The 30 best gifts for men in 2026 (even the guys who already have everything)

He means business, but his desk says otherwise. Dress it up with a top-grain leather pad, available in three sizes, six leather colors and four rivet finishes. Engrave it with his name, initials or other text of your choosing. I think "the boss" has a nice ring to it. 

Let him raise a glass to his favorite city, whether it's his new home away from home or the place that shaped him. Pair one glass with his liquor of choice or give him a rocks trio that represents his past, present and future.

His life is one for the books, so tap Wonderbly to help you put it in print. Submit his name and birthday (down to the year), then they'll fill the pages with The Washington Post headlines from the past. He's bound to recognize a few of the biggest stories (like if his birthday coincides with the first moon landing), but others are sure to be a surprise.

The only thing he loves more than a day on the green? His beloved pup. And while he can sometimes bring his best buddy to the course, this towel will ensure that he's always there in spirit when they can't be there IRL. Send a head-on photo of his fur baby to guarantee accuracy, then add your names and select the towel color that matches his golf bag. 

Your bedtime shouldn't get in the way of his nighttime reading. When the lights turn off, he can drape this bendable light around his neck to help him see what's on the page. It's not just for reading; crafters, tinkerers and handymen also love it.

The next time he hits the skies, he can plug this Bluetooth adapter into the airplane seat's audio jack and pair his wireless headphones with ease. One jet-setter calls it an "excellent travel companion" since it's compact, comes with a travel pouch and can be charged while it's in use. (Want to know what a text expert thinks? Read Senior Tech Writer Rick Broida's Airfly review.)

Soothe his dry, overworked eyes with this heated massager, which has oscillating massagers to target 10 acupressure points. He can take things up a notch by playing a personal playlist or prerecorded sounds through the built-in speakers. 

Sure, he's a pretty cool guy, but his coffee shouldn't be. Luckily, this self-heating mug will remember his preferences, so he can sip on his coffee, tea or warm beverage of choice at his ideal drinking temperature for up to 80 minutes (or longer if he sets it on the charging coaster).

While, yes, you could always attempt (key word: attempt) to give him a shoulder rub, this electric massager will be more effective in working out his knots and kinks. Drape it over the shoulders or position it somewhere along the waist, then adjust between three different speeds. "This deep-tissue massage hurts and heals in equal measure," one relaxed reviewer raved.

Some things never get old... like the joy of flying paper airplanes. Give a basic paper airplane a power boost with this smart, Bluetooth-enabled sensor, which allows it to fly for up to 10 minutes straight with a range of 230 feet.

Here's a Best Gift Ever Awards winner that'll help your golfer step up his style game. And, ya know, give him and his buddies a good laugh. That's right, these silly socks paint an all-too-relatable picture of his days on the green. 

If the price of this 100% leather wallet doesn't win you over, the 56,000 (and counting) rave Amazon reviews will. "I purchased this for my husband two years ago and it is still in great shape. He uses it everyday and loves the ease of getting his cards out," said one satisfied spouse. Choose from a range of classic neutrals and hard-to-lose brights. 

He wears his white kicks daily, but these high-quality leather sneakers — available in tan, black or navy — will dress up his everyday look (or dress down his business attire). Thanks to the lightweight design and cushioned footbed, he won't have to compromise comfort for style. 

Quince cuts out the middleman — clothes are shipped from the factory straight to your door, giving you even more bang for your buck. My boyfriend has tried their linen pants and basic t-shirts, but he practically lives in their cashmere sweaters (including this stylish zip-up) in the cooler months. It's quality stuff — it's incredibly soft, three times warmer than wool and totally timeless. 

When the sporty look doesn't cut it, he can swap out his everyday watchband for this one made from rugged leather. Like most leather goods, the black, brown or tan band will look even better as it ages.

Grilling has gone high tech. He can connect this Bluetooth-enabled thermometer to his iPhone or Android to keep an eye on whatever he's cooking on the grates and get a ding when it's done. Senior Deals Writer Carrie McCabe had her meat-loving hubby put it to the test, and his glowing review says it all: "I've used this probe twice now, and I've honestly never grilled better meat — it almost feels like cheating."

The mixologist in the making will elevate his bourbon, whiskey or cocktail game with this cherrywood smoke top. Simply fill the chimney with a few wood chips, place the smoke top on a glass, light it up with a butane torch and take in the smoky aroma.

He doesn't need a fancy espresso machine to brew his morning cup of joe. Nope, he just needs some freshly ground coffee and this portable press, which is a French press, pour-over coffee maker and espresso machine all in one. Just stir the medium-fine ground coffee and water for up to 30 seconds and press the perfect cup.

Fire up the grill and sear meats, seafood and vegetables on this solid salt slab to infuse them with delicious flavor. "I was afraid things would be overly salty, but that is not the case. I pre-season things (without salt) and the block infuses a perfect salty flavor as the food cooks," one at-home chef commented, adding that it's "really easy to clean up after use."

This isn't your average garment bag. Nope, this one, which one Halfday shopper called "an engineering marvel," turns into a carry-on duffel with enough space to fit at least three days' worth of clothes, shoes and toiletries. Managing Editor Scott Simone has owned one for over two years, and his rave review helped it earn a spot on our list of the best luggage of 2026.

These compression packing cubes made Google's Holiday 100 list back in 2023, but the best trends never go out of style. "I used all but the largest cube for a 16-day trip to Europe, which I packed for in a carry-on size roller suitcase. I used a capsule wardrobe, but was able to fit quite a lot into each cube," one efficient packer wrote. If you know a guy who needs to get his travel game together before his next trip, this trending gift may be just the thing.

He has more to keep track of when he's traveling abroad. This wallet keeps it all in one place, plus it's also big enough to hold his credit cards, cash, ID and other on-the-go essentials. There's even an extra compartment for a spare SIM and an ejector pin, along with a small pen to fill out customs forms or other documents. 

Even the most daring types need to keep their health and safety top of mind when they're on the trails. When he's in a pinch, he can pop this portable filter into a body of water for instant hydration — minus the microplastics, dirt and waterborne bacteria and parasites. 

He can rest easy knowing his towels, electronics and other valuables will stay nice and dry in this durable, watertight bag. There's even a built-in bottle opener, along with an insulated layer to keep food and drinks chilled.

His passion for pickleball isn't going anywhere, so it's about time he has a designated bag to tote around the game's essentials. He can stash his paddle in the main compartment, balls in the smaller one and other on-the-court items in the zippered pockets. "It is very lightweight even with my paddle, 8-10 balls, sunglasses, a couple of hats, [a] cooling towel and a big Yeti water bottle," a pleased pickleballer commented. "I’ve only used it as a backpack, but you can zip the straps together to make it a sling bag."

Funky socks make meetings, weddings and other obligations all the more fun. Send him a fresh pair each month with this subscription, whether he prefers something wild and colorful or fun but calmer (Foot Cardigan's words, not ours). Or better yet, give him both types for $20 a month.

This one's for all the serious snackers out there. Each month, Universal Yums will send him a selection of snacks from a different country — make South Korea, Pakistan, Greece or the United Kingdom the first stop on his food-filled adventure. The Yum Yum Box is the middle-of-the-road option with anywhere from 10 to 12 snacks per month, but you can also sign him up for a smaller ($18/month) or larger ($41/month) box, depending on how much of a snacker he is. 

Give your guy a closer look at America’s past with this monthly subscription, which sends a replication of an important document, letter or police report from the last century to his mailbox. Some will give insight into events he's read about, others will be all-new discoveries for even the biggest history buff. 

Because memories are the best gift you can give. Let him choose from over 10,000 awe-inspiring experiences around the world, from a hot air balloon ride in Temecula to a ride-along experience on a real race track. And while he can always stick with something close to home, there's a good chance the thing that catches his eye may inspire a vacation. That wouldn't be so bad, would it?
