Chia sẻ bài viết

You’ve hit on a unique gift; a thoughtful gift that he’ll rip open and exclaim in delight over…haven’t you? Even the stereotypically simple task of choosing from among the best gifts for men can leave you second guessing.

Whether you’re anticipating a birthday, an anniversary, Father’s Day or just want to spring something luxury on him without Valentine’s Day as an excuse, we’ve got a roster of affordable and luxury gifts to suggest in the list to follow.

Men’s gifts — whether they’re gifts for dads, brothers or your impossible-to-please boyfriend — should all have one thing in common: quality. The perfect gift, then, will vary from person to person. But everything from novelty gadgets and silly gestures to iPhones and trips to New York should pass the sniff test. We can vouch as such for all of the below, but if you’d like some general ideas, a cheese hamper, cocktail delivery subscription, new fragrance, candle or bottle of booze tend to go down a treat.

As part of her ongoing quest to find gifts both cliché and unusual, GQ’s gift expert Jessie Atkinson tries and tests multiple products both at launch events and at home. She’s tried out — and swears by — plenty of the unisex choices in this list, and is particularly fond of her Desmond & Dempsey dressing gown and Aesop hand balm (in turn, bought for her as a gift). Elsewhere, she relies on recommendations from the men in her life, including writers and editors at GQ, or else selects from brands with excellent customer reviews or from which she or someone she trusts has bought from before.
