If you’re looking for stocking stuffers for men, you’ve got to read this post! It was written by a man!
Last year, we published 32 Stocking Stuffers Ideas for Men (written by a man) and got some positive feedback about how helpful it was to many of our readers, so be sure to check out that post for manly soaps, handmade pens, beard care, and other awesome items.
I thought we would add to list, so here are a few more things for your man’s stocking…suggested by a man.
Erin and I really only give each other stockings for Christmas, so as a gift giver, I’ve found that I can fit a lot into a stocking…haha.
At any point, you know you can always hit him up with gift cards(iTunes, PlayStation, restaurants, favorite stores, etc.),movie tickets, DVDs (been lots of great new ones or classic sagas),games, candy, gum, batteries, ammo, homemade coupons, underwear (something fun),some cool socks, his favorite cigar, or magazines. These are all excellent ideas that fit nicely into a stocking.
But let’s try to add a few more items to the list. Again, some may be a little on the humorous side while others can be a little more normal.
Lists like this could could go on and on, so I encourage you to study your man, know what he likes, and find the appropriate gifts. If you see something here that doesn’t quite fit your man, see if it sparks any other ideas for you to explore. I tried not to repeat any items, but you may find a couple of unintentional repeats.
There are varying price points on this list, so I would also encourage you to make sure you are staying within your budget and select gifts accordingly. Some small items can be quite expensive, so you could add one or two nice items and fill it with a few other smaller, less costly treats.
Accessories
This is definitely a category where you need to know your man. Some guys will wear stuff like this, and others won’t, so you just need to know what your man likes or doesn’t like. I personally don’t wear necklaces, but I love my Nemesis watches.

I typically have my husband candy, gum, work gloves, chap stick, and pens! LOL I know he would appreciate anything and everything on this list so thank you!!

Last year at an event, my husband spotted a vendor that had Fight Club soap for sale. Unfortunately we didn’t budget well at the time and could not get it. When his back was turned I grabbed a business card and ordered him some for Christmas to put in his stocking. To this day it is his favorite gift I’ve given him! He refuses to use it and it sits next to his gaming computer. I’m pretty hard pressed to find something to top it this year. Wish me luck!

What was the name of the company you used for the Fight Club soap?
Keelie Reason
I love this roundup. 🙂 My husband is a nightmare to buy for. I told him that if he didn’t make a list this year, he wasn’t getting anything. Lol
Erin
Thanks, Keelie! It’s hard for me to buy for Will too–so I just ask him to write these posts, and I go off of them! LOL
Barb
I just say I’ll buy my gifts, you buy your gifts. We each get what we want. No stress.

When I’m at a loss I always go for the food gifts. Moose munch, marshmallow cocoa, holiday gum, big chocolate bars, Pringles. Every year I peruse Home Depot and Lowes, as those stores always seem to come out with some new gadget in anticipation of stockings. Barnes and Noble often has fun little games, such as sumo thumb wrestlers. Socks, underwear and a new wallet are frequent requests. A framed photo of something we did during the year always brings a smile. I’ll also hide small, more expensive gifts in my husband’s stocking, like a watch, letting him think that he really didn’t get much until he reaches the bottom.

This is great! Shopping for men can be a difficult endeavor. You have included so many options to choose from, there’s something here for everyone! I will be including a link in one of my Christmas posts to share with my readers. Thanks for sharing!

One of the most popular stocking stuffers I given has been a Craftsman bottle opener. The bottle openers are styled after tools such as a screwdriver or a tape measure and it’s covered by the company’s product lifetime guarantee. Costs less than $20 too. : )
Erin
Nice!
