Christmas Gift Ideas For Him
We’ve collated our favourite Christmas gifts ideas for men, from tech and gaming, to fashion and beauty.
Get organised early this year and head to Teesside Park to pick up all your perfect Christmas presents.
Consoles, games and accessories
Christmas 2020 is going to be remembered in gaming circles for the launch of three new flagship consoles – the Playstation 5, and the Xbox X and S series. The Playstation launches on November 19th while the new Xbox models are available from November 10th.
Take the gaming up a gear with the newest games and latest accessories. Gaming chairs and headsets are popular choices, and there’s some big game launches just in time for Christmas, including FIFA 21 which hit the shelves in October.
Head to GAME and Currys PC World to find out more.
Fitness gadgets
And from gaming to getting out and about, fitness tech is set to be big on the Christmas gift list this year.
From keeping track of daily steps to tracking the quality of sleep, smart watches and fitness trackers come in all different styles and budgets to suit all lifestyles.
You might also want to consider a good pair of headphones to keep entertained on the move with music, podcasts and audiobooks.
Currys PC World or Menkind is a great place to start, with a team of experts on hand to help you find the right gadget gift.
Gifts that stand the test of time
If you’re looking for a Christmas gift to be remembered this year, watches are always a good idea. With so many options you’ll be spoilt for choice.
When you’re buying for someone else, try to keep in mind the style of the person who’ll be wearing it. Are they more likely to suit a chunky oversized face, or something a little more understated? Try River Island, Next or Menkind.
USC and Superdry also offer a range of stylish watches from brands such as Kangol, Lyle and Scott, French Connection and Armani.
Top cookbooks
From baking banana bread to trying out new recipes, it’s safe to say many of us have spent more time in our kitchens than ever this year. Take cooking skills to a whole new level with one of this season’s best cooking books.
WHSmith, Hobbycraft, Marks & Spencer and Menkind has a great range to choose from and will have options for people of all abilities, from beginners to seasoned cooks.
Eat, drink and be merry
It’s no secret that the best part of Christmas is the food (and drink!), and you’ll get lost in the aisles of Marks & Spencer and Morrisons with the foodie gifts and festive tipples on offer.
Profiteroles- M&S
Whether it’s luxury mince pies, festive biscuits, Christmas chocolates, gingerbread, fudge or another sugary delight, there’s an endless choice for those with a sweet tooth. Or for those who’d always opt for savoury, you can’t go wrong with a nice cheeseboard.
And if you’d rather not choose just one, a Christmas hamper is a great way to go!
There are also some boozy gift sets on offer that are the perfect way to sample something new, from artisan gins to craft beers, or a selection of wines from around the world.
Grooming
It’s no surprise that men’s grooming kits are set to be a big hit this Christmas, after many of us had to get to grips with DIY hair styling during lockdown.
There’s a wide choice of beard trimming and shaving kits available, many complete with razors, skincare and – in some instances – aftershave. Check out the ranges available at Boots, Asda, Marks & Spencer, TK Maxx, Superdrug and Menkind.
Winter skincare
Perfect as a Christmas stocking filler, an intensive moisturiser will help to keep skin in good condition through the winter months.
Check out the full range of men’s skincare at Boots, Asda, Marks & Spencer, TK Maxx, Superdrug and Menkind.
Christmas cologne
When it comes to aftershave, you can play it safe by choosing a scent you know they already love.
But, if you’re feeling like switching things up, a trip into store to try the different fragrances for yourself is a must – Boots, Asda, Marks & Spencer, TK Maxx and Superdrug all have extensive designer ranges, and lots of the high street brands also have their own lines, too.
Men’s Fragrance at M&S
Lounging about
With many of us spending more time at home than ever before, 2020 fashion has been all about comfort. Brands such as Next, Marks & Spencer, Topman, Superdry, USC, River Island, New Look, Asda and H&M are all going big on loungewear for men, whether it’s cosy pyjamas, cool tracksuits or oversized hoodies.
Couple loungewear with a Christmas gift staple – a good old pair of socks!
Seasonal style updates
Cardigans, suede jackets and sweaters all make the top lists for men’s fashion trends this season. You’ll find plenty to choose from at stores including Next, Moss Bros, Marks & Spencer, Topman, Superdry, USC, River Island, New Look, Asda and H&M.
