This might be a hot take, but “I don’t need anything” people are the worst to shop for. Like, what do you mean you already bought everything you wanted?! Give me some sort of starting point, I’m begging ya!! If your brother, dad, or partner are digging their heels into the ground about what they want for the holidays, I’m here to tell you that there are things they actually want. It’s just time to get creative, that’s all!

Let’s just assume he has plenty of whiskey and plenty of ties. What else is there to gift?! Lots, TYVM, and this super scientifically accurate list of gifts for the man who (allegedly) has everything is a great starting point. Plus, he might have a lot of stuff, but that doesn’t mean that the stuff he has is, well, good. Those T-shirts from college? Upgrade ‘em with a couple of high-quality cotton options that fit way better. Is he currently making his protein shakes in a food processor? Bought himself all the tech he wants but doesn’t have a place to charge it all? We can do better than that.

So grab that credit card and get ready to browse the best gifts for the man who has everything, from sentimental options to gadgets they didn’t even know existed.
