As the holidays start to come around, the pressure to find the perfect gift intensifies. This can be felt the most in romantic relationships. You obviously want to find something that you’re excited to give, and that your boyfriend is going to love receiving. The want to give the perfect gift can be intense, and sometimes all the ideas can feel a little overwhelming. Personally, I know that I always struggled with this, so I have put together this list of the 15 best Christmas gifts for boyfriends. By the time you’re through with this list, you’ll be inspired with the right gift idea for him!
The best gifts for boyfriends are ones that you know your boyfriend wants, but would never think about buying for himself. Extra accessories for his hobbies are a great way to show that you listen to his interests and care about supporting him. Things with a little hint of luxury are always fun to give as Christmas gifts, too, so you’ll see plenty of personalization and quality materials on this list.
Watch
Price: Depends on Brand
Depending on what his style is, a watch could never go wrong. Whether it be sophisticated (such as one from Fossil), or a classic Apple Watch, this item is sure to up your boyfriend’s style.
Airtag
Price: $30
The AirTag is extremely convenient and useful. I didn’t know how much I needed it until I had it, and I am sure your boyfriend will feel the same. He can place it in his wallet, or on his keychain (in this case, you should buy him the AirTag holder as well). In case your boyfriend misplaces his items or if they unfortunately get stolen, he will be able to recover them instantly with the help of his AirTag.
Chain
Price: Depends on brand
With this gift, it is helpful to know his preferences. If he already has a chain, then start paying attention to how long or short it is. If he doesn’t, I would recommend going for a length that is right in the middle (usually it is 24”). There’s also the option to add a pendant to the chain. It could be an initial, cross, or something else you know he’d enjoy.
Game for his console
Price: Usually ranges from $70-$100
If your boyfriend is a gamer, this is a gift he will absolutely love. One specific game that is currently trending among many people is Modern Warfare 2. Make sure that you buy the game that is fit for his gaming console.
speaker
Price: Depends on brand and size
This is a perfect gift for almost everybody. A speaker can be used for when he is by himself, in a social environment, working out, and more. The size will play a factor in how it is used. If it is small, it can be used more often, but a larger speaker will more than likely be used for certain occasions.
Airpods
Price: $170
AirPods are an item that can be used on an everyday basis. Regardless of what he uses them for, they are an extremely high quality item to have which can be seen through the way they function. With features like noise cancellation, they have proven to be one of the best pairs of earbuds in the nation.
headphones
Price: $200 (Beats)
These are a bit different than the AirPods since these go over your head instead of two earbuds going into both ears. I have seen that these headphones are used by those who enjoy going to the gym consistently, but regardless, it all boils down to preference.
Charging station
Price: $24
After looking thoroughly, I am confident in saying that this charging station from Amazon is the best one yet. Even though it is one item, it is able to charge your iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods all in one. If he is not a fan of Apple products then there are many other options as well, but nonetheless, this item has proven to be extremely useful.
Yeti cup
Price: $38
The Yeti tumbler is great for preserving the temperatures of both cold and hot drinks. Not only is it known to be a great brand, it also looks and feels like one. The cup is durable and long lasting which confirms it to be a great gift.
Massage gun
Price: $70 (Renpho)
A massage gun is good for somebody who does a lot of physically strenuous activity (working out, maintenance, etc). After some research, it is proven that the Renpho massage gun is the best in the market right now. However, there are many options at different prices.
Slippers
Price: Depends on brand and style
As I mentioned previously, the best gifts are those that the other person would never buy for themselves, but wouldn’t mind having. That is exactly what this gift is. It is very rare that a man will go buy this item for himself, but is still something he should have. Depending on what your boyfriend’s style is and how much you want to spend on them, there are many brands of slippers that will meet his preferences.
A jersey
Price: $90+
First and foremost, you must somehow find out his favorite sport, team, and player if you do not know already. Once you do, it should be fairly simple to find a jersey that he will love.
Sweater with your initial embroidered on the sleeve
Price: Depends on brand
This gift is great because not only is it an extra piece of clothing, it is also much more personal. While you could just buy him a sweater from his favorite brand, it makes it better to add your initial on either the inside or outside of his sleeve by the wrist area. For a bonus, by yourself a sweater and do the exact same thing.
Air fryer
Price: $170 (Ninja)
As somebody who has used a Ninja air fryer first hand, I can definitely say that it’s worth every single penny. This gift would be more useful for somebody who is either in college or out of college. It makes cooking so much easier and is overall a great kitchen tool to have. If you don’t want the Ninja specifically, there are many other brands out there.
Ray-BAn sunglasses
Price: $140-$200
Ray-Ban is a great brand for sunglasses and is universally known as such. They have many top sellers, but in my opinion, the Clubmaster Classic surpasses the rest. Take my advice or don’t, the choice is yours, but there are still many other styles to choose from on their website.
Not everything on this list is going to be the right fit for your boyfriend, but hopefully this list has inspired you in some ways. There are so many great presents for you to choose from, and I hope that you end up finding one that fulfills both yours and his expectations. Happy Holidays!
