I am so glad that we have moved beyond getting men ties and a yearly sweater update for Christmas (though sweaters are always welcome, especially in our house where our two daughters tend to pilfer my husband’s on a regular basis). I’ve somewhat broken down my picks into the Aesthete and the Outdoorsman (though an Aesthete Outdoorsman would choose a Midget).
Some of my favorite ideas: A beautiful pen since writing during quarantine time seems like a good pastime, a have-forever camera (that really is better than the camera on any iPhone #truth), finding a vintage album of a favorite artist (or one that brings back memories), an outdoor fire pit (we bought the Solo stove below and are converts), a Swiss Army knife that leaves you prepared for anything and of course a mega watch and a really fun sports car. (Truth be told, I would gladly take most items on this page myself!)

Thank you for this post. I am always at a loss for husband gifts. Got him the solo outdoor stove!
Oh good! You will enjoy. x Jennifer
