2021 Men’s Gift Guide
Are you tired of shopping for men for the holidays? Because, same. Whether it be a Dad, a brother, a boyfriend, an in-law…whatever men in your life, it’s always the worst spending days and days mulling over what to get them. And in the end, you aren’t even satisfied with it. As difficult as it was, I carefully thought about what would be the perfect men’s gift guide. All of the items on this list are things I’ve personally gotten men in the past, that they’ve loved. I also asked around to find out what men have gotten in the past that they’ve loved, or what they’re always secretly hoping they get. This guide is very inclusive an ranged from $10-$300 so there’s something for everybody! I’d love to know what you’re getting your guys, or what you’ve got them in the past that they still use today. Happy shopping!
Mick’s 2021 Men’s Holiday Gift Guide
Ugg Mocassins – $110
You can ask my Dad who has worn these the past 300 and so days straight since I gifted these to him last year. They’re the perfect gift because I’ve never met a man who doesn’t like to be as comfortable as possible in his place. They’re a gift that can be used every day and their quality holds up to all of the pressures of those who are wearing them.
Cool Beer Glasses – $39.95
There’s absolutely nothing in this world worse than a cold beer. Enough said.

Biodegradeable Golf Balls – $69.99
This is one is my favorite. Living in Michigan, a lot of time is spent up north, specifically on lakes. These biodegradable golf balls are safe to hit in the lake or any body of water. Can you imagine setting up a tee and hitting these guys into the beautiful, calm water all night? Sounds like their paradise.
Lululemon Joggers – $118
You can not go wrong with anything from Lululemon. Men don’t always buy quality clothing for themselves, so I love gifting amazing, quality, comfort clothing. I’m known as the Lulu gateway in my family. I always gift a pair of joggers or a shirt and the next thing you know…they’re all addicted. Nothing says I love you like giving them something to make them feel cozy in amazing athleisure.

Yeti Travel Mug – $34.99
I’ll admit, I have one of these myself and think everyone should have one. For those cold days outside on the golf course, for those mornings on the commute to work, for those late evening walks outside…it’s perfect for everything. I know the concept of a Yeti travel mug is nothing new, but the added side handle and the twist on lid change the game for me on this one.

Whiskey/Bourbon Decanter – $29.95
Every alcohol lover should have a whiskey/bourbon decanter. It’s the best way to showcase that you truly care about what you’re drinking. As a whiskey girl myself, I know how much fun the theater of being a whiskey and bourbon lover is. And hey, it could be the first pretty thing for them to display on their countertop.
Cooler Backpack- $36.95
I know I keep going back to golf, but I swear, it’s universally loved by men. I mean, seriously, I’ve never met one that doesn’t like to spend their days on the course. The cooler backpack is a life-changer. Being able to carry your beer on your back instead of holding a 50 lb. cooler in your hands is truly an upgrade in your quality of life. It doesn’t have to be used for golf, either. It’s perfect for taking your booze anywhere!
JBL Portable Speaker – $49.99
Music is the soundtrack behind all of our moments. We’re always listening to some sort of music while literally doing anything. This little guy is inexpensive, has amazing sound quality, and is small and portable. It’s perfect to stow quickly and take anywhere and everywhere. It’ll end up being the sidekick to whatever he’s doing.

Infrared Smokeless Indoor Grill – $109.99
This one was a staple in my house for a long time. Infrared, smokeless grilling makes it possible to still enjoy barbecue and grilled food in the winter. Being able to cook quality, grilled food all year round is a must for any meat lover and an indoor, smokeless grill can help you do that.
Yeti Cup Holder Converter – $24.95
I can’t count how many times I’m in a rush and end up bringing my full coffee mug in the car with me. I always forget that they never fit in the cup holders. I can’t be the only one, right?! The cup holder converters help fit any cup or mug in your car’s cupholder so you can still drive safely and hands-free.

Ice Sphere Molds – $10.99
These ice spheres are so much fun. If the man you’re buying for likes drinking alcohol straight or slow, this is perfect. The ice spheres melt slower and don’t dilute the alcohol or drink as fast. And, they look super cool.
Shinola Desk Clock – $295
This is a splurge but it’s such a fun show piece. This will make any desk or side table look that much more put together and professional. Shinola is a fantastic Detroit brand and any piece in his house is sure to be a conversation starter.

Shoe Deoderizers – $13.98
This gift might be a little mean, but they’ll quickly learn that they can’t live without them. Shoe deoderizers are so perfect for popping in your shoes after work, after being outside, after playing a sport, after anything! He won’t tell you that he’ll end up loving them, but he will.
Shot Glasses – $22.99
Almost like the joke that no man that lives alone has a headboard, no man that lives alone has shot glasses, either. And if they do, it’s probably just one lonely glass. Subtely tell them that it’s time to stop taking shots out of red solo cups by getting them a new set of shot glasses.
Apple Airtag – $29.99
Never have them ask you where their car keys are again. Get them an Apple Airtag and a keychain attachment so the embarrassing ‘look through their couch cushions and all of their pants pockets’ moment is a thing of the past.

From Crook to Cook, Snoop Dogg Cookbook – $12.74
This book is hilarious. It also has some really good recipes. I’ve gotten this for people before and even if they never cook out of it, they say it’s a fun read and something cool to display in their kitchen.
Smoker Gun – $59.97
Let them incorporate that smokey taste they love into everything, and very easily, too. A smoker gun is so much fun and lets the average person add the flavor of smoke into food and drinks!
Scoville Labratory Hot Sauce Challenge Set – $44.99
Okay, who couldn’t love this? And also, who wouldn’t want to watch someone do this? With the rise of hot sauce challenges and with the rise of cocky men saying, “I could totally do that”…put them to the test.

Custom Bar Cart – $100-$300
This gift idea is so much fun. Create him his very own custom bar cart! Get an inexpensive cart off of Amazon, get some glasses, get his favorite liquor, and get some mixers. This one is so thoughtful and will be sure to be an absolute hit.
Massage Gun – $79.99
For all those hard-working guys and athletes, this is perfect. This massage gun is perfect for after a long day at work, after a workout, after a day of sports, or just a day of nothing. We’re all getting older, we have to take care of our aging bods.
