Shopping for the sports enthusiast? A Theragun for post-workout massaging is a thoughtful gift idea for your best friend; or add to their home gym with a high-end kettlebell. Nike’s running sneakers will carry them from season to season, and a classic black duffel bag is always a good idea. Have a homebody in your household? They’ll easily find comfort with a duvet bundle and Brooklinen’s striped plush robe. Or, better yet, find a perfect gift for the home—we love Dal Negro’s chess set, crafted from smooth walnut-colored wood. Then there are gifts ideal for the cooking savant—like a Nespresso machine for perfect morning brews, or a trending pizza oven (that doubles as an air fryer, if you’re crafty!) You can’t go wrong with a timeless yet unique gift idea, like a transitional quilted coat, black leather wallet, or weekender tote, ideal for trips upstate. Know and love an avid traveler? Rimowa luggage is always a good idea, and an Airbnb gift card will host them at their next destination trip. The best gifts for men, right this way.

Under-$100 Gems
Looking for gift ideas that won’t break the bank? Something that isn’t another T-shirt, sweatshirt, or a random skin-care gift set? Sending him a thought-provoking book that could change his life or a cozy room spray will make him think of you fondly as he’s reading or spritzing. Those are just two of the joyful ways to treat him—at a fraction of the price. There’s also bouclé slippers, a leather notebook, a bestselling Samba sneaker, and a classic ball cap. Discover these and more cool gifts for men under $100 below.
Best Gifts for the Cook
He watches Top Chef and Ciao House in his free time, likes to commit recipes to a book, rather than the Notes app on his cellphone, and always smells a bit like seasoning, but in a good way. The home chef comes alive in the kitchen and finds no greater joy than feeding others a home-cooked meal. Give them Nespresso’s Vertuo machine for their morning lattes or a state-of-the-art pizza oven from Ooni if there’s no space for a BBQ but you still want to indulge his grill master fantasies. Otherwise, go the everyday essentials route with a new collection of wooden spoons and stirrers, Hawkins New York’s striped apron, and a quality bottle of olive oil from Graza.
Best Gifts for the New Dad
Congratulations on the new baby! He’s a first-time dad, and while he may be freaking out about the lack of sleep and personal time, he’s thrilled for this brand-new chapter of his life. The best gift you can give a new dad is a funny meme, or a home-cooked meal. If you’ve already got both planned, the options below will also delight, from a coveted baby carrier to a memory box, and matching baseball caps. (Keep these in mind for when Father’s Day rolls around!)
Best Gifts for Athletic Men
Some of the best gifts for men are those that keep him on his A-game. Help him continue building stamina with Garmin’s running watch, a useful present that tracks more than just steps and heart rate. For rest days spent stretching and recovering, HigherDose’s infrared sauna blanket is just the ticket.
Best Gifts for the Homebody
Introverts, cozy kings, and homebodies rejoice. You’re in the right place. Make his apartment feel like a castle with Loewe’s luxe candle or Brooklinen’s bestselling robe. Or, help him rise with ease with Hatch’s sunrise alarm clock. Does he swear by a morning ritual? There’s a unique gift for that—like a plush bathrobe or sterling silver coffee maker. If he likes his games analog, a luxe chess set is the kind of anti-high-tech gift he’ll appreciate over say, a PlayStation.
Best Tech Gifts for Gadget Lovers
If audio is his forte, he’ll be thrilled to unwrap Crosley’s combination radio/CD player, an unexpected and striking gift. Take it a step further with a pair of high-quality AirPod Pros, that is, if Bang & Olufsen’s portable Bluetooth speaker risks disturbing the neighbors. Looking for a cozy addition to movie date night? A projector adds a vintage-inspired feel, and can be used in any space—the perfect gadget!
Best Timeless Gifts for the Classic Guy
Being practical doesn’t mean you have forego the element of surprise. For the classic and the elevated, provide them with a great men’s gift that’ll transcend the test of time—a Burberry quilted jacket, leather belt, Bottega briefcase, or leather loafers are four can’t-go-wrong-with options from this gift guide.
Best Indulgent Gifts for the Well-Groomed Man
Have you noticed your favorite moisturizer running out faster, or your serums going missing? Whether it’s a birthday gift or a Christmas gift, there’s no wrong time to upgrade his side of the cabinet with a meditative cologne from Bottega or a luxe bar of soap that smells of fresh tomato vines. Cyklar’s essentials gift box will have his skin extra nourished, while a stainless steel beard trimmer will keep him neat and prepared.
Best Travel Gifts for the Adventurer
They’re always on the go, and their vacations are mapped out months in advance. The avid traveler craves adventure, and they need the gear to support that obsession. Get him an AirTag and make it a personalized gift with his initials engraved on it, then pop it into Rimowa’s top-rated carry-on luggage. If they’re a less-is-more kind of packer, Rains’s water-resistant weekender will have them set to go.
