Flaviar
I purchased this for Tyler as a gift for our anniversary this year. If you have someone in your life who loves to try out new adult beverages, this is a great idea! You fill out a quiz based on your spirit(s) of choice and they send you test tubes of samples of smaller distilleries for you to taste before committing to a whole bottle. Tyler loved this and my Dad even requested it as a gift after he saw it too. This would definitely be a favorite with the men on your Christmas list!

AirPods
These are pretty much the only thing Tyler has told me he wants for Christmas. And while I was originally anti AirPods because I haven’t always been a fan of the way Apple’s earbuds fit, these are pretty nice and I have gotten tangled with my own headphones or forgot I was connected more often than I care to admit.

Dollar Shave Club
This is another gift I got Tyler last year for Christmas that I then in turn purchased for myself. Have you noticed how freaking expensive razors are these days? It’s absurd. But Dollar Shave Club has super affordable razors that are very high quality and you can set them up to come at a frequency of your choosing. I know razors are something not everyone would get excited about for Christmas but I assure you, this is a gift they will thank you for later.

Yeti Cooler
Listen, I know they’re expensive. But this is one of the best gifts I’ve ever given Tyler and it’s completely worth the money. It was even better because it was probably the first time I had ever gotten him something and it was a complete surprise. We have one of this one but this portable cooler bag would be great for a car trip or a picnic or something where you don’t want to lug the big cooler around.

Makerspace
This was a recommendation from Things I Bought and Liked. If you don’t follow her, you should. But this gift is definitely unusual but would be perfect for the guy who has everything and likes to tinker around with cool new “toys”. There are two and Richmond (here and here) or just Google “makerspace” and your location and you’re sure to find one near you.

Bean Boots
These are the most classic duck boot there is. Tyler and I each have a pair and love them. They’re not easy to get on but that means nothing else is getting in your boots and your feet are staying nice and toasty. They do tend to sell out quickly once the weather gets bad so get some now before they’re on back order until Spring…not that I know that from personal experience or anything.
- Rocketbook
If the man is your life is a tech nerd, this notebook looks really cool. I saw a demo online and it is basically a notebook that you write in with erasable ink, snap a picture in the app (it’s free) and it basically scans all of your pages so you have them stored electronically. And it’s inexpensive for such a cool “toy”.
