Best Valentines Day Gifts for Men

If you’re reading this article – the Best Valentines Day Gifts for Men – then you probably are empty handed right now and need a last minute gift. The incomparable Snoop Dogg probably had it right back in the day when he told the world of the striking similarities between man and man’s best friend.

Women on the hunt for Valentines gifts for men should try to keep these similarities in mind when they hit the mall. Now, I’m not saying we’re all dogs, but when you start to think about it, the comparisons really are striking.

Best Valentines Day Gifts for Men

Man in a simple animal. He craves, above all, three things:
1. Glory and Excess
2. Cool gadgets
3. BBQ Ribs

Find me one dog on your block that doesn’t crave those exact things and I’ll find you a Pomeranian (not that there’s anything wrong with Pomeranians. They’re nice dogs).

With these three categories in mind, let’s turn to the gifts themselves.

Gifts that Appeal to His Need for Glory and Excess

1. Luxury Watches. This time of year, deals for blingin watches are a dime a dozen online. For instance, Amazon’s currently selling a sleek stainless steel Invicta Pro for 80% off. In addition, the watch will impress his inner Jaques Cousteau with this completely unnecessary, yet totally awesome feature: The watch is water resistant up to a depth of 330 feet. Amazon also has a slew of other watches on sale.

2. Nice Bottle of Whiskey. While some guys can be pretty particular about the brand of whiskey they drink, most will appreciate a bottle of Maker’s Mark, Macallan, or Jameson.

3. Ski or Snowboarding Gear. There is really an endless supply of gifts you can buy for an avid skier or snowboarder. The accessories, from goggles to helmets to clothing, always make nice gifts. If you’ve got a little dough to spend, consider picking a pair of spherical lens goggles. They make you look like an astronaut, but they give you unprecedented peripheral vision and depth perception.

Cool Gadgets

1. iPad. Clearly, this would be the best gift any man, woman or child could receive. While critics have been quick to point out its flaws, there’s no denying that the iPad is one of the most exciting inventions of the past few years.

2. Swiss Army Knife. The original all-in-one tool is still a classic gift for any man. Even if they don’t use it every day (or every month), a Swiss Army knife is an indispensable man tool. Some people would advise picking up a Leatherman knife instead, because they say the blades and tools are a bit sturdiers.

3. GPS Device. While some guys who always “know where we are” would rather get lost than get consult a GPS device, most men also love scouring maps like field generals or trailblazers. The bottom line is that GPS devices are extremely useful and virtually guarantee that you’ll never be lost again.

BBQ Ribs

BBQ Ribs are what God ate on the seventh day. Need I say more? If you know of any other last minute Valentines Day gifts for men, let us know and we’ll keep updating this post.
