Socks!\u201d My father-in-law had just opened his present and was genuinely happy to see the gift inside. As a kid, I <i>hated<\/i> getting socks for Christmas, but my father-in-law, an avid outdoorsman, always needed thick wool socks to keep his feet warm and dry. As I\u2019ve learned over the years of shopping for guys with traditionally masculine interests, it\u2019s important to try to get inside their heads\u2014just because socks seem boring to me doesn\u2019t mean they aren\u2019t the perfect gift for someone else!<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s always been easy to shop for my friends, mom, and sister, but when it comes to the guys in my life, it\u2019s not so simple. I often end up focusing on <a href=\"\/blog\/2017\/10\/10\/homemade-christmas-gifts-for-in-laws-who-have-everything\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">homemade Christmas gifts<\/a>, but sometimes there\u2019s just not enough time to make something from scratch for everyone. Plus, if you\u2019re playing Secret Santa with a group you don\u2019t know as well as your family, it\u2019s a good idea to have a few ideas in the back of your mind.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you\u2019re shopping for a family member, coworker, or friend, these Secret Santa gifts for guys are perfect for the manly men in your life.<\/p>\n<h4>Hearty Food Gifts for Men<\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8807\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8807\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8807\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/il_570xN.1144688071_966r-min-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Give men the gift of food. \" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.elfster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/il_570xN.1144688071_966r-min-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.elfster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/il_570xN.1144688071_966r-min-405x270.jpg 405w, https:\/\/www.elfster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/il_570xN.1144688071_966r-min.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8807\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Time to chow down on some jerky! | Image courtesy Etsy user <a href=\"https:\/\/www.etsy.com\/listing\/496434797\/garlic-butter-beef-jerky-3oz?ga_order=most_relevant&amp;ga_search_type=all&amp;ga_view_type=gallery&amp;ga_search_query=jerky&amp;ref=sc_gallery_4&amp;plkey=ad698114c8e9ae98a5de550b9a60499a3c63393e:496434797&amp;source=aw&amp;utm_source=affiliate_window&amp;utm_medium=affiliate&amp;utm_campaign=us_location_buyer&amp;awc=6220_1508947102_455d2d437123e43fd6c7aeadffccfaee&amp;utm_content=256677\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SmokiePoohJerky<\/a>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>My husband picked up a gift from under the tree.

But as I grew older, I realized that you get what you pay for. So I was startled when my husband and I moved in together and I saw the rusted can of dollar store shaving cream he was still using (though it did explain his razor burn). He works outside a lot and loves to hike and fish on the weekends, so his skin takes a beating. Yet he\u2019s reluctant to use any of my skincare products.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why last year for my <a href=\"\/blog\/2017\/06\/27\/best-gifts-husbands-birthday-show-love\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">husband\u2019s birthday<\/a>, I put together a gift package full of high-end men\u2019s skincare products. I was afraid he might not be interested, but after a little encouragement and instruction (turns out he didn\u2019t know what to do with face lotion!), he became a huge fan. These days, he\u2019s almost pickier about his skincare products than I am!<\/p>\n<p>Here are some of the self-care Secret Santa gifts for guys you can add to your shopping list:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Heavy-duty hand lotion<\/b> for guys who suffer from rough or cracked, calloused hands<\/li>\n<li><b>Face lotion with an SPF<\/b>, especially if he spends a lot of time outdoors<\/li>\n<li><b>Extra-moisturizing shaving cream or lotion<\/b>, which is key to preventing razor burn and cutting through rough facial hair<\/li>\n<li><b>Beard oil<\/b> so he can groom his manliest accessory<\/li>\n<li><b>A fancy razor<\/b> because the cheap drugstore ones are hazardous<\/li>\n<li><b>High-end deodorant\/antiperspirant<\/b>, so he doesn\u2019t walk around smelling like a frat boy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Pack the items in a nice leather case so he can keep track of everything, and keep it out of the way if he\u2019s a little insecure about taking an interest in the finer things in life.<\/p>\n<h4>The Ultimate Sports Night Out<\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8809\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8809\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8809\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/photo-1480563597043-1c877e682fc7-min-300x200.jpeg\" alt=\"Take your man to a sporting event.\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.elfster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/photo-1480563597043-1c877e682fc7-min-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.elfster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/photo-1480563597043-1c877e682fc7-min-405x270.jpeg 405w, https:\/\/www.elfster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/photo-1480563597043-1c877e682fc7-min.jpeg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8809\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tickets to a sporting event will make him your number one fan. | Image courtesy Unsplash user <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/bYvo2ol_img\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nick Jio<\/a>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>To me, it\u2019s a dirty old baseball. But to my dad, it\u2019s everything. My mom had gotten my dad the ball, signed by one of his favorite Red Sox players, for one of their anniversaries, and it sat proudly on our mantle every year since. Like a lot of people, my dad was obsessed with sports, be it baseball, football, or NASCAR racing. As such, the most successful gifts for him had to do with his favorite teams and athletes.<\/p>\n<p>But instead of trying to get your hands on a piece of expensive sports memorabilia, you can surprise your Secret Santa recipient with an experiential sporting gift. After all, the gift of an experience is something everyone can treasure, even those <a href=\"\/blog\/2017\/10\/24\/ten-thoughtful-gifts-for-the-dad-who-wants-nothing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">guys who say they don\u2019t want anything<\/a>. For instance:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Tickets to the big game:<\/b> Treat your guy with two tickets to a game of their favorite local sporting team. If you know them well enough that you\u2019ll be their plus one, you can offer up your epic tailgating skills, too. Just make sure you bring plenty of food so they don\u2019t have to get up during the game for a bite to eat.<\/li>\n<li><b>A night out on the town to watch a game:<\/b> If you don\u2019t live near a big stadium, offer the next best thing. Give your Secret Santa recipient a gift certificate to the best sports bar in town, with enough that they can get as many wings and refreshments as they need while they watch the game.<\/li>\n<li><b>Host the ultimate sports night:<\/b> Throw your Secret Santa recipient a game night party at your house, where you take care of all the decorations and refreshments. Bonus points if you have a big screen TV and comfy couch!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Sports mean a lot to true fans, and giving your Secret Santa recipient a gift that speaks to their passion will make them your number one fan.<\/p>\n<h4>Selecting the Best Secret Santa Gifts for Guys<\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8814\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8814\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8814\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/wil-stewart-24562-min-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"secret santa gifts for guys\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.elfster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/wil-stewart-24562-min-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.elfster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/wil-stewart-24562-min-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.elfster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/wil-stewart-24562-min-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.elfster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/wil-stewart-24562-min-2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.elfster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/wil-stewart-24562-min-2-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.elfster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/wil-stewart-24562-min-2-405x270.jpg 405w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8814\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cheers to the manly men in your life! | Image courtesy Unsplash user <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/UErWoQEoMrc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wil Stewart<\/a>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Shopping for the manly man in your life\u2014 whether it\u2019s the burly guy from accounting who you were assigned to in Secret Santa or your outdoorsy husband\u2014doesn\u2019t have to be a chore.
