Holiday Gift Guide for Him
It’s a new week, and I am back again with my final gift guide of 2021 for the holiday season for you — my holiday gift guide for him! Like I mentioned in my previous blog post, my Holiday Gift Guide for Her, the blog may be titled “for him”, but there are no rules — shop for whoever you want, as long as they love it, that’s what matters most!
This year, I decided to recruit the help of my fiancé to find out, what do guys really want this holiday season? Have I been totally off the last couple of years, or was I doing okay this whole time? He helped me put together a stellar list of items for this gift guide, so let’s jump right into it!
01. Beer Glasses & Bottle Opener Set | 02. Gerber Multi-Tool | 03. Dune | 04. Lodge Cast Iron Pan | 05. Duer Pants | 06. Maison Margelia Cologne | 07. Metroid Dread | 08. Moleskin Notebook | 09. LAMY Fountain Pen | 10. Garmin Smart Watch | 11. OrbitKey | 12. Roots Leather Wallet | 13. AeroPress
Is there a more perfect gift for someone who loves beer than beautiful new beer glasses and a bottle opener? (The answer is no). Pair this with a six-pack of their favourite local beer with this set, and you’ll have the perfect holiday gift!
A multi-tool is an item that just about everyone should have, at least, according to my partner! This is a great gift to get just about anyone as it’s small enough to be kept anywhere and used in a pinch. This makes for a very practical holiday gift that will get tons of use.
Shopping for a book worm with a special interest in sci-fi? If they don’t already have it, pick up a copy of Dune by Frank Herbert this holiday season. This book recently got made into a movie too!
Boy, when I say that my partner loves his cast iron pans, I quite literally mean he loves them! If you’re shopping for someone who loves to cook, check out the Lodge cast iron collection.
5. DUER PANTS
When I asked my partner about what he’d put on a holiday gift guide for him, the first words out of his mouth were the Duer pants, particularly the Live Free Adventure style! You’ll notice it’s even his top pick!
There might be nothing better than when someone smells great, right? If you’re looking to spend a bit more this season, check out the Maison Margelia Replica collection for a new cologne! (Jon uses Jazz Club and it smells incredible.)

Though I’m the first to admit, I’m not exactly a gamer (my definition of gaming includes Animal Crossing and The Sims 4) Metroid Dread is a great option if you’re shopping for someone who is a gamer! Just make sure they don’t have it already.
If you’re buying for someone who is often taking notes, whether it be for work, or generally likes to keep a notebook on hand at all times, a Moleskin notebook is the way to go! Moleskin’s products are high-quality, and can easily be paired with the next item on the list for a set!
What would a great notebook be without an equally great pen? If you want to get a great combination gift, go for the above mentioned Moleskin notebook with a beautiful LAMY fountain pen (just don’t forget to get more ink!).

If you find yourself shopping for someone who loves tech, but can be a little rough on their products, check out the Garmin smart watch! The Garmin smart watches are more durable than a regular smart watch & works with both iOS and Android software. Though some are quite pricey, there are models for any budget.
11. ORBITKEY
Though at face value, the idea of a keychain might seem like a simple gift, the OrbitKey is anything but! This keychain can hold up to 7 keys, keep them compact (that means no more jingling in your pockets), and keeps them organized!

You truly can’t go wrong with gifting a beautiful new wallet for the holiday season, especially if it’s from the iconic Canadian company, Roots! Though there’s tons of options for sizes and colour, this slim card case leather wallet is a great option for anyone.
13. AEROPRESS
With many people returning to the office, but COVID restrictions still in place, you might be finding yourself having to come up with a different plan for your daily coffee. In comes the AeroPress coffee maker! It’s portable, lightweight & makes a stellar cup of coffee whenever you need it.
And there it is! My 2021 Holiday Gift Guide for Him! I can’t wait to share more holiday content in the coming weeks, but this is all for the gift guides this year! Before you go, don’t forget to read my Canadian Small Shop Holiday Gift Guide and my Holiday Gift Guide for Her if you haven’t already!
