As we kick of Gift Guide week, I’m rounding up the best of the best ideas for all the guys in your life. Whether it’s your dad, brother, boyfriend or husband, there’s a little something for everyone here. Similar to what I mentioned in the Gift Guide: For Her, these gift guides are specifically curated with things I’ve either gifted someone or something my dad/brother own and love.

First up is this Patagonia Better Sweater Quarter Zip Jacket. I got this for my dad last year for Christmas and it’s a staple for him…especially in the snowy Upstate NY winter months. The quarter zip is a little more “dressy” dare I say than the full zip so he wears this out and about, or just lounging around the house. It runs TTS and comes in tons of great colors like this deep red, blue, grey and beyond.

Next up is the Herschel Supply Co. Duffel Bag. This is perfect for the guy in your life that is on the go. Whether it is for a business trip or a weekend getaway, this bag holds everything and I love the shoe compartment on the side. It comes with leather handles or a removable and adjustable strap for easy carrying. This would make a great carry on bag, too!

This next item is something my brother and I got for my dad for Father’s Day a few years ago and he still uses it to this day. That’s when you know it’s a good one! The Aletc Lansing Life Jacket Jolt Wireless Speaker with Lights is perfect for the guy who wants to listen to his music anywhere and everywhere. The quality is amazing and this thing is basically indestructible. Take it to the beach, your backyard, tailgating, outside while doing yard work - anywhere!

I don’t know about the guys in your life but my dad and brother LOVE coffee! They are both on the go a lot for their jobs so the Yeti Rambler 20oz. Tumbler is their coffee-while-traveling must-have. I have one of these, too, and they keep your drinks warm or cold for hours and hours and hours. For the die-hard coffee lover, it even comes in a Rambler 30.oz Tumbler [$34.99]. If your guy isn’t into coffee and is more of a beer drinker, the Insulated Rambler Colster [$24.99] is perfect to keep their brews cold, even on hot days.

Slippers are all the rage these days and have been for quite some time. My dad basically lives in these L.L. Bean Wicked Good Moccasins all fall and winter long. They are such a classic style and the inside gives all the cozy vibes. These moccasins hold up really well over time and run TTS.

My dad and brother both love to grill just about anything and everything. And so do I! The Weber iGrill 3 App-Connected Thermometer is perfect for both the avid or newbie griller. The thermometer connects to an app on your phone and takes all of the guesswork out of grilling. You can select from preset or create custom timer notifications right from your smart phone. Avid grillers will love the technology aspect, while newbie grillers will easily learn the ins-and-outs of grilling in no time!

Next, are the 1901 Troy Sneaker from Nordstrom. My dad and brother aren’t the biggest fashion people but still like to look put-together. These sneakers would be perfect for either the fashion-forward or minimalist guy, and can easily be worn in business casual work settings, on the weekend for date night, or to a game with the guys. They come in two colors, both neutral for every and any guy’s style!

And last but not least, the Duluth Trading Free Swingin’ Waffle Lined Flannel. I’ve gotten this for both my dad and brother and they love them! Super warm for even the coldest of days and great to wear out and about, outside doing yard work, or just lounging around the house. These run TTS and come in a few different color combinations.

There you have it, my 2019 Gift Guide for Him! If you have any must-have gift suggestions let me know and I’ll add them to a bonus section at the bottom of this post. Happy holidays!
