People / Marcus Millan
Few clichés ring quite as true as men being difficult to shop for. Of course, this depends on the person, but if you find yourself scratching your head when birthdays, anniversaries, and holidays pop up, look no further. We rounded up some of the best gifts for men, including must-haves from our 2023 Sexiest Man Alive, Patrick Dempsey, as well as skincare picks from John Legend’s Loved01 line, recovery tools from Tom Brady’s TB12 brand, and items we’ve spotted on celeb dads like Thomas Rhett and Drake.
On top of celebrity dad picks (did we mention Michael Strahan and The Walking Dead's Jeffrey Dean Morgan recommended a few, too?), we’ve included some of our favorite PEOPLE Tested picks as well, so we’re confident your guy is going to get a lot of use out of anything on this list.
Read on for 75 gifts that are sure to be a hit for holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, and more.
Under $50 Gifts
Yeti Rambler 10-Ounce Stackable Lowball
Amazon
We can’t remember the last time we saw a photo where country music star Thomas Rhett wasn’t wearing a Yeti cap. Celebrities like Strahan and Drake are also fans of the brand, and in general, a Yeti rambler is a solid gift for anyone. We love this 10-ounce stackable lowball to keep your cold beverages ice cold, but if you're looking for more options, there are plenty of new releases on the brand's website, too.
Bag Balm Vermont’s Original Skin Moisturizer
Amazon
Many people suffer from dry hands in the winter — even our 2023 Sexiest Man Alive, Patrick Dempsey.
In our PEOPLE December 4th issue, Dempsey shares his favorite gifts under $150. His most affordable pick is this hydrating hand balm from Bag Balm. Dempsey says in the interview that he uses this when his hands start to get dry, “especially during the colder months.”
Sneaker Lab Shoe Cleaner
Amazon
Dempsey tells PEOPLE that this is the best sneaker cleaner he’s found, adding that it “makes my old sneakers look new again.” If your guy obsesses over his sneakers, he will certainly appreciate this Dempsey-approved pick.
Philips Norelco OneBlade
Amazon
We know it’s cliché to recommend a razor as a men’s gift, but when it’s the razor Dempsey uses, we think it’s important to share. “This gives me a close shave — and it’s travel-friendly, too,” he says in the interview.
Mark and Graham Nomad Rugged Case for AirPods
Mark and Graham
Apple Airpods Pro are a great gift, but if your giftee already has a pair (or if you’re looking for an under-$50 gift), then this customizable Airpods case from Mark & Graham is just what you need for a thoughtful, affordable gift he’ll actually use.

Although it looks small, it’s still spacious — you can fit up to a 16-inch laptop in the computer sleeve in the back and a 10.5-inch tablet in the pocket directly in front of it.

If your guy insists he doesn’t need a new “fancy” pair of headphones and is still constantly untangling a wired pair of headphones, it’s time to give him a gift that will change his life.

Rux 70L
Moosejaw
There are those who love organization and those who really wish they loved organization. Either way, the RUX 70L System is a crowdpleaser. We’re unsure if we should call this product a bag, an organization box, or a tech item because it is truly all three.
The RUX 70L collapses when not in use for easy storage, and when you’re ready, it pops up to create a secure, waterproof storage system. Store it in the garage, haul it in the back of a truck, or carry it with the included straps.
On top of that, an app keeps a running list (and pictures) of any items stored away in the 70L, so you won’t have to listen to a certain someone say, “Now, where did I put that?”
