Gift ideas for him: 5 original things to give a man

The guide to choosing an original and personalised gift for him

Original gifts for him, our ideas (for any age)

How many times have you struggled when you had to choose any gifts for him? Yet, just follow a few simple rules to get ideas for the right gift for a man, whatever the occasion and whatever the age. From hobbies to work to style: if you're looking for a gift idea for a man, start by asking yourself these three simple questions and try to narrow down your options:

  • What is his style of clothing?
  • What are his two favourite hobbies?
  • What does he usually use? (anything goes: bracelets, favourite shoes, accessories)
  • Is he a man who likes technology?

If you've already found some answers, you're well on your way to figuring out what to get a man as a gift, and the search for the ideal gift is well under way. Now all that's left to do is getting inspired with this short guide to the perfect gift for a man of any age and any occasion, be it a birthday, graduation, anniversary or Father's Day.

What to give a man for his birthday? 

We created a list of original gifts for him: a birthday is a happy and intimate occasion. Choosing a gift is easy if you get inspired! Think about the character of the person you are celebrating, his style and habits: receiving a personalised birthday gift is certainly rewarding and original, but finding the right idea is not always easy. We often wonder what to give a man who has everything: in this case our suggestion is to link an object to a shared memory. For example:

  1. Giving a piece of jewellery to a man, if the person you are giving a gift to loves wearing jewellery and accessories, it is a good idea! For example, an original gift idea for him is a handcrafted bracelet: Braccialetti AUA  produces different types of bracelets with coloured glass drops inspired by the most beautiful Italian cities, seas and winds. What memories bind you? Some people who bought AUA bracelets sealed special encounters with a dedicated piece of jewellery: one customer told us that he met his future wife in Gallipoli during a summer holiday. The perfect gift for their wedding anniversary was a Gallipoli by Night, a bracelet with coloured glass drops inspired by the colours of the beautiful Apulian city. And you, do you have a special memory with your friend, boyfriend, dad, brother? Take a look at the AUA bracelet collection, there might be something for you! If the birthday boy loves exclusive jewellery and unique pieces, you can opt for an original gift: AUA often offers limited edition bracelets, just sign up for our newsletter to keep up to date and get access to the future pre-sales of limited edition bracelets. Jewellery is often a great gift idea for a dandy man!
  2. Tech gifts for men in 2021: if you are looking for a gift for a man who loves technology, you're spoilt for choice. From new TVs and smartwatches to tech wine cellars with displays and all the latest home appliances: cordless vacuum cleaners, smart lighting, voice assistants, smart sockets to remotely control the switching on of lights and devices directly from your smartphone, soundbars (great if you're looking for a gift for a man who loves movies), stereo and audio systems or a record player (ideal gift for a man who loves music), barbecues and beauty devices (facial massagers, anti-wrinkle devices and self-care tech accessories);
  3. Backpacks and suitcases are the perfect gift for a man who loves to travel: choose the most comfortable and functional models, backpacks ideal for every moment of the day (in leather, elegant but not too formal) or waterproof travel bags, useful in the gym and when travelling. A men's backpack for every day or a shoulder bag is always a good idea, in which case it is important to carefully choose the size on the basis of his habits (e.g. does he carry a lot of books with him?  How big is his laptop?) and the shape of the compression straps, which may be more uncomfortable when overloaded. Does the person you are giving a gift often take long trips or does he prefer short trips? Does he love luxury and designer bags? Carefully choose the perfect suitcase for him the market offers many practical and lightweight suitcases ; 
  4. A personalised gift is indeed a symbol of care and intimacy, but what is a personalised gift? From shirts and rings to carpets and lamps, there are plenty of options if you are looking for a personalised gift for him

Saving money on gifts without sacrificing quality: how to do it? 

Don't wait until the last minute! With the right timing you can choose a gift for him without settling and after drawing from endless gift ideas for men choose the right one. Here are a few suggestions for making a good gift without spending a too much:

  • take advantage of the sales: keep an eye out for gift ideas during the summer and winter sales;
  • buy during Black Week! Buying Christmas presents during Black Friday 2021 is a really smart move. Mark the date: black Friday 2021 discounts begin on 26 November but there is often a tendency to extend (or advance by a few hours) the duration of promotions. Also Braccialetti AUA offers incredible discounts for Black Friday, stay alert!
  • Subscribe to the newsletters of your favourite brands, companies often offer exclusive discounts and promotions for their most loyal users;
  • Make several gifts at the same time, in many cases you can benefit from exceptional discounts when ordering over a certain amount.
