PBF Gift Guide 2019: For Guys

I got a jump start on gift guides this year and yet somehow I still feel like I am behind! I swear having Thanksgiving so late in November makes the holiday season feel a little more hectic this year!

Just in case you’re still doing holiday shopping like me, I hope today’s gift guide for guys if helpful to you. I included a variety of gift ideas for the guys in your life and really hope something pops out at you for a loved one this holiday season.

And just in case you’d like you catch up on my previous gift guides, you may find them here:

PBF Gift Guide for Guys

• lululemon Joggers

I gave these lululemon joggers to Ryan for Christmas last year and they are now one of his favorite pairs of pants! (He actually has a second pair on his wish list this year!) Ryan says they’re the perfect pair of pants for guys who want to wear something more comfortable than jeans or chinos around town but still want to look like they’re a little more put together than they would in a traditional pair of baggy sweats.

• Amazon Echo Dot / Google Home Mini Wall Mount

I initially ordered this wall mount for Ryan as a stocking stuffer to use with our Google Home Minis but I was so anxious to put it to use around our house that I immediately unwrapped it and set it up. I’m now kicking myself for not being more patient because he’s commented on it numerous times saying how much he likes the fact that the two Google Home Minis we have are now out of the way and no longer take up counter top space. I think this wall mount is one of those small, inexpensive gifts that will get a lot of use and appreciation for any Amazon Echo or Google Home Mini fans!

• Boflex Adjustable Dumbbells

When I asked Ryan for gift ideas to include in this year’s gift guide, this was the first item he mentioned! He recently added these adjustable dumbbells to his home gym collection and says they’re the best for streamlining a bunch of dumbbells into one. This is a great gift to keep in mind for the fitness enthusiast who prefers to work out at home and doesn’t have a ton of space to set up a home gym.

• Solo Hybrid Backpack (Backpack, Duffel, Carry-On)

This is a gift I gave to Ryan for Father’s Day that I’ve ended up stealing myself on a number of occasions because it’s so handy! It’s a backpack that doubles as a duffel bag and is perfect for travel, especially for those who prefer to carry-on and don’t want to risk having to gate-check a bag when overhead bin space is minimal. The layout of the bag is also great, as it has separate pockets for a computer, shoes, etc.

• Hand Cut Paper Map or Paper Map Print

This Etsy shop makes the most stunning maps and prints that I think would make a beautiful gift to display in any man’s home or office. The gift can feel a little more personal by selecting a map of the city where he grew up, where you got married, where you first lived together, etc.

• Fidget Spinner Tool

This is part toy part practical gift. The best of both worlds! This spinner tool is a playful little gadget perfect to keep handy on his desk. It’s made with six heads (two standard screwdriver bits, two phillips, and two torx tips) and is a creative little stocking stuffer!

• Casual Sneakers

For the guy who values comfort but doesn’t want to wear his running shoes around town!

Casual Sneaker Favorites: Gola Tennis Suede Sneakers / Slip-On Chuck Taylors (Ryan’s favorites)/ Nike Killshot Sneakers / Veja V-12 Sneakers / All Birds Runners
