As much as I’ve previously stated that men are the most difficult to shop for, I’ve ironically finished the men’s gift guide before the women’s this year– I guess the joke is on me huh? Once again, I strived to narrow everything down and simplify the guide to things that our guys might actually find useful and not just slumped over a chair or stuffed into a drawer until we meet again next Christmas.

Mostly all of these products included in this year’s guide are products JD swears by–plus a few additional products below that he’s recently been enjoying, but unfortunately missed the deadline to be included in the actual collage graphic above 😉

1. Shoe cleaning kit
2. “One Minute Prayers for Men” book
3. “199 Favorite Bible Verses for Men” book
4. Ugg “Scuff” Slippers
5. Ugg Chukka Boot
6. Wooden Phone / Accessories Docking Station
7. Lexon Mino x Bluetooth portable speaker
8. Bose Soundlink Micro Bluetooth speaker
9. Champion Beanie Hat
10. Portable back & neck massager
11. Wrangler Quilted Flannel Shirt Jacket
12. Cozy Sherpa Lined plaid jacket
13. Patagonia Quarter Zip Fleece Pullover
14. North Face Puffer Vest
15. Cozy Sherpa Lined Hoodie — JD has had his for over a year and it’s one of his most worn pieces!
16. Calvin Klein Briefs
17. Smokehouse Ultimate Spice Grilling Set
18. THESE Lululemon Running Shorts (JD’s go-to!)
19. Yeti Travel Mug — JD will only use Yeti, and for good reason. It’s the only insulated mug that can truly keep your hot beverages hot and the cold ones cold. Passes the 100 degree California heat test 😉
20. On Cloud Running Shoes (also a major go to for JD)
21. Weekender Duffle bag

Not included in this graphic:

22. Nespresso Vertuo — this is on sale for $100 off & comes in a big ol bundle with the milk frother and a lot of pods. We have had ours for 3 years and it is hands down far better than a Keurig.

23. OXO Pour Over: JD takes this on deployment with him and I have used this from time to time with Dunkin brand coffee or specialty coffee shop brands and it truly makes a fool proof cup of coffee every single time

24. Peloton Spin Bike Tray: We BOTH love this for those spin sessions where you just ride & get some extra work done.

25. THIS Specific Car Phone Charger by Anker: Works so much faster than your run of the mill phone chargers and actually lasts.
