79 Best Gifts for Men That’ll Impress Any Guy

Our editor-approved gifts that will blow him away.

By

We're sorry men are so hard to shop for. That husband or boyfriend of yours can be tough to read. Your dad's "get me anything" is impossible to parse. Maybe it's your brother, the guy who has everything. None of them make it easy, but the Esquire shopping team is the foremost institution for reading the minds of men. We know what style, home, and tech tips he needs, and we've compiled all that knowledge into the 79 absolute best gifts for men.

Anything from this list will be a hit, but you know your guy more intimately than we do. Maybe you know he wants something techy, a kitchen and home upgrade, a new luxury staple, or an extraordinary whiskey—buy accordingly. Whether he's an easy-to-pin-down golfer or outdoorsman, an impossible-to-please father-in-law, or just a man you love, we've tested and vetted all these products, so anything you grab is bound to be a winner. Really, trust us, we got you on this one.
