The Best Gifts for Men, According to GQ


Under $150

If you’ve stalled on unique gift ideas, you don’t have to drop an entire paycheck to get him a gift that he’ll love. Our curated best gift ideas under $150 run the gamut from gadgets to shoes that everyone is going to be wearing this summer to a colorful selection of barware that will happily dapple his interiors.

J.Crew

Cashmere Crewneck

Who among us has turned down a sensible cashmere layer? No one. This crowd-pleasing crew-neck comes in a slew of different colors and even a special sizing for Talls.

Reigning Champ

Classic Midweight Terry Full Zip Hoodie

Every brand says they make the best hoodie, but we found that Canada-based Reigning Champ actually holds that title.

Malin + Goetz

Essentials Skin Care Set

Every good-looking dude needs a proper skincare routine to keep their mug looking good. Malin + Goetz went ahead and did the curation for his skincare routine so he (and you) don’t need to worry about what’ll be populating his medicine cabinet.

Sunspel

Crewneck T-Shirt

No shade to a multi-pack of Hanes tees (believe us, we really do love those), but it’s hard to beat the appeal of one of the finest things to come out of Britain: these classic tees from Sunspel.

Plasticana

Gardana Clog

We’ve been on the Gardana clog bandwagon for a while now, and it’s because they’re as comfortable as they are freaky fresh.

Lululemon

ABC Classic-Fit 5 Pocket Pant

Every dude is obsessed with Lululemon’s ABC pants, and while you might not understand, he certainly will when he slips into them.

Abercrombie & Fitch

Oversized Boucle V-Neck Sweater

He’s been dying to get a sweater like the one Billy Crystal wears in When Harry Met Sally and unless he goes vintage, well, the closest thing he can get to it is this perfectly cropped V-neck from the good folks over at A&F.

Jaxxon

Mariner Chain

The sluttiest thing a man can do is throw a dainty chain over a white tee shirt and go outside looking like he usually does, except 10 times hotter.

Uniqlo

x JW Anderson Padded Quilted Blouson

It looks like a Barbour, fits like a Barbour, but doesn’t cost the same as a Barbour.

Vuori

Sunday Performance Jogger

Every dude’s happy with another pair of sweatpants in their dresser, and Vuori’s wildly soft joggers are going to be in his rotation for quite some time.

Nike

Pegasus 41 Road Running Shoes

The runner in your life needs a new pair of running shoes, we guarantee it, and with its super-comfy, propulsive foam, he’ll be soaring past the finish line like an Olympian.

CDLP

Boxer Briefs (3-Pack)

Underwear? As a gift? When it’s as sensual as CDLP’s, then hell yes. (Just maybe don’t slip this to any of your relatives).

For the style guy

If he’s constantly sending around his fits to his friends before he leaves the house, we’re happy to report that we’ve compiled a list of classics—or new takes on old favorites—that will assuredly get enthusiastic thumbs up from the gang.

Filson

Journeyman Rugged Twill Backpack

A rugged backpack that’s made for trekking into the great outdoors, not toting to class. Count on Filson’s signature waxed canvas to weather exceptionally well over time.

The Row

Slouchy Banana Two Leather-Trimmed Canvas Belt Bag

Somehow—or maybe not surprisingly—The Row made us interested in fanny packs again.

Todd Snyder

Nomad Cashmere Cardigan

He’s entering his grandpa era as we speak, even if he’s barely 30, so make sure that he’s got the luxe cardigan to meet the moment.

CRZM by Mociun

Yuba Mini Bracelet

An outfit can go from good to great when you add the right piece of gleaming jewelry, and let’s just say this soda pop top-esque bracelet is just what you need to level up your fits.

Smythson

2025 Chelsea Weekly Agenda in Panama

If he’s a little bit scatterbrained, he’ll appreciate a gift that’ll keep his thoughts organized so he doesn’t misremember where he was supposed to meet you for lunch.

Streets Ahead

Casey Belt

Add a bit of yee haw to his waistband.

Banana Republic

Ribber Merino Half-Zip Sweater

We bet he hasn’t seen the discourse over the quarter-zip sweater for men (this one, by the way, definitely occupies this category), but he will appreciate the cozy factor and immediate cool boost he’ll get when he throws this on.

Levi’s

1944 501 Original Fit Selvedge Jeans

True denimheads will know that Levi’s Vintage Clothing (not to be confused with actual vintage clothing from Levi’s) is the collection to shop for near exact replicas of hard-to-find jeans that would otherwise cost exponentially more than what LVC is charging.

Miansai

Test of Time Ring

What’s new to him is merely a future heirloom for generations to come. Don’t be surprised if people start asking if it’s an insignia of a family crest.

Percival

Bomber Jacket

The perfect bomber jacket might actually be vintage, but Percival’s take on the fall outerwear essential comes pretty damn close.

Tecovas

The Cartwright Cowboy Boot

Everyone seems to be cosplaying as a cowboy these days, so if you want him to fully look the part, then grab him a pair of Tecovas. We’re partial to the Cartwright style that have a shorter heel than typical Western stompers, but all the same cowboy swagger.

LE17SEPTEMBRE

Collar Polo

Long live the fuzzy long-sleeve polo.

Gucci

GG Marmont Card Case

When it comes to leather goods, calfskin leather is almost always the way to go. To help him pare down what he currently has in his overs-stuffed wallet, this luxury cardholder from Gucci will do the trick.

For the perfectly coiffed guy

His haircut’s always impeccable. His skin, glowing. His beard, trimmed. You know the guy, and he’s surely hoping to unwrap something new so he can add it to his already impressive grooming kit.

Braun

All-in-One Style Kit Series 9 9440

This all-in-one kit, with all the manscaping tools you could possibly need, has all the goods you need to keep your fade, shave, and nose hair situation immaculate.

Aesop

Complete Shaving Care

Blue foam and a disposable razor are no match for the absolute luxurious shave he’s about to give himself thanks to your generous gift.

Dyson

Supersonic Hair Dryer

Dr. Barbara Sturm

Everything Eye Patches

With these hydrating eye patches from one of the best grooming brands to do it, no one will ever know you didn’t get your proper eight hours last night.

Vuori

Sunday Element Jacket

This techy, moisture-wicking jacket from Vuori is all he’ll need for those glorious few weeks where it’s too hot for a coat and too cold for short sleeves. It’s also a great pick for the year-round feats of athleticism he’s always telling you about.

Yeti

Cocktail Shaker

Shaken, not stirred, just as Bond intended.

Snow Peak

Titanium Flask

This petite flask is all about discretion. It tucks away when it needs to be concealed, has a titanium body that won’t leach into your liqour, and seals up tight with a stylish wooden handle.

Peak Design

Travel Duffel

His carry-on situation is a bit of a mess, so help him get way more organized, courtesy of Peak Design’s well-thought-out duffel bag, which features pockets and storage for every little thing he needs.

Our top pick for LED face masks will help him address whatever skin issue—acne, wrinkles, dark spots—ails him, and few gifts are better than flawless skin.

For the home guy

Summer is meant for vacation, exploring, and backyard hangs—but if he finds joy in high-quality quiet comforts of his four walls, we say hurrah. These picks are meant to help up the comfort levels from squishy throwbeds and butter slip-ons to the perkiest coffee maker and eye-catching accessories.

Edie Parker

Butter Tabletop Lighter

Kitschy home decor will always have its place, especially when it doubles as a functional lighter.

Lamson

Ultimate 4-Piece Grill Tools

He calls himself a grillmaster, but if that were true, he’d already own a tool set like this from a brand that’s been doing this for over a century.

Beast

Mini Blender

If his monthly expenses include $500 for smoothies, then he needs an intervention—and this personal blender. Its super-fast motor makes light work out of ice and fruit, and you can drink straight out of the blending container. This gets bonus points for looking great on the counter, too.

Breville

InFizz Fusion Carbonation Machine

Bubbly guys like what they like, and with this new Breville sparkler, any beverage can have some pep in its step.

Houseplant

Ashtray Set by Seth

Made In

Stainless Clad Saute Pan

We’ve tested a lot of stainless steel cookware and Made In’s consistently leads the pack, so we’re sure your foodie of a man will love this absolute workhorse of a pan.

Session Goods

Bong

There’s nothing wrong with a good toke, but you have to make sure the stoner in your life isn’t using one of those gaudy bongs from the head shop where you can also buy Bob Marley-themed gear.

Breville

Oracle Jet Espresso Machine

The greatest gift you can give is caffeine (or any one of the options right here on this list), but maybe your giftee just can’t be bothered to brew his own joe. Breville’s latest espresso machine can make nearly every coffee-based beverage, all with the touch of a button.

Brooklinen

Super-Plush Robe

Nothing feels better than putting on a robe in a hotel, but none of those are as plush and comfy as Brooklinen’s. Plus, he doesn’t need to spend $500 a night to access one.

Cultiver

Linen Sheet Set With Pillowcases

When Elton sang that he wanted to be laid down on sheets of linen, we’re pretty sure these are the sheets he was referring to.

Nude Glass

Finesse Glassware

Glasses that are much finer than shooting, er, sipping from shot glasses.

For the sporty guy

His heart rate is up, his muscles are sore, his golf swing’s an ace, and those three-pointers? Yeah, he’s icing them. For the cherry on top, choose a gift that will suit his sporty pursuits—whatever they may be.

Therabody

Theragun Sense

He might joke and say you’re a pain in the neck, but we’re pretty sure he’s actually achey all over (because who isn’t?). This Theragun offers all the muscle-kneading love that Therabody’s known for, but it also offers guided breathwork for a more holistic approach to wellness.

Hoka

Clifton 9 Running Shoes

Every runner knows that Hoka makes a damn good pair of sneakers, and the Cliftons—now on its ninth iteration—are beloved for their cushy support and energy return.

Metalwood

Paneled Track Jacket

For the gadget guy

If his Amazon previous orders contain any combination of card cases, keyrings, cords, battery packs, or video games plucked from best sellers lists, you’ve got a gadget guy in mind. These gift ideas are just left of ordinary. Sure, you could opt for an XBox, but why not make him the controller with a Meta Quest? Sure, you could organize a movie night, but why not take that under the stars?

Sonos

Move 2 Bluetooth Speaker

Sonos is famous for its Wi-Fi-connected speakers, but don’t sleep on its excellent Bluetooth speakers. The Move 2 is the brand’s latest, with 24 hours of battery life, an IP56 waterproof rating, and drop resistance (for the clumsy men among us).

Dyson

V15 Detect Vacuum

Yes, he does want a vacuum as a gift. Chores just somehow suck less when your vacuum—in this case, Dyson’s V15—makes it feel like you’re playing a video game rather than being put to work.

Anker

MagSafe Compatible MagGo UFO 3-in-1 Charger

A helpful UFO not for beaming up, but charging up, three of your MVP devices at once. It packs up small for travel and has a streamlined setup that won’t take over your workspace.

Sony

WH-1000XM5 Wireless Noise Canceling Headphones

New headphones come and go, but this pair of cans from Sony is still one of the best, boasting superior audio, a stylish matte exterior, and 30 hours of playback time. (Oh, and there are plenty of deals bound to come through before the holidays.)
