If your guy has seemingly everything he needs, with graduation, Father’s Day and birthdays occurring each year, gift giving can certainly be a challenge. Here is a roundup of gift ideas for him that will help you find something he will love.
Men who listen to music love Griffin Technology’s Twenty digital audio amplifier to stream music using Bluetooth direct from his phone, computer or tablet. It is simple to connect and also comes with an optical adapter so you can use it with a variety of devices from Blu-ray players and game consoles to televisions and desktops. To set up, just connect the amplifier to your speakers and then pair up using Bluetooth.It also features a 2.1 channel sound system with 20 watts output per channel.We love the sleek look that fits perfectly into our contemporary home.
Speaking of music, there is nothing quite like listening to a crystal clear speaker that takes sound to a new level. If he hasn’t experienced Cambridge Audio’s wireless speakers, he is in for an experience he won’t soon forget. We recommend the Cambridge Audio Go, which comes with a built-in USB battery pack so he can charge electronic devices on the “go.” When the music is turned on (the unit can remember up to eight devices), this powerful speaker delivers unmatched sound quality with pumping bass. What also makes this device so special is that it can hold up to 18 hours of battery power after charging for just two hours.
For the stylish guy who loves to golf, we recommend checking out Tattoo Golf’s line of menswear, which ranges from polo shirts and hats to T-shirts and flasks. We love the Lucky 13 Men's Polo, a black light micro-mesh comfortable shirt that offers UV protection on the course with bright tattoo-inspired red logo on the chest and number “13” on the arm. Even though the shirt is black, you won’t believe how cool and light it is due to the moisture control fabric, especially on hot sunny afternoons walking the golf course.
There is nothing quite like being stuck somewhere with a phone that is about to lose its charge. To avoid situations like this, be sure to check out the NomadClip, a handy charging cable that comes in the size and shape of a carabiner. The USB cable is hidden and can offer emergency charge capabilities for his tablet or smartphone. The Nomad team has also recently come out with a few new items for the Apple Watch – the Pod for the Apple Watch, a portable charging station with a battery that will last longer than 18 hours, a Stand for Apple Watch and NomadKey for the Pebble smartwatch.
If your guy is on the go all the time, we have the perfect accessory for him. The Drifter backpack combines organization with sensibility. This sleek bag with soft shoulder pads is not your typical backpack. Instead of simply focusing on storage, the Drifter takes into consideration that we are all wired in today’s society. Not only is there separate areas for storing work papers, gym clothes and lunch with its three zippered front panel pockets, but there is also a storage section with padding for a laptop, tablet and smartphone. There are even pockets on the side for water bottles and a reflective light loop for night safety. If he takes the water-resistant backpack with him when traveling, it can easily secure to the handle of any wheeled luggage.
Every guy loves to smell great and ours is no exception. We love Baldessarini Private Affairs that offers the perfect touch of masculinity combined with a clean scent. The cologne combines the delicious scents of juniper, bergamot and nutmeg along with lavender and geranium for the perfect combination. To make it even more masculine, the cologne includes cedar, sandalwood, walnut and leather.
Nothing says soothing and comfort quite like warm feet and no one knows that better than the folks at ThermaCELL. If his feet are cold no matter what time of year it is, he will love Toasty Toes. The heated insoles, which are a precious commodity here in New England, especially with Boston’s snowiest winter on record this year, were the only way to make the weather bearable. If he works outside or simply enjoys being outside year round, these water resistant, custom fit insoles can help keep him warm for a few hours or a full work day. They have a built-in thermostat and remote control so his feet will never overheat. There are two temperature settings (Medium 100°F and High 111°F), as well as no heat.
For a gift he will love for years to come, be sure to check out Aluminyze, which takes traditional photo framing to a new level. Start by visiting the website where you can upload the perfect image for him. Choose between a silver gloss, silver matte, white gloss or white matte finish. The site tells you which to choose based on the image you are printing, i.e. landscape, action photos, portraits, black and whites, abstracts or photos with strong colors. Aluminum printing takes an ordinary photo and makes it extraordinary. There are no defects when your image arrives at your doorstep and the quality is unmatched as the image is printed edge to edge on a durable surface that he can keep forever.
