The Best Gifts for Boyfriends & Husbands, According to R29 Editors

Why is it that gifts for men seem uniquely impossible? Since we often need a little inspiration shopping for the dudes in our lives, we went to some of our paired-off Most Wanted team members to see what their husbands and boyfriends can expect under the tree this year. Through their recommendations, we discovered that even basics like socks and sweaters don't have to feel boring — and indeed can be downright thoughtful. We also found a selection of surprising gadgets, home goods, and travel accessories to round out our list of both tried-and-true gifts and unexpected picks.

Whether your partner is a tech-savvy member of Gen Z or slightly older (and possibly hard to shop for or difficult to surprise), there's a wide range of gifts ahead to please everyone. Whatever your budget is and whatever your partner's interests are, read on to find both extra-luxe gifts and fun gifts under $50 to help check that special someone off your holiday list.
