of giving your boyfriend a massage, than to buy him his very own massage gun? If he is well into his fitness, an important aspect of muscle recovery is massaging your muscles. A massage gun would be such a useful Christmas gift for your loved one if he enjoys being athletic in any way. This gift will get your major girlfriend points.
Air Fryer
Some might call it an unconventional gift, however air fryers and their popularity are on the rise. Cooking aficionados looking for healthier and more varied cooking options are all investing in an air fryer. It is also one of those items that you would hope to be passed down to you from your parents clear out. Why not treat your boyfriend to a 3 layered air fryer for Christmas? Think of it this way, you will have a happy boyfriend as well as beautifully cooked meals for the both of you. It’s a win-win gift.
