Unusual Christmas Gift Ideas For Men



Do you find yourself buying the same tired old Christmas presents for your husband or boyfriend year after year? As most of us know, it can be hard trying to think of original presents, particularly if you have lots of other people to buy for as well. Jumpers, socks or DVDs are all very well but sometimes it’s nice to find something a bit different. If you’re finding it hard to get inspiration, here are some more unusual Christmas present ideas for men to consider:

Experience Day: if your other half has always fancied a day out driving a Ferrari round a race track, or learning to fly a plane, why not choose this for a Christmas present? As a one-off experience it will certainly give them a day out to remember – plus you will have fewer potentially unwanted gifts taking up space in your house when the festive season is over.

Scottish Titles: Does the man in your life have some Scottish ancestry teamed with a few delusions of grandeur? If so, buying them a souvenir plot of land in an area such as Loch Ness may be just what they’ve always wanted but never knew they did. These little plots of land will come with courtesy Scottish titles, such as ‘Laird’, and a certificate to confirm their ownership of the land. It will look good on the wall and certainly provide an interesting talking point.


Personalised Bottle Of Wine: if you’re working to a lower budget, bottles of wine with your other half’s name on them and a personal message make a great gift. You can go for a cheaper bottle of plonk or splash out a little more if you want to. If you want to add to the gift you could even opt for a personalised wine stopper to go with it.

Personalised Football Archive Book: Is your boyfriend fanatical about their football team? If so, consider getting them the perfect piece of memorabilia: an archive album of their team listing all the key moments from its history with pictures and collections of original newspaper articles. If you shop around online you will find plenty of websites selling this kind of gift.

Onesie: If you really want to go cheap and cheerful and help your other half stay warm throughout the winter, then bear in mind that adult onesies are proving a huge hit this year. They may have the appearance of extremely oversized romper suits but they are guaranteed to keep the wearer cosy, and you can find novelty versions as well for added comedy value.
