As you know, this is Ben and I’s first holiday season as a married couple, which makes this time of year extra special. Despite all of the craziness that comes with this time of year, I’ve been putting a lot of thought into gifts for Ben. I want to get him something he’ll really like but at the same time, he’ll actually use! He can be hard to buy for, so I’ve been taking mental notes over the last few months to get him things that are well thought through. Is your guy also hard to buy for? Keep reading for my gift guide for him AND for a fun giveaway!

G-Shock Watch

Ben has been wanting a nice watch, but with his job he also needs one that is durable! The G-Shock Adrenalin Red Series GA700AR-1A from Casio is perfect for him. The watch features include shock resistance, 200M water resistance, Super LED Light, World Time, Daily Alarms, Countdown Timer and Stopwatch… What more could a guy want? The timepiece has a durable resin band that he needs while still remaining chic and stylish. It’s black with a bold, metallic red dial which is a complementary accessory for any outfit. The style and functionality combine in a tough timepiece that is built to last. From work days to date nights, this piece is perfect! 

Engraved Bamboo Wine Tool Set & Personalized Wine Bottle from GiftTree

Our bar cart is one of our favorite features in our home! We love entertaining guests and even making drinks on our nights in together. Our set up would not be complete without a sturdy set of wine tools, and this engraved set from GiftTree is amazing. Stainless-steel corkscrew and stopper with bamboo accents, presented in a bamboo box, making it the perfect gift! It can even be engraved with your chosen initials, which are all included!

I also love the idea of a personalized wine bottle, as well! Especially with the significance of the past year, this would be a great memento to commemorate our recent marriage! A Lush California red blend with aromas of black cherry and vanilla, sandblasted with your choice of five different popular themes along with your personalized message! An elegant gift box and complimentary card complete the presentation, making it a great business gift as well.

Zenni Eyewear

As many of you know, I also run Being Agency - a marketing agency for bloggers! Along with Ben going to school online full time for Business Administration, he also works for Being Agency in the evenings! Between his classes and work, he’s in front of a screen for several hours a day. What better gift then a pair of blue light glasses?! Zenni Eyewear makes the cutest frames, with spring hinges and adjustable nose pads to provide a comfortable fit! Any pair of Zenni frames can also be made with your specific prescription or with tinted lenses to be worn as sunglasses!

Blister Blocker SPORT & Deodorizer from Solemates

Now that colder weather is among us, Ben and I have been getting creative with how we get our workouts in! Going hiking, runnings trails, or even hitting the gym together has made exercise a lot more fun, not to mention it’s been great having an accountability partner! The Blister Blocker SPORT has been a lifesaver, preventing blisters from long or intense use of hiking boots, running shoes, and more! By applying a thin layer to whatever area feels raw, you can protect your skin from friction blisters and remain comfortable and confident to perform at your highest level! Their Natural Formulation (Made in a solar powered factory in Southern California) is long lasting and scent free!

Solemates deodorizer is also our go-to! It dries really fast and is great at removing gross odors in shoes! It’s made with natural ingredients and without harsh chemicals, leaving feet feeling cool & refreshed. This is especially good for shoes worn without socks!

HOW THINGS WORK: The Inner Life of Everyday Machines

Ben has such a love for cars and loves working on them in our garage, looking at all of the mechanics behind them. He’s so intrigued by the machinery of everyday things and the science that makes them work. HOW THINGS WORK: The Inner Life of Everyday Machines is the perfect gift book for any maker in your life! Gray's completist approach brings not only the machines we see everyday to life but explores the evolution of how we work with them! It also includes gorgeous photos by Theo’s collaborator, Nick Mann, featuring expert detailed photos of transparent models that really increase the wow factor while demystifying how things work! 

Samuel Hubbard shoes

Boots are a staple in Ben’s wardrobe, but these are anything but standard issue. With hand antiqued leather, out-of-the-box comfort and springy Vibram lug soles, these will bring the WOW to your man’s wardrobe! They even have a side zipper to save time! The full glove-leather lining delivers buttery soft feel and eliminates pressure points while the custom Vibram® soles provide all day support! These boots from Samuel Hubbard are not only a great look for any occasion but are also built to sustain comfort throughout the day!

I’m the first to admit that shopping for men can be really hard! Finding a gift that they love yet can provide value and functionality seems near impossible sometimes. I hope this list has helped inspire you in finding the perfect gift for any man in your life! What’s you go to gift for guys?
