gift guide part 6: for him

173 wsonoma

people seemed to want some ideas for guys so i called in my better half for some help. ac helped me and we pulled together some ideas that he thought guys might actually like. it’s just a jumping off point but be sure to check josh spear‘s site, coolhunting and uncrate for some more great ideas- they’re my go-to site for guys. also, i decided to pitch the splurge section because i figured we had over 100 ideas and that might well be enough. so happy gift hunting and happy thanksgiving!

i bought one of those global knives for my man for his birthday after he ruined his $5 ikea knives by using them to saw apart fibreglass tent poles.

they’re great quality! awesome suggestion. (and no, he’s not allowed to use the new one for sawing!)

Great gift ideas for us guys! Love the jimy wallet. Is it plastic? It looks amazing.

I bought one of those JIMI wallets for myself last year and it’s GREAT… there’s a money clip that slides out and it’s really durable (despite it being made of plastic) – the best thing about it for me is its translucency – so the logo on my business card shows through the front!

The tie is wild. Sick. But wild. I think I’ll get one for my dad.

With regards to cuff links, another suggestion would be Hot & Cold taps/faucet cufflinks. The design is of the old style tap and say “hot” and “cold”. Not sure what I mean? Pop here to see (no, this is not an affiliate or other type of revenue generating link for me).
