While some people are selfish givers, only giving in order to receive, you certainly are not. But if you were, hypothetically speaking, then this list would be pure ammo.

Perhaps a better title would have been “How to Put Your Man in the Hot Seat.” But of course, none of that matters to you, you just want to spread some hope and joy this holiday season.

The Techie: He’s got the latest plasma and more game consoles than you knew existed, but he probably doesn’t have these…

SwivelProjector

Cinemin Swivel Projector $299

TheWandRemote

Kymera Magic Wand, a buttonless universal remote control $83

The Manly Man: Even a head-splitting migraine couldn’t get him to pop one of your Midol’s. He’d rather wait it out than take chic meds.  Gifts for a boy’s boy…

Madles

It’s not a candle. It’s a Mandle, appropriately contained in a beer glass and scented like roast beef and creamed corn. $25

SteakBrander

Let him mark his grilled meat with a Monogrammed Steak Brander $40.

The Utilitarian: If he could, he’d live in a paper box. After all, it’d be cheaper and portable. Oh mercy! Help him add some style, without losing his minimalist spirit with these fun and very functional pieces.

LogDockingStation

Cedar Docking Station $119

portablefireplace

Warm the place up with a portable fireplace like this one by Swedish designer Fredrik Hylten-Cavallius.

The Office Warrior: He’s able to work a 60-hour week and still come home and cook dinner for you. Well, besides a trophy, two other suggestions to help him make office life a little easier.

FridgeLocker

Fridge Locker $20.

mypressi

Mypressy TWIST, a portable espresso machine $169.

The Sneakerhead: He worships Jay-Z and his shoe collection rivals yours.

1_jordan_200

A pair of “OG” (Original Issue) Nikes, like these Air Jordan 1’s listed on ebay. Prices run the gamut, starting at around $300 to $3K. For a more comprehensive sneakerhead wishlist or “The Holy Grail” as they call it, head to nicekicks.com

Don’t have that much dough to spend on your sneaker pimp, purchase one of these cool frames from Sketchy White Van so he can proudly display the pair he’s fondest of.

ShoeDisplay

If you’re crafty, you could try making it.

Any Guy: From Joe-the-plumber to the sensitive soul, any red-blooded man would love either of these gifts.

Barbershopshave1

Treat your guy to an old-fashioned barber shop shave. Click here for a list of Barber Spa locations. $35-$55.

SantaBabyOutfit

You, in this. Santa Baby Garter Set $82.

Be sure to check out this year’s Hostess Gift Guide as well.

Until next time,

    These are some great ideas. Too bad my guy doesn’t work in an office, that fridge locker is hilarious. Thanks for shopping around for us.

    I know a lot of Harry Potter lovers who would DIE for a remote wand!  How fancy!
