Holiday Gift Guide for Him
1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10
I've solicited my husband, Garrett, to help write this post (his first blog post here!) to add a much needed male perspective. From clothing, to skincare, to travel and gadgets, Garrett covers his favorite items for the season and why he recommends them.
"I'm a man who likes quality. I typically don't like to spend a lot of money on myself, but one place I will spend is on my luggage. I travel a lot for work and having a nice bag or suitcase that will hold up for a long time is worth the money to me."
"Every guy I know appreciates a good cooler. For anyone who likes to tailgate, fish, or just have cold drinks for parties, it's a great gift idea. We used ours this year hosting Thanksgiving and it exceeded my expectations."
"We both love craft beer. This growler has become my new favorite toy. We use is for parties, tailgates, hikes, picnics...we love it."
"I believe a lot of men neglect a skincare regimen, and I was one of them. This is the first skincare brand Emily ever purchased for me. I have noticed a huge difference in the quality of my skin since using it. It takes a couple of extra minutes in my morning routine but I have been happy with the results."
"I love a good pair of boots. . These are most comfortable boots I have ever worn. The side zipper makes them very easy to put on and take off. I would definitely recommend these for a hiking or camping trip. They also work for a casual outfit in the rain or snow because they are weather resistant.
"Another brand Emily introduced me to is Taylrd. I'm 6'4" and I have trouble finding pants that fit well. They are either too tight or too baggy. I really like the pants and shirts from this company because you can choose what fit you want. It's great for guys with an athletic build, like me, that want their clothes a little more form-fitted."
"Twillory shirts have a been a great addition to my closet. They fit well to my body and look sharp. I received several compliments on them during a recent destination wedding in the Dominican Republic."
"I like vests because they keep you warm but don't cover up your whole outfit like a jacket. You can usually wear them indoors and do not have to worry about leaving them behind at a restaurant."
"I've had a few different dopp kits in the past, but Emily got this one for me and I really love it. It holds a lot and it is very sturdy. It matches my overnighter perfectly."
"Mizzen+Main's shirts are great. They're made from performance wear fabric which makes them breathable. They also are "moisture wicking" meaning when you sweat into the shirt, it dries quickly. They are great for former athletes like myself or current athletes like JJ Watt and Phil Mickelson"
