Valentine’s Gifts For Him – Stuff Your Guy Will Love

Just like that, Christmas is a thing of the past, and Valentine’s Day is just around the corner! I am a sentimental romantic and love spoiling my guy on Valentine’s. The big question is what to buy him?!

The Perfect Valentine’s Gift For Him

Many people like me are wracking their brains trying to think of the perfect gift. So I thought I would put together a gift guide to inspire you – “My Valentine’s Gifts For Him”.

A Valentine’s gift should be romantic and personal, showing your special someone how much they mean to you.

Fragrance

One of my favourite gifts to buy a guy is a new fragrance. Who doesn’t love their man to smell good? And the bonus is that he will think of you each time he uses it! Of course, a fragrance can be quite personal, but there are many options when selecting a scent, from woody, spicy or musky to fresh and citrusy. Top brands such as Hugo boss, Calvin Klein, Issy Miyake, and Lacoste are a great place to start.

Golf Shirt

If you have a limited budget, a Golf Shirt or T-shirt are great options! You can most certainly get away with a gift under R500. With an extensive variety of choices when buying men’s T-shirts, from branded tops with logos to more sporty styles, you really cannot go wrong with this as a gift option. I love a golf shirt because it is more dressy than a regular t-shirt.

Sunglasses

A stylish pair of sunnies is also an ideal gift choice, with so many great styles available. While aviator sunglasses are still very much on-trend, chunky frames and coloured lenses are also gaining popularity. Big-brand sunglasses will be at the top end of your budget, but if you want to avoid spending too much, you can easily find a trendy pair for between R500 to R1000.

Peak Cap

You cannot go wrong with a peak cap or a hat, especially in the heat of summer! It is a wonderful gift as it can be both a practical and a stylish way to help ward off the harsh African sun. Again options are plentiful when it comes to style and colour, ranging from everyday casual to something a bit more sporty. For the latter, lightweight, breathable fabric is the best choice.

Wallet

Wallets or billfolds can come in many shapes, sizes and configurations. For me, quality is the deciding factor when choosing the correct one. Leather is the best option as it is definitely the most durable. Most guys that I know prefer something slimline that fits easily into a trouser or a jacket pocket. While cash is considered king, most people nowadays opt for cashless shopping, making a credit card wallet preferable.

Whiskey Glasses

While choosing the best whiskey glass can be as personal as choosing the best whiskey, they do make for an inspired gift choice. The “rocks glass” remains the most popular option, with a wide rim for a larger sip ratio. Styles can range from classic and old-school to quirky and modern.

In Closing
