16 Fantastic Gifts for Your Boyfriend this Christmas

It seems the moment the leaves start changing color, Christmas decorations adorn our local superstores. While this can cause the seasonal eye-roll, it’s also a great reminder—Christmas is coming and it’s never too early to get your gifts in order. It feels a bit odd here in Mallorca as this year we are still on flip-flops and swimming in the sea, but I love to think and buy in advance when possible because I love to save money, and last minute rush means paying more for the same thing. Shopping for that special guy can offer a special kind of frustration, but I’ve made it easy. Browse these fantastic gift ideas for your boyfriend, sorted by personality type to make it even easier. Happy Christmas shopping!

Gift Ideas for the Adventurous Guy

  1. An Experience

The adventurous heart tends to value experience over material, so consider buying him an adventure this Christmas. Sites like Cloud9Living.com offer experiential gifts ranging from sky-diving excursions to white water rafting daytrips.

  1. A Weekend Getaway

Indulge his taste for adventure with a weekend getaway. Plan a camping trip with friends, or keep it romantic and rent a cabin for just the two of you.

  1. Camping Gear

If he’s already an avid camper, keep him safe and comfortable in the great outdoors with some new camping gear. Shop REI for the latest in tents, apparel, and outdoor cooking accessories.

  1. Travel Accessories

If the adventurer is jet-setting around the globe, make sure his plane rides are as comfortable as possible with some travel accessories—whether you opt for a neck pillow or state-of-the-art carry-on bag, your gift will be both thoughtful and practical.

Gift Ideas for the Bookworm

  1. Kindle

If your bookworm is constantly on the go, make sure he can take his literature with him everywhere with a convenient, lightweight Kindle.

  1. Book of the Month Club

If your guy loves the feel and smell of a good old-fashion paper book, keep his library stocked with a book of the month club that sends a new thriller, historical fiction, or biography to his front door every few months.

  1. Whiskey tumblers

If he loves to kick back with a nice glass of scotch and a good novel, help him imbibe in style. A classy set of whiskey tumblers is the perfect addition to every guy’s study, and will make every sip of single malt that much more enjoyable.

  1. A Signed Book

If he’s an avid fan of a certain author, you can’t go wrong with a copy of his favorite novel, signed by the author themselves. Check out Premiere Collectibles to find a variety of autographed books.

Gift Ideas for the Fashion-Forward Dude

  1. New Sunglasses

The right pair of shades can up the ante on his fashion game while protecting those eyes you fell in love with. Stick with classic designs from brands like Ray-Ban or grab him a gift certificate for SunglassHut.

  1. A Staple Timepiece

The classic timepiece is the quintessential men’s accessory, and there’s no shortage of watches designed to complement a variety of styles. MVMT offers plenty of nice watches for men, so start browsing and make sure he’s always on time—or at least give him a push in the right direction.

  1. Trunk Club Subscription

Keep him in fashion year-round with a Trunk Club subscription. This modern service sends stylish apparel to his door each month—the stuff he likes, he keeps, and the stuff he doesn’t? Send it right back.

    My boy friend/husband of almost 49 years is easy,just take him out to dinner at Chili’s. He doesn’t care about clothes but boy does he like to eat.
    Thanks for all the great suggestions tho, appreciate all your hard work looking all those ideas up to share with us.
    Have wonderful week Pili.

      Jane I really like that type of guy, so easy to please. No brainstorming just choose his favorite place to eat and enjoy the meal. My husband loves to eat too, but he’s quite more complicated. Oh well, who said life is easy.
      Thank you so much for stopping by, have a wonderful week you too.

    So many ideas Pili. My hubby is one of those adventurous ones that loves to cook (thank goodness, otherwise we’de starve or have to live off of take aways). so you’ve just made my life so much easier. Maybe we’ll do a Cooking CLass Date Night out in the wilderness somewhere. I might just learn a thing or two 😉

    • Pili says:

      How is that many men loves to cook? Mine too, and I excuse myself thinking he likes it because he doesn’t have to do it every day. It’s great yours do it so you can DIY meanwhile. That Cooking Class sounds fun, any excuse is good to spend time out together.

    Pili I also love that date night cooking class. Too bad I can’t take advantage of it now. I’ll have to look into something else for him. But he does love to cook.
