HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE FOR MEN 2020

(No, Daniel is not getting a boat or a jet ski and this photo is from 6 months ago and completely unrelated but more fun than noise cancelling headphones or a self heating coffee mug so here it is.)

By request! Perhaps the hardest to shop for gifting category of them all. With gifts, I think the best ones are always the most personal, unique, well thought out ones. But sometimes you just need a little inspiration. Here is a start:

Minimalist leather wallet. It’s under $13, real leather, and Daniel has carried it for a year and loves it. Daniel has black because it was 9.99 and he is as cheap as they come :) but I also like the brown and “yellow” (camel colored) leathers.

KiwiCo Eureka Crate. Yes, the same crates we love for kids also make an adult line! When Daniel was a child, his parents used to take him thrifting for electronics so he could buy something just to take it apart into all the little pieces. He loves figuring out how things work, and also building. This line has monthly kits delivered for projects to make, cool things like a real desk lamp, or guitar. If you also have a guy who loves to build stuff, this could be really fun. $10 off here.

Scooter. Daniel really loves his. In pre-corona days when he worked downtown, he would scooter around when he needed to get places. Would be such a great dad/child gift to get one for each! $10 off here.

Similar: E-Bike, E-scooter.

A matte black insulated tumbler. Klean Kanteen makes a lot that we love. Yeti also has high quality ones here and here.

Storyville Coffee Subscription. Daniel’s local favorite and on major sale right now. Fun to get a fresh bag of well roasted beans in the mail.

Noise Cancelling Headphones. For the WFH life with small children. These are the ones Daniel likes and the 21k+ reviews are good.

Sonos WiFI speaker. We don’t have, but heard good things.

Ember Mug. To go with the coffee subscription. Another miracle with small children around: drinking your coffee hot. Haven’t tried but heard good things.

If you have a golfer. A round at a favorite or new course, or this golf grip. I know nothing about golf but Daniel says this is good for putting.
