50 OF THE MOST USEFUL GIFTS FOR HIM

First of all, big thank you to Alex for helping me with this post! We worked together to bring you the ultimate gift guide of the most useful gifts for him, by him! That said, these gifts are geared towards Alex’s taste which is outdoorsy/functional but I do think there’s something for every kind of guy on your list!

Alex actually hand-selected each one of these gifts and with good reason behind each one. He is a man about function and practicality, everything has to have a purpose. The gifts he chose reflect that as well as his adventurous, outdoor spirit.

Scroll down for a list of the items you see on the guide above and then below the list are even more ideas hand picked by us! Without further adieu, hope you guys enjoy these gift ideas!

1 // MIZZEN AND MAIN PULLOVER

High quality clothes that last, investment pieces but worth it and great for gifts! Alex also loves their button down shirts, I get him one a year for Christmas! (Nordstrom, $125)

2 // MERREL ADVENTURE MOC SHOE

Alex’s everyday show of choice, he says they’re super comfortable and loves that they just slip on. (Nordstrom, $100)

3 // CALPAK 2-PC LUGGAGE SET

I think it’s time we invest in some actual adult luggage haha, CALPAK is our pick because they’re a reliable, functional but also stylish brand. (Nordstrom, $260)

4 // POLARIZED SUNGLASSES BY PEPPERS

Alex’s favorite sunglasses, they look like Oakleys but are a fraction of the price! (Amazon, $45)

5 // RFID BLOCKING MONEY CLIP

Alex has never been a wallet guy, this money clip is his favorite it has a bunch of awesome features! (Amazon, $18)

6 // COMFY PAJAMA SET

Pajamas he’ll actually wear because they’re not matchy-matchy but still festive.(Nordstrom, $39)

7 // CARHARTT HAT

Great basic man hat, Alex has been wearing these Carhartt hates since we met back in high school! (Nordstrom, $28)

8 // TILE PRO 2-PACK

Do you know someone who is constantly misplacing things like their keys? This is the perfect thing for them! (Amazon, $40)

9 // GENUINE LEATHER GLOVES

Super high quality genuine leather gloves, they’ll keep his hands warm and he can also use them for light outdoor work! (Nordstrom, $89)

10 // HERSCHEL DUFFEL BAG

Every guy needs a good weekender bag, Alex loves this one! (Nordstrom, $90)

11 // RETRO 4-SLICE TOASTER

Alex likes traditional toasted while I prefer toaster ovens. I love the sleek and retro design of this one so I decided to compromise and get him this! (QVC, $200)

12 // SPYDERCO KNIFE

We’ve been Spyderco people for years, Alex since high school! We always have our knives on us when working outside, they are extremely handy and Spyderco is the most reliable brand and well made in our opinion! The normal blade is linked above but I’m getting Alex this Damascus blade one which I know he will LOVE! (Amazon, $51)

13 // ALL-IN-ONE SURVIVAL GEAR KIT

I don’t talk about it much but Alex is a bit of a prepper, he hasn’t gotten to a crazy crazy level yet but he’s definitely into prepping somewhat. If you know someone like that, or if they’re just an adventurous, outdoorsy guy they would love this all in one survival kit! (Amazon, $35)

14 // STYLUS PRO LED FLASHLIGHT

Flashlight that’s the size of a pen with 100 lumens, great gift for anyone! (Amazon, $18)

15 // DJI MAVIC MINI DRONE + STARTER BUNDLE

This is the drone we have, it is AWESOME! Great for travel and photography or just messing around at home or at the farm. (Amazon, $429)

16 // CARHARTT BACKPACK

Super versatile and vintage designed backpack for function but also style. And Carhartt is just one of Alex’s favorite brands ever. (Nordstrom, $138)

17 // FIREWOOD KINDLING SPLITTER

This splitter is actually much more convenient than a hatchet (and safer in my opinion). It makes splitting wood for kindling super quick, requiring less force as well. This would be a great gift if your husband is a fire wood guy! (Amazon, $60)

18 // UGG SLIPPERS

Alex loves these slippers! (Nordstrom, $110)

19 // MICROTHERM DOWN JACKET

Alex has had the older version of this jacket for almost three years so I’m going to upgrade him to this one this year! (Eddie Bauer, $115)

20 // MVMT LEATHER STRAP WATCH

This watch is totally Alex’s style, he rarely wears watches but he loves this one! (Nordstrom, $76)

21 // LEATHERMAN HEAVY DUTY MULTITOOL

Must have tool for any outdoorsman! (Amazon $120)

22 // DEEP TISSUE NECK & BACK MASSAGER

This thing just seems fantastic and I think anyone would be happy to receive it as a gift! I just ordered it for Alex! (Amazon, $35)

23 // SHERPA-LINED HOODIE

This hoodie looks extra warm with the sherpa lining! (Amazon, $29)

24 // GOPRO HERO8

We’ve been using GoPros forever, maybe since they came out! They are now on their 8th generation and also came out with the GoPro MAX this year which has 360 degree filming capabilities (not even sure how that’s possible!). Either way, great gift idea! (Amazon, $350)
