Look, whether you’ve been dating for six months or six years, figuring out what to get your boyfriend for the holidays can still feel pretty impossible. Sure, you love him—but do you know what he really wants this holiday season? Not unless he straight up tells you, in which case, consider yourself lucky.
Most guys give the typical shrug along with an unhelpful “I don’t know, surprise me.” If your boyfriend is one of those guys, listen up. No matter what your boyfriend is into, there’s a perfect gift out there for him. If he’s an athlete (the nicer way of saying gym rat), upgrade his post-workout recovery with a massage gun.
A guy with a taste for the finer things might appreciate some tasteful men’s jewelry or a new signature cologne. And if sports are basically his entire personality, another piece of merch repping his favorite team is always a winning play. Whoever your boyfriend is, we know what he wants—and it’s on this list.
Even if he’s not into The Last of Us, he will very much be into this jacket that Pedro Pascal wears on the show. Flint and Tinder’s waxed trucker is about as good a fall jacket as you’ll find. It’s a timeless look with a tough build, and it’s made in the U.S.A.
The flannel lining gives it some warmth without going over the top. It’s a perfect mid-weight piece. A simple, easy-to-wear dress watch is a great way to tell him he ought to dress up a little more often.
You should not be on the arm of a man who consistently wears sweatpants out of the house. But if he can’t give up his comfy pants, Lululemon’s ABCs are a nice compromise. If you’ve got a Bourdain acolyte on your hands, maybe one who was gutted by the documentary or recent biopic, then remind him of the good times with this posthumous travel guide to every place in the world Bourdain marveled over.
