Hi friends! Holiday gift guides are officially here! I know that many of you have blitzed through your holiday shopping, but for those of you who are still looking for the perfect gifts, I hope that these guides help to provide some fun ideas for every price point. I figured I’d start off the fun with my gift guide for guys! It’s SO hard to shop for men, so I rounded up some of the best gifts I’ve found online for that hard-to-shop-for dude. I always look forward to sharing gift guides each year – we all know how much I like online shopping – and I love the opportunity to get and share ideas with all of you. Please share any awesome guy gifts you’ve found in the comments section of the post!

For the fit dude:

The best wireless headphones.

This half-zip from Under Armour.

An Apple watch or Fitbit.

A lightweight tech tee.

For when it’s impossible to get him to wear “real clothes” because he loves athletic clothes so much.

APL sneakers.

Experience gifts:

Treat him to a massage appointment.

Book tickets to a sporting event or a comedian you know hell love.

Plan an entire surprise day date. Take him hiking and pack a little picnic (if its not freezing!), check out a new local brewery, try a wine tasting excursion, hit golf balls at the driving range, etc.

For the dad/uncle/anyone else on your list that’s tricky to shop for:

Quiet comfort headphones.

Jogger pajama pants.

A Bottle Breacher. I feel like I’ve given one of these to every guy in our family, and they’re always a huge hit.

A bluetooth speaker.

Grillfather apron

A funny shirt.

A couch bowl. This is genius for that late-night cereal snacker.

Just to spice up this year’s gift guides, I’ll be throwing occasional surprise giveaways featuring an item from the list. Leave a comment below, and a lucky winner will receive a half-zip from Under Armour to gift to a lucky guy. 🙂 I’ll announce the winners for this week’s gift guide giveaways next Monday.

For a bonus entry, leave a comment on my latest IG post.

    Couch bowls made me laugh, I’m like, that’s every bowl in my cupboard – ergonomically designed for eating from the couch! And, I’m uncertain if I’m gifting my husband or myself with the Himalayan salt block but I am certain it’s coming into my life! Gina, thanks for the great ideas!

  10. Nikki on December 3, 2018 at 8:13 am

  16. Nicole Kump on December 3, 2018 at 8:36 am

    My hubby is so hard to buy for. I used to try to be creative and surprise him, but now I just flat out ask him what he wants. It doesn’t feel quite as romantic, but at least he’ll like what he gets!

  17. Crystal on December 3, 2018 at 8:36 am

    Husband says he is easy to buy for but he usually buys everything he wants for himself.

  18. Kristin on December 3, 2018 at 8:41 am

    The couch bowl is defiantly a great idea!

  19. Kate McGinnis on December 3, 2018 at 8:54 am

    Love those UA half zips, perfect for any temp

  20. Jessie R on December 3, 2018 at 8:56 am

    Dads are the hardest to buy a gift for!!! Last year, my sister and I got our dad an electric smoker with Bluetooth… and we can’t top that this year and are stumped. He buys all the things he wants… Great ideas in this list!

  21. Deidra on December 3, 2018 at 9:09 am

    These are all great ideas! Love the half-zip!

  22. Beth Cecka on December 3, 2018 at 9:12 am

    These are some great ideas! The couch bowl is genius!

  23. kolya on December 3, 2018 at 9:14 am

    I wouldn’t mind a few of these things and I know my 3 guys would love them too plus I think they might just share!

  24. Leah H. on December 3, 2018 at 9:24 am

    My husband is seriously the hardest person to shop for! I have gotten him wireless headphones, a bluetooth speaker, and noise cancellation headphones in the past and he LOVED them! Great suggestions!

  25. Alaina on December 3, 2018 at 9:37 am
