Trying to find the right gift can be challenging when you’re not shopping for yourself. One group that often leaves women stumped is how to shop for the men in your life, whether it be a boyfriend, husband, brother, or even dad. This is perfectly understandable as we all know that men and women are different, so sometimes it’s hard to tell what the other gender likes. So to help give you some ideas on what might be the right gift for the men in your life, we’ve selected several good ideas that might just be the right gift idea you’re looking for.

light

First is the Kindle. The Kindle is a wireless reading device that can charge hundreds of books, magazines, and newspapers. This one works great for those who like to read and is perfect for those who travel. This lightweight device is much more practical and comfortable to carry than carrying a stack of books. In addition, it has a service that allows you to get books immediately loaded on the device, regardless of location. This service is a nice little feature that can help people save extra time.

Rubik’s Cube Tactile

Rubik’s Touchcube is another option that will be popular with people of all ages. Almost everyone is familiar with the original version, so there will already be a fair amount of curiosity regarding this one. They will be impressed to see that it has been upgraded with a touch screen that allows you to make movements by simply sliding your finger across it. This one also has a few other features that the original doesn’t like sound effects, an option to show you the next move to make, and even an option that will complete the touch Rubik’s cube for you. Not to mention, this one also looks great even while charging. We bet this will be a popular choice this fall.

Tickets for Sporting Events

As most women will already know, many men are addicted to sports. This is one of the reasons why getting sporting event tickets can be a great gift idea. Since gift-giving will take place around Christmas, popular options could include college football bowl tickets, Pro Bowl tickets, NBA floor seat tickets, hockey tickets, etc. Ideally, you choose the sport that you like the most. Even if it’s a bit out of season like for football or baseball, you should still get the tickets you’d like to see and watch the game. Your enjoyment of the tickets may be a bit delayed, but I’m sure you’ll appreciate the gesture and be looking forward to that date.

Tools and Hobbies

Some stereotypes are there for a reason. One is that many guys really enjoy certain hobbies and tools. This is very true, especially for the older generation. A great new set of tools or drill can be a perfect gift for dad or those who are handy. Also, giving them gifts in their hobby can also be great because it shows that you are aware of what they like. So if they like to ride their bikes, a new bike or other equipment can work very well. The key is to find something they like and try to avoid being too micro in the buying decision to ensure they are more likely to use and enjoy it. An easy way to find out what they like is to ask them about their current team and what they would like to have and why. This is a pretty innocent way to find out what’s on your wish list.

Using these options above, you would have a solid group of Christmas gifts for men. However, don’t think for a minute that these are the only good ones.
