2017 Holiday Gift Guide: For Him.
Back with all of my favorite picks for guys in 2017! With a lot of help and suggestions from Eddie, these are a lot of the things that we both love! And for more ideas, check out last year’s gift guide for him!
HowSweetEats 2017 Holiday Gift Guide for Him:
Jack Black Turbo Wash. We have a huge one of these in our shower and I’ll even use it occasionally. Love that it has a pump but also love what it does, how it smells and how relaxing it is. This size lasts FOREVER.
Adidas Ultra Boost Sneakers. These are the men’s version of my FAVORITE shoes ever. If you check my monthly favorites, then you know that I’ve raved about these all year. They are by far the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn. I adore them.
HyperIce Vyper Foam Roller. This is the mac daddy of foam rollers! Apparently gone are the days when you could grab an $8 one at Target… ha. But Eddie uses ours pretty often after runs so this seems like it would be worth it.
Shinola Runwell Watch. Last year I also put a Shinola watch in my gift guide, per Eddie’s recommendation and I had to consult him again because he pretty much collects watches and is obsessed. One of his favorite brands is still Shinola, but I picked this one specifically because I love the rose gold!
KitchenAid Cold Brew Maker. In my opinion KitchenAid can do no wrong when it comes to appliances big and small. Even though Eddie doesn’t like coffee, if you have someone who does, I think this is the one to get. It’s SO sharp. It’s the best looking one I’ve seen and I love how it can fit in the fridge.
Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille. This is a bit higher end than the other colognes I’ve had in gift guides past, but that’s because there are only two scents that I adore on Eddie: Burberry Touch and Viktor and Rolf Spicebomb. I love them both so much. This Tom Ford one is completely different – so smoky and woodsy and wintery (I actually have a body spray of it because it’s unisex) and the only other thing I’d want to smell on him. It’s definitely a splurge.
Beats Pill Speaker. I KNOW. This has been in my gift guides for three or four straight years but it remains our favorite portable speaker. We both have one, they last forever and we take them everywhere. Eddie uses them outside constantly when he grills or does yard work. I use mine constantly in the kitchen. Obsessed!
Kiehl’s Body Scrub Soap. This is one of the things I put in Eddie’s stocking last year and he loovvvved it. I always get him a few higher end skin care items and this soap was a huge hit.
Raden Charging Wheeled Carry On. We are obsessed with any spinning luggage to begin with, but this one that has the USB ports for charging?! NEED.
Sugarfina Bourbon Bears. I’m a sugarfina freak and love buying a few boxes of these at the holidays. These bourbon bears that are covered in chocolate?! Definitely getting them and wrapping them up!
Desktop golf. Eddie doesn’t love golf but my brother does, and I think this is such a fun, quirky gift. Definitely something you wouldn’t buy yourself.
Scratch Map. This is the first year I have seen this concept and I absolutely love it! You can scratch off the places that you travel too, which I think is so super fun.
Hydroflask Water Bottle. We are all about the sport cap top in this house. We drink out of them 24/7. And I’ve never found one of the stainless water bottles with a sport cap top, so we are alllll over this.
Artifact Uprising Brass Easel and Calendar. This has been an item I’ve gift someone nearly every single year since Artifact began. I love this for Eddie, because it allows him to have a bunch more pictures up at work than he normally would since they are on the calendar.
Case Logic Laptop and Camera Backpack. This is the backpack we travel with every single trip and we’ve done so for years now. It can easily hold a DSLR and multiple lenses, a large laptop and maybe even a smaller one, a kindle, iPad, etc and all of the charging equipment. We can attach a tripod to it too. It keeps everything safe and protected. Plus, with kids, using a backpack is a MUST for us so we’re hands free.
Canada Goose Down Gloves. I always like to get Eddie a pair of super nice, warm gloves every few years. He inevitably ends up losing others since we live in such cold weather and they are something he’d never buy himself. Going for these ones this year!
Ugg Chukka Sneakers. Absolutely in love with these for the whole sneaker feel. I think they are so super cool. Hoping I can convince Eddie of the same.
Meat by Pat LaFrieda. Since this is pretty much Eddie’s dream cookbook, it had to be included.
DJI Mavic Pro Drone. This is a repeat favorite because it’s something that we use constantly. We take it on every trip (have even flown with it) and Eddie adores it. I don’t even use the photos so much for blogging – we get a lot of cool photos of us as a family or of scenery- it’s just so cool! Aside from his iPhone, he uses this more than any other camera we have.

have you looked into the away suitcases? (https://www.awaytravel.com/) they’re so freakin’ stylish and also have the charging pack, and made by a super cool company. i have a carry-on size in “sand” color and it’s so chic i can’t stand it.
Did you know they make a PETOSKEY STONE Shinola watch now ?!?

I’m not a very creative person at all and I always check out male gift guides and this was SO HELPFUL! Thank you!
I’m totally getting my husband the cold brew maker and the bourbon bears. Done and done! Thank you! And congrats on your gorgeous new babe!
Just bought the Jack Black Allover Wash from the Sephora sale for my husband for Christmas. He prefers this one over the Turbo Wash. Also got him the Jack Black Turbo body bar…looks similar to your Kiehl’s pick. I bought the Kitchen Aid cold brewer in September. There was a rebate offered that brought the price down so I went for it. It’s not like it was something I needed, lol. It is very nice looking that’s for sure! It works nicely with a coarser grind coffee. I haven’t experimented too much with it tho since it’s fall & I prefer hot coffee.

Great gift guides! I look forward to them every year. I just have to say, that Burberry Touch is the BEST men’s cologne, EVER!!! I mean, at least top 3. EVER. It’s SO sensual and masculine and still a little sweet.. ugh. I need to go sniff my husband’s bottle of it now. Great picks!

Thank you for this awesome gift guide. The cold brew coffee maker is JUST what I was looking to buy for my husband. He is an iced coffee addict – so this is perfect!
