We all know the drill: You know him so well—his favorite band, his go-to drink order, even his iPhone passcode—but you're still having trouble finding the perfect gift for your boyfriend. And we understand—boyfriends are surprisingly difficult to shop for!
Whether you think every gift idea you have for him is too expensive, or he seems to have everything he could ever want, we know the struggle is real when it comes to choosing gifts for boyfriends for any and all occasions, from Christmas gifts to birthday presents. (Because finding a good Valentine's Day gift for your boyfriend is so difficult, we created an entire list just for that occasion.) This page contains a carefully curated list of Christmas gifts for boyfriend. Our editors believe both are cool, practical, and unique for the men in your life.
1 . For the Pop Culture (and Modern Art) Fan: Inspired Movie or TV Show Posters

3. For the DJ on the Go: Hyperboom Speaker
This ultra-portable Bluetooth speaker packs enough punch (and a significant bass boost) for even the most elaborate party or movie night—indoors or out. It has a 24-hour battery life for all-day play and is water-resistant, so a spilled drink or a little rain won't put an end to the fun. (As a bonus, you can connect it to other Ultimate Ears speakers to create a surround-sound effect.)

6. For the Party Host With the Most: Stand-Up Cooler
Make it easy to serve guests at your next backyard barbecue.

This compact, sleek organizer keeps all of their work essentials in one place and is easily transportable from the dining room table to the desk to the (ahem) couch or bed.

11. For the Guy Who Wants a Glow-Up: Bro Mask
This manly hydrogel mask contains skincare ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and niacinamide to help him reduce fine lines and redness. The genius part is that guys with beards can split the masks in half, getting twice the glow from each sheet.
12. For the Guy Who Walks Everywhere: Allbirds Wool Sneakers
These sneakers are made of wool and are extremely comfortable. No worries if it rains; the water-repellent design will keep his feet dry, so an unexpected rain shower will not send him scrambling for cover. Furthermore, traction grips prevent slips and fall on slick surfaces.
13. For the Casual Hanger: Kubb
This easygoing game is about to become his new go-to for outdoor gatherings and beach trips alike. With the same casual feel as cornhole but a little more strategy, he'll enjoy tossing these sticks around with his buddies (beers in hand, of course).
14. For the Sentimental Beer Drinker: Coordinates Bottle Opener
This bottle opener checks all the boxes if you're looking for a cheap stocking stuffer that's also useful and meaningful. It can be customized to include coordinates important to your relationship, such as where you first met, had your first date, or got married. It will also assist him in cracking open a cold one whenever necessary.
15. For the Life-Long Student: MasterClass Subscription
With an annual subscription to MasterClass, he can learn from the best in food, music, art, and sports. He can experiment with new recipes with Yotam Ottolenghi or learn to mix beats and layer tracks with Timbaland. This is the ideal gift for a boyfriend who is always eager to learn new things.
16. For the Traveler: Airbnb Gift Card
Inspire your next adventure by giving him an Airbnb gift card that allows you to stay anywhere in the country—or the world. Plan a luxurious staycation in your city or jet-set around the world.
17. For the Boyfriend Who's Working on Adulting: Percale Bedding Set
If he's still using the same sheets he's had since college, he'll appreciate this luxurious upgrade. He'll appreciate the breathability of crisp, lightweight percale, especially if he sleeps hot. Choose just a set of pillowcases or a top sheet, or splurge on full bedding set for a total transformation.
18. For the All-Weather Guy: Weatherman Collapsible Umbrella
Give your boyfriend a tougher umbrella than he is: This rain shield can withstand winds of up to 55 miles per hour, so it won't bend and crack at the worst possible time. The Teflon-coated material repels water, and while it folds down to a portable size, it expands to 40 inches, which is more than enough to keep him covered—or protect both of you if you get too close. This boyfriend gift may not be glamorous, but it is functional and effective, and he will undoubtedly use it (and think of you) frequently.
19. For the Lounger: Long Jambes
These pants, designed specifically for a couch potato, are lighter than sweatpants and softer than joggers. They have a drawstring waist and a tapered leg, so he looks fashionable while remaining comfortable.
20. For the Board Gamer: Scythe Board Game
If he enjoys Settlers of Catan, Terraforming Mars, Ticket to Ride, or any other popular board game, he should add this to his collection. This strategy-based game, a cross between Risk and Catan, is all about exploring new territory and defending your territory.

21. For the Griller: Cuisinart 20-Piece Grilling Tool Set

22. For the Cocktail Connoisseur: The Old Fashioned Carry-on Cocktail Kit
If he enjoys Old Fashioneds, he can learn to make them wherever he goes with this portable cocktail kit. A simple recipe card will guide your coworker through the process of creating his craft cocktail. The set includes everything you need to get started, including a spoon, muddler, aromatic bitter, cane sugar, and a portable tin. With the addition of alcohol, he'll be shaking up signature cocktails in no time.
23. For the Whiskey Drinker: Greenline Goods Whiskey Glasses
This barware is carefully etched with city maps to transform your boyfriend's home or apartment into his favorite local spot, giving new meaning to the local watering hole. There are several locations to choose from, ranging from Los Angeles to New Orleans, so you can select from a variety of glasses that feature all of the most important locations in his life, such as where he grew up, went to college, and more.
24. For the Baseball Fan: Baseball Stadium Blueprints
Make a baseball blueprint to commemorate his favorite stadium. The detailed illustration of his choice honors America's favorite pastime with a look at a single stadium's design specs and major historic highlights, printed on museum-grade paper. The blueprint has a vintage feel thanks to an antique finish, and there's no need to look for a suitable frame because the art comes encased in black bonanza wood. All you have to do now is add a bow!
25. For the Self-Pamperer: Viking Revolution Beard Care Kit
So your boyfriend takes pride in his self-care rituals and morning grooming routine. With this luxurious kit, shaving will feel even less like a chore. It includes a beard brush, comb, unscented beard oil, styling balm, and scissors, all contained in a stylish metal tin.

27. For the History Buff: The Contender: The Game of Presidential Debate
This game is similar to the party-favorite Cards Against Humanity, but you can play it with family—though we can't guarantee his uncle won't go on a tirade! Players in this hilarious card game collect cards with famous (and true!) one-liners from various political figures throughout history. No political knowledge is required to enjoy this gift—just a healthy sense of humor.
28. For the Coffee Drinker: Takeya Deluxe Cold Brew Iced Coffee Maker
