50 Gift Ideas: Things To Ask for This Christmas 2024

It’s often thought that a watch is one of the few pieces of sparkly jewellery that men are allowed to actively seek out what they want when deciding what to ask for for Christmas. The problem? The generally hefty price tags that come attached to bling. Can’t afford a Swiss-made watch? That’s alright, you ain’t paying.

The trick to bossing the winter months as a style-conscious gentleman is to keep warm while looking good. Not as easy as it sounds – wearing a hat, of course, is an art form in itself – but you’ll manage it with any of this quality headgear.

Tropicfeel is a safe haven for worried buyers, as we all know gearheads can be some of the most nerve-wracking people to buy for. However, anyone with a love for outdoor garments will appreciate the tech and versatility of the NS40 Jacket.

Made with 100% polyester these layers are waterproof, windproof, and extremely lightweight so they won’t take up much space in your pack. Ideal for the traveler and adventurer alike.

Not all Razors are created equal but you can find some that are sharp in more ways than one. This year, make sure you ask for one that’s both useful and aesthetically pleasing as it’s likely the grooming gear that’s most in-use – and thus most-seen laying about.

Odds are, you’re still using the same belt for every pair of your pants. Do yourself a favor and put new belts on your wish list. You need at least one brown belt and one black belt to avoid looking like a walking fashion faux pas.

Whether you’re hopping on flight after flight or just trying to make the most of your commute to work, a travel backpack for your laptop and other important necessities is, well, a necessity. And we aren’t talking about the backpack you brought to school every year. Time to get something professional, sleek, and stylish.

If there’s one thing every man needs more of, it’s basics. Washed a red sock with your white T-shirt? Ruined. Coffee spill in transit? In the bin. Sweat stains? Out. We’d suggest requesting a pack of six or more.

What is Christmas other than an opportunity to get a new pair of sneakers all bought and paid for? And we all know that unbeatable feeling of strutting around the house wearing a box fresh pair and brand new duds on Christmas Day. Try these classic designs or opt for a sleek new style from a brand like Oliver Cabell.

Not just a myth; well-made dress socks make getting up when it’s still dark out that much easier (on your cold feet, at least). Wool-cotton styles wear better and keep your feet warmer. Add a splash of color under your suit trousers for a little added personality, or pick out a cheeky pair for a funny gift.

Sunglasses in winter might signal to others that you’re a bit of a tool. But getting this holiday expense out of the way early is a good way of keeping more cash in the kitty for when you’re eventually poolside. Until then, they can be used to ease the inevitable New Year’s hangover.

Male jewelry has really taken off over the past few years, with more men turning to necklaces, bracelets and earrings to add a personal touch to their style. If you want to get involved, be specific with what to ask for for Christmas – perhaps send over a couple of links so people know what styles you like.

 

Don’t walk around on cold floors anymore. Instead, embrace the comfort that a sturdy pair of house mocassins or slippers can give you.

Not only will it encourage you not to wear your outdoor shoes inside (and help keep your floors cleaner), but it will keep your toes warm when the colder months enter the chat.

You can never have too much athleisure in your wardrobe. Perfect for running errands, working out, going on a casual stroll, resting at home, and even for more laid-back hangouts, a solid pair of joggers will keep you both comfy and stylish. Get pairs in different colors and fabrics, and you’ll be set.

Nowadays, you should own pieces of denim that don’t look like you bought them in high school. To upgrade your staple wardrobe you should definitely look into quality pieces of denim.

Something like dark-wash raw denim can take you from the office to date night seamlessly (aka the gift that keeps on giving). What more could you want in a Christmas gift?

 

Have you updated your cellphone case yet? Do you even have a cellphone case? Treat yourself and protect your phone at the same time. Whether you want just some simple solid colors or a case with pockets for your cards or pictures, there is a case for you.

Trust us, it’s not manly to have a cold neck. This Christmas, ask your loved ones for a super soft and warm scarf to help you get through the winter months. Also, it really pulls together a winter outfit.

A chunky fisherman’s jumper or merino wool roll neck is never a bad idea. Ideal for layering or just wearing around the house on a cold winter’s day, good quality knitwear should make up a large portion of your winter wardrobe, so why not add to it this Christmas?

It’s nice to spice up your nighttime wear with a bougie pajama set. Whether it’s satin or flannel, looking put together for bed adds maturity to your look. Also, it gets boring just wearing a T-shirt and boxers.

On top of making sure you have big-boy sheets and bedding, you should also ensure that you have a big-boy towel set. When your hand towels match your body towel, you know you’ve truly made it in life – or are at least ready to fake it!

The nectar of the gods. The fuel that keeps on giving. Whatever coffee is to you, asking for a few bags of your favorite coffee beans — or even a coffee subscription — will have you waking up energized (literally) on Christmas morning. It also doubles as the perfect last minute gift idea for anyone you may have forgotten.

Still choosing between two extremes of lighting: pitch black and operating theatre? Switch your family on to sorting you out with a stylish lamp, and learn the art of hygge, candlelight, pillows and throws while you’re at it. You won’t regret it.

Dark winter mornings make it even harder to crowbar yourself out from under the duvet. A wake-up light alarm clock mimics a real sunrise to coax your body into getting up and at ‘em while others are simply obnoxiously loud but get the job done.

Although you can get away with any old pair of earbuds, why would you? Invest in a high-quality pair and they will elevate your music to a whole new level of audio, proving useful long after you use them to drown out the in-laws over Christmas dinner.

Here’s a shocker: men have feelings too. Even if you don’t want to use a journal as a diary, they can help keep track of your thoughts and ideas; from money-making to incriminating. In either case, always burn once full.

Nowadays, life is just so stressful. From hunching over your computer for 8 hours a day (or more) to running around making sure your life doesn’t completely derail, you definitely need to relieve some tension. Ask for some bliss from the comfort of your own couch with a neck massager.

Whether your Gordon Ramsey or not, you need a grown-up knife set for chopping veggies, fruits, and more. You can’t rely on your blunt knives anymore; instead, know the satisfaction that comes with clean and crisp cuts.

Feeling anxious? Tap into the healing energy of a weighted blanket, and enjoy the benefits of having less stress and a better night’s sleep. It might take some getting used to but feeling the weight slowly pushing down on you will be worth it.

Chicken wings? Set. French fries? Set. Literally any food you can ask for? Check. Everyone made fun of air fryers at first, but you can become a culinary genius with this countertop gadget. Gameday will never be the same.

From the shower to the beach, a portable speaker will allow you to narrate your life through song. Also, just think about the holiday cheer you can spread on Christmas morning by playing Christmas carols over the new speaker!

Instead of going out every weekend and blowing through all your hard-earned money, have someone else invest in a bartender kit for you. Learn how to create your favorite cocktails from your kitchen, and become the speakeasy you were meant to be.
