Cool Valentine’s Day Gifts for Him

Yes, the pressure of Valentine’s gift-giving typically falls on men. They’re the ones expected to come up with flowers, jewelry, or something equally special. Of course, you’ll want them to feel their effort is not just appreciated, but properly reciprocated. Here are some nice gifts the man in your life should enjoy receiving.

Yeti Rambler Mug

As unromantic as a mug may be, there’s not a single man who won’t appreciate the over-engineered glory that is Yeti’s Rambler line. Sure, it’s a mug, but it’s one cut in rugged 18/8 stainless steel in a Duracoat finish, with double-wall vacuum-insulated construction to keep his coffee hot for hours on end. That insulation, along with the 14oz size, makes it equally perfect for both his morning coffee and his evening nightcap, too, so this will be one gift every man is going to put to good use.

Kizara Wood Sheet Memo Pad

For the man who keeps a stash of pens and stationery on hand, a memo pad isn’t exactly the most exciting gift. Unless, of course, that memo pad is made by shaving thin sheets of paper from a single block of wood, so the original grain is still intact. It’s absolutely gorgeous and masculine at the same time. Seriously, when was the last time you can put those two adjectives together to describe a single thing?

Organic Workshop Apron

We know plenty of men who cook. Few of them actually bothers to wear an apron (unless it’s a joke apron). Maybe, it’s time you made that kitchen wizard in your life use one. This apron’s particularly man-friendly, with its earthy color, tough canvas weave, and four large pockets, allowing him to carry a whole load of cooking gear around, from scissors and knives to tongs and ladles to everything in between.

Db The CIA

Yes, it looks like the kind of bag a spy will carry during an operation. You know, the place where he keeps the guns, gold, and gadgets he will need to survive a dicey situation on enemy ground. Your man will probably love it just for that alone. Throw in the fact that this is a structured camera bag with customizable dividers and you’ve got one of the most attractive backpacks for carrying sensitive gear.

GrowlerWerks uKeg

For the man who likes his craft beer, this mini-keg should provide a better container for every batch he orders, keeping his suds fresh and carbonated for weeks on end, while a double-wall insulation should keep it cold for extended periods.

Upgrade his workspace with this beautiful desk cover, which combines premium vegetable-tanned American leather on top with natural cork at the bottom.

Missoni Home Rex Hooded Bathrobe

Most bathrobes are designed to keep you dry, comfortable, and reasonably warm. So is this one. Unlike them, however, this hooded robe’s cotton terry velour fabric with 3D chevron motif makes it look like a fancy robe fit for royalty. Seriously, it’s the bathrobe equivalent of those flamboyant professional wrestling robes people like Gorgeous George and Nature Boy draped around their bodies back in the day.
