There are very few men that I find easy to buy for. Unless you’re my brother and actually enjoy getting the new model of your favorite shoe every year for the holidays, I struggle to find gifts for you every single year. Maybe that’s because I’m a woman that I find other women easier to shop for, but if that was the case, all men would rock the best gifts for him and we know that’s not the case.
Maybe they are super picky when it comes to clothing, or maybe it seems like they already have everything they need, or maybe they are just worse at announcing things that they need throughout the year {yeah, that’s probably it}. But, whatever the reason, it is always men left on my list come December 15th.
Not this year, folks. This year I vow to be done early, and only have items that I’m looking forward to purchasing left on my list in mid to late December. Wish me luck.
Or, remind me that I already made this list, and I just need to stick to it and buy multiples of these best gifts for him.
Let’s get into the best gifts for him
1. RapidX MyCharging Station.
Remember the days when rooms had a maximum of two outlets and you only needed one of them? Those days are gone.

MyCharging Station from RapidX solves all of your tech charging woes.
With the ability to charge 7 different devices ranging from watches to laptops to tablets and more, the MyCharging Station is bound to make your life a whole lot easier.

2. AVID headsets for kids and adults
If you have a guy who loves gaming, you will want to know more about AVIGA headsets, specifically the AVIGA AP-1000 Wired Gaming Headset. More and more bonding is happening online these days, especially if you have family that lives far away or has odd schedules. My husband, brother-in-law and nephew started doing game parties where they play games together, and I am a huge fan. Our nephew lives across the state, so being able to connect with him on a random Tuesday is really important to me, and it’s a bonus that they get to play a game together. For these game parties, an AVIGA headset became a must-have with their noise-canceling mic with swivel mute function and the long-wearing comfort cushioning of the headset.
Even to play solo, an AVIGA headset has such crisp clarity that you can pick up tiny noises from the game through the headset that you can’t perceive without the stereo sound. If you’ve ever played games that involve covert ops or needing to be aware of your surroundings, you know how important stereo sound is, and AVIGA headsets are a great option.
If your younger kids want to get in on the action and be just like Daddy, the WonderEars AP-400 Headset is the perfect introduction to gaming. They have the same comfort and sound quality of the AVIGA AP-1000 headset in a kid-friendly package.
The AVID wired gaming headsets come in either 3.5mm TRRS or USB so they can work with Xbox Series X|S, Playstation 5, PC/MAC, and more. Shop AVID products to see more headphones, headsets, earphones and earbuds.
3. Handmade leather toiletry bag from NOVICA
This leather toiletry bag from NOVICA came highly recommended to me, and as soon as I saw it, I knew it was perfect. We’ve had other toiletry bags before, but they have always been huge and bulky canvas bags that the whole family packed into.
Now that the kids are older and we have done more traveling without kids {or at least without packing all of their bathroom items in our bags}, I’ve been searching for a classic toiletry bag to gift my husband. I’ve never found one that was perfect for road trips with the family as well as business trips solo. Until now.
The craftsmanship in the leather toiletry bag is what immediately sets it apart. The detail seaming down the side adds a little bit of playfulness, without straying from the very classic design that I love. The lining is well made and can stand up to whatever we’re toting, and it even includes a small pocket that can keep small items separate. A zippered closure keeps the bag secured in your suitcase.
But, most of all, I love knowing that the toiletry bag was made by an artisan just for me. Ricardo Hinojosa in Mexico makes stunning leather bags and accessories for all occasions, and each one is gorgeous and functional. From satchels to wallets, there’s something for everyone and it’s just waiting to be shipped to you from NOVICA, all beautifully packaged and wrapped for gifting.
You can buy the leather toiletry travel bag from NOVICA here.
4. Lumina webcam
Hey guys, I think it’s safe to say that Zoom meetings aren’t going anywhere anytime soon. And really, aren’t you kind of happy about that? No more driving or traveling by air to go to an hour-long meeting when you can do the same meeting in the comfort of your own home. The one bummer? Terrible image quality that we’ve all learned to deal with. But, what if we all had Lumina webcams to make Zoom meeting even better?
Lumina’s depth-sensing technology hides distractions with an easily configurable background bokeh effect that you can control completely. It also has an adaptive color correction system that is smart enough to boost or mute colors while keeping skin tones natural. And, as if that’s not enough, Lumina’s AI Cameraman can actually follow you throughout the call, making sure you have perfect framing no matter how you move.
Just plug in the USB type C cable in your computer and Lumina will connect immediately. It’s that simple. And, that beautiful.
You can find the Lumina webcam on Amazon.
5. Mad Tree Woodcrafts handmade boxes
Where do you keep your most precious items? Let me guess: some are in your purse, some are in your nightstand, some are in a cardboard box in storage, and others are around there *somewhere*… And then there are others that were so special that you put them somewhere so safe that you may never find them.
No judgement here, I was in the same place as you until this year. This summer, to be exact. That’s when I found Mad Tree Woodcrafts and they made me the most gorgeous handmade keepsake memory box for all my sentimental items.
This handmade wooden keepsake box is a gorgeous work of art, and the perfect place to store all of my sentimental treasures. We’re not talking about a basic wooden box that’s been stained in different colors, rather this is an heirloom-quality handmade hardwood box made with only the finest quality components.
Truly, words don’t even do it justice. The exquisite craftsmanship is apparent in every single detail of the Mad Tree Woodcrafts personalized keepsake box. From the single pieces of walnut hardwood that make up each side of the box to give it a consistent grain, to the contrasting hardwood maple corner splines and miter joinery, it’s apparent at first glance that this box is something special.
If you want to wow him this holiday season, order your Mad Tree Woodcrafts keepsake box today. You can start shopping here.

7. Polyver Sweden boots
In an unusual turn of events, the Pacific Northwest got tons of snow this week. Normally, we pull down our boots with plenty of time before the snow hits us in late December or January, but this year, we found ourselves running around searching for boots in the morning before school as the snow started dumping and our car was undrivable. Thank goodness we had these new Polyver Sweden winter high boots that boast being able to handle conditions between +10°C/+50°F to -40°C/-40°F.
Polyver Sweden understands what it takes to keep your feet warm and comfortable, which is why we’ve all been fighting over these warm-lined high boots all week. No amount of “cute” or “stylish” matters when it’s literally freezing outside, and all you want is to keep your toes warm while you get where you need to go. With these Polyver boots to keep us warm and dry, we all got safely to and from school, and comfortably through a record-breaking sledding day with the family.
In addition to keeping your feet dry with a seamless and waterproof exterior, these boots also have great traction that kept us from slipping and sliding all over when the snow inevitably turned to ice with the fluctuating temperatures. In short, if your favorite guy gets in a lot of snow, he needs these.
8. Innova Auto tools
If the guy on your list is a true DIY-er, he needs to know about Innova Auto. They make tools for anyone who wants to know more about their car and possibly fix a few things themselves. Why blindly trust mechanic shops or buy random parts that you might not need when you can just get the answers you need, right at home?
The Innova CarScan helps you diagnose, order parts, and then clear any check engine notifications, all without ever involving a mechanic.
9. Cheese Brothers Gift Packs

14. FORM Basketball Training Tool
Whether your guy is a father and looking for bond with their kid, or they have been known to join the local pick-up game, the FORM Basketball Training Tool has your back. The FORM at first glance is a cubed basketball, but it is actually so much more than that. It is made of durable high-density expanded polyethylene and synthetic leather for indoor/outdoor use.
Yes, I know. It may look and sound crazy, but the FORM can help improve your game, or even just your game of H-O-R-S-E. It works in 4 different ways to help you FORM your shot and accuracy for adults and kids. The FORM comes in multiple sizes and weights: Men’s, Youth/Women’s and Kid’s. See sizing chart to see what size your need for your guy {and his mini}.
The first way it helps is to ensure that you are holding the ball correctly. The FORM’s beveled edges help guide finger placement to ensure a straight shot every time. Secondly, it helps you level the shot, creating proper elbow-wrist alignment as you release the shot. It also helps you best use your guide hand to balance the shot. Finally, it helps with arm extension and wrist flick to create a powerful shot.

The Jameson Black Barrel is the perfect bottle to gift. It’s triple distilled Irish whiskey that’s smooth enough to drink solo, but also pairs well in Old Fashioned and Whiskey Sour cocktails.
