Guys are quite hard to buy for.  You can always go the clothing route (more collared shirts and boxers, yay!) or the video game route (Call of Duty:Urban Warfare, yay!) OR you can try your darndest to get something rather clever for him that he wouldn’t ever think he needed or wanted. I hope these few ideas perk up your imagination when buying for the men in your lives!

You can design a custom pair of Chuck Taylors on the Converse website for your hipper than hip fella. Pretty cool.

Another way to create a custom gift is by logging onto the Blank Label site and create a dress shirt made specifically for your guy! Pick collar style, fabric and many other fun details- all for less than $100!

For the guy who likes a stiff cocktail, why not put together a bottle of whisky (I’m obsessed with this Dalmore bottle and packaging) and these whisky stones?  Gives a new, literal meaning to the phrase “on the rocks”. (P.S.-Am I the only person who thought whisky had an “e” in it?)

Have a pair of cuff links made from a map of someplace that means something to him by Chart Metalworks– a very thoughtful and unique gift.

For the guy who’s always fixing things and being handy, this MagWear wristband uses magnets to keep all sorts of nails, screws, etc. in a very handy place (as in not in between the teeth) :)

For the music snob, the “1,000 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die” book, a great pair of headphones and this hilarious mouse pad!

Got an eco-minded guy who needs a little help getting his act together? This gift set is great!

Got a guy who LOVES to sing- but perhaps only in the privacy of his own home- this iKaraoke gadget cracked me up!

Perhaps your dad gets frustrated with the three remotes it takes to watch a DVD? Get him this touch screen all in one remote to make things easier (after YOU program it, of course).

I think this is the perfect guy sweater for winter! And I love a guy in a plaid shirt, Gap has some really great looking ones.

Creed’s Green Irish Tweed is the best smelling mens cologne I’ve ever come across (pricey, but worth it!)

Got a foodie on your hands? Try this cheese sampler from the DELICIOUS Cowgirl Creamery in California!

For your little brother- arm him with this book “How To Carve A Turkey and 99 Other Skills Every Man Should Know”. Ok, maybe your little brother isn’t the only one who needs this….

Coming at you tomorrow and Wednesday, the final two guides- FOR HER and FOR HOME!
