Gift Guide 2022: For the Guy in Your Life

The newest Beats earbuds means he can finally retire his AirPods (which are around $100 more expensive) once and for all. Truly noise-canceling, sweat resistant, with six hours of listening time, and super high-quality calls, these buds are the perfect match for podcasts, work calls, and workouts. 

Guys appreciate a good skincare routine, too! Get him one (or more) of Sunday Riley’s limited-edition holiday kits to elevate his daily skincare regimen. We love this one in particular, which boasts our collection of best-selling retinol products to help rehydrate and soothe skin.

Psychologists continue to affirm that experiences are more impactful and memorable than physical gifts. The perfect solution: a driving experience gift from Tinggly. He gets a package in the mail with everything he needs to find the adventure that best matches his idea of a good time, from laps around a racetrack in a Lambo, to stock car and Formula car racing, to snowmobile “safaris,” and drifting lessons. 

The GQ subscription box arrives four times per year, and is chock full of the latest editor-tested products in grooming, beauty, and lifestyle, among other items. He’ll love trying out brands he recognizes and others he may not have heard of yet, recommended by the coolest men’s fashion and gear staff on earth. Each box is guaranteed to have a retail value over $200. 

Yes, he’s golf-obsessed, but he’s not your average golf guy. These skeleton-adorned head club covers scream, “I may know my way around the greens, but I’m definitely punk rock about it.” The hand-sewn, hand-appliqued leather covers will also muffle some of the annoying jingle-jangle of clubs in motion.

Stress is an inevitable part of life, and sometimes it’s hard to get back to baseline. Enter his new favorite wind-down tool: This smart mask by the people who make Theragun massagers takes cues from your heart rate to help you get back to calm. With an app that regulates inputs like heat, vibration, and massage settings, we won’t judge if you end up borrowing it when he’s not using it. 

Let him create his own version of a perfect timepiece, as he designs a fully customized watch. He can choose from four different styles, multiple face types, various band materials, and even add custom engraving.

For the master pancake, burger and grill-cheese maker in the house, this portable electric griddle is the right gear to elevate his game. A full-sized Wolf range may not be in the budget this year, but thankfully, you can purchase the appliance’s best part.

Weekend getaways are finally back on the regular rotation! Upgrade his airline lounge look with this gorgeous blue leather weekender from Nixon. It’s just the right mix of business and rock and roll to take him through the terminal in style.

Tired of the Peloton? Try a new way to break a sweat. The NordicTrack rower, a smart rower with a seemingly infinite number of iFIT trainers and built-in classes, helps blast calories with every workout. And of course, this is one of those perfect gifts that is definitely for him, but also definitely for you.

This warm, soft, cashmere beanie makes for a great spoil-him gift. This lightweight version is made of recycled cashmere, and is perfect for all climates — whether he’s commuting into the city, or grabbing Saturday morning coffee around the corner. The beanie comes in eight colorways, so you can pick one that goes perfectly with his eyes, his jacket, or his favorite hoodie.
