Clockwise from top left
Nike Hyper Dry Fit Training Hoodie – A casual pullover that’s great for actually working out, or for wearing as casual athleisure attire. Doug wants me to be sure to note that the black color option is the way to go. These aren’t pictured above, but if you’re looking for something to pair this pullover with, consider these jogger pants which are also perfect for working out or lounging in.
The North Face Etip Grip Gloves – According to Doug, these gloves were one of his most-used gifts of 2017. Practical, warm, and who doesn’t need an extra pair?! This pair is also a nice design.
Classic Suede Moccasin Slippers – Stylish, casual, cool. Three words that describe these shoes AND the guy you’re buying for.
Plaid Flannel Sport Shirt – A classic option that is a safe bet for any man in your life! These shirts are great because they’re easy to layer, and are fool proof for styling.
Herschel Supply Little America Backpack – Have an adventure lover in your life? This is the gift for him! The backpack is very on trend, has the perfect amount of ruggedness, and has many compartments, making it great for the active traveler.
New York Times Explorer Coffee Table Book – A great coffee table book that features exotic places and amazing photography.
Slim Fit Henley Shirt – A guy can never have too many! This shirt is definitely one of Doug’s go-to’s. They’re nice because they can be worn year round! The one features comes in lots of great color options, including navy (as pictured), maroon and black.
Patagonia Pull Over – Another can’t-lose gift. I can’t tell you how much Doug wears his Patagonia pullover in the colder months. Probably every day, no joke. Fleece is having a comeback moment right now, so if you’re looking to be on trend go with that option. But this sweater knit and this one too, are great options!
“Second Skin” Boxer Briefs – I just liked this photo. (HA! Kidding.) Doug tells me that these briefs are very comfortable and high quality, and specifically noted that these are ideal options because the fabric doesn’t get bulky under clothing.
Kiehl’s Grab And Go Essentials Kit – A guy can never have enough! Doug noted that these products are some of this favorites to use. He also noted this is the type of gift he’d never actually seek out himself but appreciates when someone gets it for him because he actually uses it all. Things to consider! This would also make a great stocking stuffer for the men in your life.
Tie Bar Style Box – I mean…what a great idea. A style box, perfect for someone living the corporate life, that includes sox, ties and pocket squares. I featured the blue-themed box because it was Doug’s favorite, but he also really liked the green and red versions.
Herschel Supply Duffel Bag – Grab this and go! Doug noted this is ideal for weekend travel or even packing up to go work out. With how versatile this is, it’s a no brainer that any guy will find useful!
Tan Sandals – Okay, I thought Doug was crazy for picking this, but then his explanation made sense. He’s the type of guy that (literally) never shops for himself. So he relies on gift-giving holidays (and me, ha!) for his yearly wardrobe picks. Apparently he received flip flops one year, and they’re still in his closet as one of his most-worn gifts ever. Makes sense! These flip flops are the ones he has — they’re leather, durable, and he loves how comfortable they are. Another great stocking stuffer idea!
FitBit – While wearing it, this gadget calculates your steps taken throughout the day, heart rate, and calories burned. Neither Doug or I have one of these, but my Dad does, and we’ve both been wanting one after watching how much he uses it.
Dads Are The Original Hipsters Book – What a fun book! I flipped through it and it made me laugh out loud. Literally anyone would love this.
Bose Soundlink Bluetooth Mini Speaker – Whenever we go anywhere we ask, “Did you grab the speaker?” Our Bose mini speaker is honestly one of the most-used accessories that we own! This one is a mini version, perfect for throwing into a bag or even just to have as an extra in the home!
