\n

Christmas shopping can be incredibly stressful, especially when you have no clue about what you should buy for the special man (or men) in your life. It used to be so easy when we were younger! But as we age, most men tend to just buy what they need, when they need it \u2013 leaving us utterly clueless as to what to buy them come Christmas time.<\/p>\n

So, other than a fantastic Christmas card, what do you get for the man who seemingly has everything? This is something that baffles many people who want to find the perfect gift for their loved ones \u2013 especially if they don\u2019t have much in common with their gift recipient.<\/p>\n

Never fear, however, because we\u2019ve put together a list of 11 unique Christmas gift ideas for men that you probably haven\u2019t thought of. This guide includes both practical and purely ornamental suggestions, and will help you come up with some great gift ideas for the man who has it all and wants for nothing.<\/p>\n

Without further ado:<\/p>\n

1. Self-Cleaning Water Bottle<\/h4>\n

Hydration is so important! Many people don\u2019t realise just how vital it is to drink enough water throughout the day. Getting the man in your life a normal water bottle might seem a bit uninspired \u2013 but did you know that self-cleaning water bottles exist? These are not only novel but also quite practical for the busy man.
\nThe self-cleaning feature activates every two hours to kill bacteria, and prevent that tell-tale stale smell that other water bottles may develop over time. You can find options that have a double wall vacuum insulated bottle that is able to keep beverages cold for upwards to 24 hours and items hot for 12 hours. These are typically charged using a USB charger and can last for about a month on a full charge.<\/p>\n

2. Projector<\/h4>\n

If the man in your life is a fan of good movies and TV shows (and, really, who isn\u2019t?) then why not buy them an at-home projector? You can get fantastic projectors that are able to be used indoors and outdoors, allowing your man to enjoy a cinema-like experience whenever he wants at home. This is perfect for a post-pandemic gift if real cinemas still don\u2019t seem a desirable place to go.
\nThere are quite a few different options available, from smaller portable ones that can be moved around wherever they are needed, or you can get larger, stationary ones installed in their man cave. Whichever option you are deciding on, you can find the perfect one for your loved one.<\/p>\n

3. Bonsai Tree<\/h4>\n

A bonsai tree is a truly unique gift for any man that is more than just a decoration for his home or office desk. The term \u201cbonsai\u201d actually isn\u2019t the name of a tree species \u2013 it is the term for any miniature sized tree species that is kept in a pot or vase. The point of this tree is to offer a meditative experience for those who practice this exercise of trimming the tree.
\nThey can not only shape the bonsai tree however they want to, but the actual act of trimming the tree is a great stress reliever, to give them some inner peace while they are working. Plus, once they are done with it, they have something beautiful to decorate their desk with!<\/p>\n

4. Car Organiser or Boot Tidy<\/h4>\n

Obviously, we can\u2019t generalise an entire gender. But let\u2019s face it \u2013 most men love their cars. Some men spend hours meticulously cleaning their cars inside and out every couple of weeks. But it can be tricky to keep the car tidy day-to-day, especially with kids or a busy job. Getting them something like a car organiser or boot tidy can be a truly thoughtful gift because it helps them to keep their space clean.
\nSome car organisers can be very basic, while others can hold all of their electronics, water bottles, car cleaning accessories and coffee cups. Think about which type of car organiser they would need to keep their car looking as great as when they bought it \u2013 and don\u2019t forget to consider the model of their car, as this can affect which organisers will fit.<\/p>\n

5. Coffee Subscription<\/h4>\n

Does the man in your life love his coffee? If so, investing in a coffee subscription box can be an excellent idea. There are several different options available for this, but the basics of all of them are this: you answer some questions about the type of coffee that they drink and love, and then the subscription service will match them to a new coffee every month.<\/p>\n

They can easily discover new coffees that they will love. Was there a coffee that he didn\u2019t like? You can often \u201clike\u201d or \u201cdislike\u201d the coffees, which can help them get a better idea of which coffees to send and which ones not to. You can adjust the schedule to deliver coffee when you think you\u2019ll need it, ensuring that there\u2019s always freshly roasted coffee beans available for use. Pay for a few months or an entire year of a coffee subscription and this truly will be the gift that keeps on giving.<\/p>\n

6. Pour-Over Coffee Maker<\/h4>\n

Speaking of coffee, if you are going to invest in quality beans for the man in your life you will want to get him a coffee maker so that he can better enjoy the quality of freshly roasted coffee beans. Pour over coffee makers offer an excellent and easy way to enjoy your coffee.<\/p>\n

This is a type of coffee maker that slowly drips hot water over ground beans, bloomed out by an immersion brewer, extracting the coffee solubles. When you pour over slowly, the extraction process becomes more complex and balanced–so your cup is richer. Much less water filters through the coffee when brewed this way, so it’s stronger, richer in flavor and often more complex in aroma.<\/p>\n

7. Fancy Chef Knife<\/h4>\n

If your special man enjoys cooking, then you may want to consider getting him a fancy chef knife that he can use over and over again when whipping together amazing meals. There is a significant difference in price and quality depending on brands and materials, so you should figure out your budget and then do your research to determine which option gives you the most for your money.<\/p>\n

You can get something really fancy that costs several hundred dollars, or you can find a decent affordable option for the chef in your life. You could even get him an entire knife block so that he has tools for every use (along with a decent and portable knife sharpener like the AnySharp).<\/p>\n

8. Make Your Own Hot Sauce Kit<\/h4>\n

Is the man in your life an avid fan of hot sauces? It can be difficult trying to find the perfect hot sauce for someone else \u2013 there are so many different varieties available, all of which vary hugely in terms of flavour as well as the level of heat.<\/p>\n

So, why not let him get creative and make his own hot sauce with a hot sauce making it. Spicy foods can boost metabolism, but also who doesn\u2019t like a nice kick added to their pizza or chilli? You can find DIY hot sauce kits that allow the man in your life to experiment with different flavours and create something as unique as they are. As an added bonus you could even throw in a grow-your-own chillies kit, so that (eventually) he can use his own home grown hot peppers, too!<\/p>\n

9. Engraved Drink Decanter<\/h4>\n

If the man you\u2019re buying for enjoys entertaining or partakes in a tipple or two on the weekend, don\u2019t go the easy-but-dull route of simply buying him a bottle of his favourite spirit. How predictable! Instead, why not get him a personalised decanter? A decanter is a beautiful carved glass or crystal bottle that can be used to hold any kind of alcohol or spirit. Not only will it look gorgeous in the drinks cabinet, but it\u2019ll also be a great talking point at parties.
\nYou can order a decanter with customised engravings that can really make the set stand out.<\/p>\n

For example, you could have engraved:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Their name
\n\u2022 Their initials, for a more subtle monogrammed look
\n\u2022 Their company or business name
\n\u2022 Your name, so they always remember who gave it to them
\n\u2022 A special date such as their birthday or wedding anniversary<\/p>\n

You could even get a personal message engraved to let him know how much you mean to him.<\/p>\n

10. Multitool Pen<\/h4>\n

It\u2019s hard to find a guy that isn\u2019t interested in unique multitool items, which allow them to be prepared for many different scenarios. This is one reason why a multitool pen can be a great idea for the man that thinks he has everything. You can find multitool pens that not only function as regular pens, but also have many additional features such as:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Screw driver heads
\n\u2022 Spirit level
\n\u2022 Ruler
\n\u2022 Callipers
\n\u2022 Pocket knife<\/p>\n

Modern multitool pens even come with a stylus, for use with smartphones and tablets. What a handy gadget to have in your pocket \u2013 particularly for a man that works in a trade such as carpentry or building work.<\/p>\n

11. Giant Lawn Game<\/h4>\n

If the man in your life is a child at heart and really enjoys playing party games and board games, take it to the next level by buying him a giant, larger-than-life-sized lawn game that he can use when entertaining the family in his back garden.
\nYou can get giant versions of many popular games that really bring the fun back to your outdoor get-togethers \u2013 for example:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Jenga
\n\u2022 Skittles or ten-pin bowling
\n\u2022 Connect 4
\n\u2022 Darts
\n\u2022 Dominoes<\/p>\n

Bonus: these back garden games are even more fun when you\u2019ve had a drink or two, so are perfect for boozy adults-only evenings too!<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t Forget the Christmas Card!<\/h4>\n
