What are some thoughtful men's Christmas presents and what gifts do guys like most? Find all the answers about what to get right here!


Gift giving doesn't have to be difficult! In fact, it can really be quite simple when you break it down and think about a few important things. What you decide to buy should take into account who the recipient is as a person, what their taste is, what they like, and what they enjoy doing. On top of that, consider if there is anything they've requested, or anything they are lacking. After all, the most thoughtful Christmas presents are those that are tailored to the individual! Like everyone, guys like gifts that make them feel seen, known, loved and listened to! So, if you know the man you're buying for is an avid adventurer, it's safe to assume that giving him gear that will assist his explorations is sure to put a smile on his face. Therefore, we suggest considering what equipment he's missing that can plug a practical gap, reflecting on what adventure accessories he already possesses that need rejuvenating, or mulling over what he might require to get prepped for a future expedition. With that in mind, stay tuned for our top 10 gifts for a guy that loves to encounter new horizons.

1. Top notch outerwear – the best present for men that love the outdoors


If he thrives on adventure and is passionate about exploring the great outdoors, then an ultra-insulating, quality parka or heavy-duty puffer jacket is the ultimate Xmas present pick! A brand-new outer layer that will keep him warm and dry is sure to accompany him on any and every adventure, enabling him to persevere in even the coldest climes and brave the outside world for hours on end. Trust us, by treating him to technical outerwear, you'll be granting him the ability to conquer new heights and visit places previously unseen!

2. A quality fleece – the perfect present for every season


Just like an optimal outer-layer, a decent mid-layer is vital for every venture! So, gift warmth and softness this Christmas, in the form of a fleece. Whether you go for a fleece jacket or fleece jumper, or even a finer microfleece design, this wardrobe essential is sure to satisfy the lucky recipient. Not only will it provide unrivalled insulation underneath a thicker layer in winter, but it can double up as a go-to top layer in spring and summer, making it a gift that keeps on giving year-round.

3. A practical backpack – a favourite for every man


No matter whether it's an adventure into town, along the coast or up a mountain, a backpack is necessary for storing every man's essentials, wherever he goes. This key piece of equipment can come in many shapes, styles and sizes. For shorter adventures, a standard, smaller rucksack should do the trick. But for weekend trips or even longer excursions, a 30 or even 40-litre backpack is a better bet. Choose from roll-up designs, backpacks from big brand names or even weather-resistant models.

While they're often more sought after for taking on inclines or tackling descents, walking poles can offer a significant amount of support on flatter terrains too.

6. A sleeping bag or tent – for camping enthusiasts


Through-and-through adventurers generally love to hit the hay surrounded by nature. They love camping and caravanning and feel most serene when sleeping under the stars. If this sounds like the man you're intending to buy for, then why not promise him sweet dreams by gifting him a sleeping bag. Alternatively, give him the gear to do what he does best – pitching up a tent! Equipment like this will no doubt facilitate some epic trips, resulting in memorable moments.

7. Winter accessories – the ideal budget-friendly stocking filler for every guy


Sometimes less is more! And, when you're strapped for cash, it's also worth remembering that it's the thought that counts.

Small but mighty, these winter warmers offer essential protection for your extremities which, believe it or not, massively influences the longevity of your adventure. Plus, they make a great stocking filler and are likewise ideal for Secret Santa.

8. A travel mug or water bottle – on the go essentials


To explore to the best of his ability, your special man needs to stay hydrated!

With models in any and every colour, from sleek silver to energising red, you're guaranteed to find a design that will tickle his fancy.

9. A torch or head torch – to keep him safe


We all know that daytime adventures incur less risk, but occasionally we're caught off guard by the speed at which the sunsets, or sometimes nighttime gallivanting is simply unavoidable. Show your nearest and dearest just how much you care for his safety, by offering him a head torch or classic handheld torch. A practical gift like this is sure to light up his holiday season!
