Growing up, my dad was the hardest person to by gifts for. He was a humble man who never really wanted anything from us, but always showed gratitude for whatever strange pittance we mustered up that year. One year, I got him a screwdriver. I still get a smile when I see it in his tool box, sitting midst half a dozen others of the same heading.

But what if we could actually get the men in our lives something they not only appreciated, but enjoyed? Things that perhaps they didn’t even know they wanted or needed? Well, I have compiled a list of items that would be perfect for your father, husband, boyfriend, brother, or friend. Follow the included links for exclusive deals available this Black Friday season, now until Cyber-Monday!

The Mission Belt – The Mission Belt is my #1 recommended gift for men of class.

I first became aware of this product four or five years ago, and eventually began selling them for the store I worked for at the time. I bought one for myself and even though I know own half a dozen Mission Belts, I still wear that very first one several times a week. That fall I bought one for my dad’s birthday. He couldn’t stop talking about it to my mom. My mom told her brother who came in and purchased one. Their father, my grandpa, commented on it and later that same uncle came and bought him some belts for Christmas. That was three years ago, and we all still wear and love our Mission Belts.

What makes them so fantastic is the ratchet system on the back. Its revolutionary design makes loosening your belt after Thanksgiving or Christmas Day dinner 10x more stealthy and you’re able to re-tuck your shirt in less conspicuously. No more struggling with belt holes. It’s easy release trigger makes the Mission Belt the most convenient belt on the marketplace. With cut-to-size straps and interchangeable buckles, they are also fully customizable. Unlock your 30% discount at Mission Belts here.

Fulton & Roark Solid Cologne – One of my favorite moments in menswear is when I am checking out a customer at the counter and while the husband or boyfriend is distracted, the woman takes a look at the display of cologne and sneaks one across the counter to me for me to ring up. I then have to find a clandestine way to get it back to her without the man noticing (usually by wrapping it in the receipt).

These solid fragrances make excellent stocking stuffers. They are perfect for traveling or for keeping in your office drawer for a mid-day touch up. Made of condense fragrance, these colognes follow the rule of “less is more” because less is needed. Only a small dab is enough for several hours of your favorite scent. Ranging from the woodsy Lost Man and Blue Ridge to the fresh citrus of Ramble or Kiawah and finally to the musky Matia or mysterious 226 Club there are scents for every man and his woman to love.

Secrid Wallets – The RFID protected card holder is another amazing gift. Everyone loves the easy access and sleek design. The easy release trigger helps to find and locate your cards 10x easier. It’s so fun to see the looks on cash register’s faces when you whip it out and pop the cards out like a magician! Choose from several different designs and models!

Socks – What better item to stuff the stockings with than mini-stockings? Check out these patterns of Stacy Adams and Stance socks. I am always short on socks, but I have come to rely on Stacy Adams as my favorite brand for styled socks. Stance on the other hand, is probably the most comfortable dress sock I have had the privilege of wearing.

Bruno Piatelli Silk Ties – No man can ever have enough ties. Correction: no man can ever have enough quality ties, and Bruno Piatelli is among the best. Most men have a wide assortment of ties, most of which are old, out of style, or just out-right ugly. Help your man cycle out his filler ties by gifting him one or two of these stylish ties.

Stacy Adams Shoes – Naturally, you will need to know the man’s shoe size before ordering these, but if you know him well enough to know his shoe size, then you know he’ll love this chic new styles from Stacy Adams. Currently 10% off at The Kater Shop, but use my link to add another 10% off the cart! I purchased my first pair of Stacy Adams about six months ago and I immediately loved them for the memory foam insole and the incredible style and design.

Marquis Colored Dress Shirts – Whether your man is a desk-jockey or presents before board meetings, a colored shirt is always the quickest and easiest way to up their style-game. You can find brands such as Marquis, Platino, and CON-Struct at The Kater Shop. My favorite is a nice steel blue.

Tie Bars – Another great stocking stuffer is tie bars. They’re small, they’re cheap, they’re versatile, they’re highly functional. No man likes his tie swinging down into his dinner or lunch, and an unsecured tie only makes the man’s battle against nature on windy or snowy days that much harder. My coworkers know there will never be a day I walk into work without one.

Christmas Ties – When all else fails and you have nothing else to bring to your white-elephant Christmas party, look no further than these festive ties! There are a wide assortment available at The Kater Shop.

Whether you’re looking for gifts for your closest loved ones, or the neighbor down the street, these gift ideas will never miss! Good luck in your Holiday gift gatherings this season!
