Whether it’s your dad, distant uncle who you haven’t seen in a decade, or a new S.O. you’ve only been seeing for a couple of months, I personally believe that males are far trickier to shop for compared to their female counterparts. Sure, you can opt for one of the guy-gifting gold standards like a pricey bottle of hard alcohol, a warm pair of socks, or the latest Apple accessory, but these options are a bit generic. Plus, there’s a good chance someone else will have already gifted him with the same exact thing.
Of course, you don’t always want to get too particular either—trying to do the guesswork to figure out what type of video game he’s into at the moment or what size slacks he’s currently wearing is also a bit of a gamble. And while most retailers offer generous return windows and discreet gift receipts these days, the goal is to avoid that scenario in the first place, right? Gift cards and gifts you can send online are a safe bet but, come on, they’re boring and can often times read as unthoughtful—which is never the goal with gift-giving in my humble opinion. Fortunately, if you’re at a loss this year as to what to buy that certain male in your life—even if it’s your socially awkward boss—we’ve rounded up a few solid options that will surely earn his seal of approval this holiday season.

Meridian The Maintenance Package
Shaving kits are a dime a dozen — unless it’s this one from Meridian, featuring all the necessary grooming tools for keeping things tidy below the belt. That includes a waterproof trimmer, two backup blades and an anti-chafing spray for an unexpected gift that’ll benefit not only him but also his romantic partner (i.e. you).

Okay, I know this seems random, but a lot of men shave in the shower and it’s hard to see with a regular mirror. I’ve given this exact model to my stepdad, dad, grandfather, and ex-boyfriend, and all of them have reported back that it’s been a game-changer for their morning routine.
