When it comes to buying for the holidays, sometimes it can feel a little more challenging to find cool guys’ gifts than gifts for girls. Don’t worry! We are here to help with a list of our top dude gifts to make all the guys in your life happy this holiday season!
1. If your guy just can’t help himself when it comes to using Dumb and Dumber quotes in everyday life situations, then this is the mug for him.
2. Shutterbugs unite! These Instax mini cameras are so much fun and instant gratification for photography lovers.
3. This Nintendo NES Classic Edition is a mini version of the game that just about all dudes played growing up. Not only does it come with 30 games, they are all already in the console. So there are no cartridges to blow into when the games fail to load like in the old days. It keeps selling out within moments of each release wave, so it’s definitely the dude “tickle-me-Elmo” of this season…
4. This is the ultimate book for any Wes Anderson lover that includes interviews, ideas and storyboards, and behind-the-scenes photos that are beautiful and fascinating to look through again and again.
5. This is the ultimate in record players that sports a lucite turntable. So cool.
6. Say what you may, but dudes love themselves a soft scarf. It’s also a good gift for a guy you don’t know that well if you are stuck on what to buy.
7. Nothing ruins a sharp looking suit as quickly as when it’s worn with a pair of giant winter mittens. Get a snug pair of leather gloves for the guys in your life, and they’ll look fly all winter long.
8. And hey, just because you look profesh on the outside doesn’t mean you can’t wear some Bart Simpson socks underneath to keep a sense of humor. Gift these this holiday season and they won’t have a cow, man…
9. Dudes agree—the best Christmas sweater ever!!
10. For both the guy that loves to cook and the guy that doesn’t, these grilled cheese recipes will convince anyone they are worth picking up a skillet for!
11. For the music lover that is also concerned about aesthetics, this wireless speaker will compliment any home decor.
12. Keep his beard in tip-top shape with this legit looking beard tonic kit (it’s all natural and vegan too!).
13. The jean + sherpa jacket has been worn by cool guys for decades, so you know it’s dude tested and approved.
14. It may look like a kid’s toy, but this board game is actually a 4-person tic-tac-toe game on steroids. Because each spot has three layers to it, there are a ton of ways each person can win, and the strategic fun is addicting to say the least!
15. If your guy is a tool/gadget lover, then he probably has to have at least one multi-tool nearby at all times “in case something comes up,” and this little crab is a pretty adorable one to have lying around the house.
16. For the GOT lover in your family, this themed Monopoly will incite hours of show-quoting fun!
17. Dudes addicted to their phones will love a case that has a kickstand built in for hands-free viewing of all the sports events (or, let’s be honest, YouTube kitten videos!) that their battery life can handle.
So there you have it! If you need a last minute gift for a guy in your life, we hope this list has something they would love!

NES Classic Edition…good idea if he doesn’t mind waiting. That thing has been sold out everywhere ever since it came out! 🙁
I’d love to give the #2 to myself, tbh 😉
That grilled cheese book is AMAZING. Someone gave it to me for my birthday this past year and the hubby and I both love it!
YES!!! That Wes Anderson book is a perfect gift for the hubby! Thanks for this gift guide, so brilliant.

You just saved my christmas shopping. My husband is the *worst* to buy for. But he used to have a great sherpa jacket when we first met–now I can get him a new one!
This is helpful! Guys are so hard to shop for!

I appreciate this guide, but I’m wondering about labeling the ideas for “girls” and “guys”. I would suggest that many of the gifts could be considered gender neutral.
Yep! Certain parts of the world are still releasing it in waves before Christmas though, so you may get lucky!

Nope, not bad at all!

Ooh, I’ve seen the grilled cheese book before. Sadly if I buy it for my boyfriend, he’d probably demand that I make the recipes for him, haha!
