What to give a man for his birthday?

The best gift is an expression of tenderness, attentiveness and care. In order for these feelings to fully manifest themselves, it is necessary to take into account some laws. You should consider what to give a man for his birthday.

Common to all gifts are three main tips.

• Focus on your favorite birthday priorities, not your own. If a man likes dark colors, buy him something black or leather, regardless of how pink or sky blue suits him.
• Men attach great importance to personalization. Almost any item can be engraved with a laser or glued printed text. Packaging and time spent on individualizing a gift are of great importance.
• Almost every widget is available in several options, brands, models. It is important to know what they are intended for and needed by the person whom we want to congratulate.

When choosing a gift for a friend, you should pay attention to the following options:

• Watches - Orient Watch - a model that attracted classic divers, favorite James Bond watches with an automatic movement; Today, many beautiful elite models from the German Zeppelin brand are presented, differing in a variety of functions and design, and most importantly - after buying watches, personalize them; engraving on the back of the nominal watch makes the gift exclusive;
• gloves - good leather gloves in beautiful colors of well-known companies specializing in these products will leave a great impression;
• cigar travel case - a beautiful leather case for cigar lovers;
• razor - for example, Braun with a cleaning mechanism;
• travel bag for suits;
• gift Certificate to the store;
• wireless headphones - stylish, modern, leather-trimmed headphones will be a good gift;
• a fountain pen with gilding it will always be useful for a business and wealthy person;

You can start with a U-shaped pillow for long flights or buy a quality sleeping bag with good thermal insulation. As for the tent, it is good that it is two-layer, light and easy to assemble, disassemble and carry.
• Suitcase. The variety here is huge, but there are a few important things to know. Do not give it empty: put two tickets in an exotic place, a sweater, a scarf or fill it with 1000 leaflets with the inscription "I love you!". A suitcase should be lightweight, especially if used on an airplane. Again, for this reason, it makes no sense to take a suitcase that is too large to carry it half empty afterwards. For small suitcases, make sure they meet the baggage requirements of most airlines.
• Backpack should be light and tight to the back. Even better - if there is a built-in raincoat and many pockets. Consider what trips you will have to use. Will it be a monthly expedition or a day trip to the mountains. This is of great importance for determining its size.
• Walkie talkie. If the birthday person is skiing or snowboarding, wandering in the mountains, traveling in family cars or shopping at the mall, a walkie-talkie is a must, for example, a Walkie-Talkie. It is important that it has lithium-ion batteries, a wide range and works at low temperatures (especially for winter sports).
• Swiss knife. Every man loves a similar thing, especially with many additional features (including a USB flash drive, a nail clipper and separate blades for plastic, wood and metal). Leading brands are Victorinox and Wenger. Alternatively, you can buy a military knife for him (ask him for 1 ruble in exchange, since they don’t give the knife but sell it).
• Camera. Most men like to take pictures, perhaps they have preserved a hunting instinct from prehistoric times. Almost all cameras can also shoot video. For high-quality, semi-professional images, it’s nice to have a camcorder and a camera. Their species, models and varieties are innumerable.
• Smart Clock. You can hand in the latest smartphone model or smartwatch such as Pebble or Samsung Gear (note: compatible with certain Samsung phones). These are cool technical products on which you can set the dates of your birthday, anniversary and the like.
• Portable tripod If a man does not need professional cameras and video cameras of large sizes, and he prefers to use the phone for filming or likes to make clips, then a portable tripod is an excellent gift that hardly anyone would guess to make.

• Tool kit for car or home. Men love to do everything with their own hands. A set of tools will allow you to conveniently and quickly deal with various breakdowns.
• The upper trunk. Do you know how to get a wheel from a trunk full of things to the top. To solve these problems, humanity has long found a way out in the so-called upper trunks or boxes. Brands Thule, Yakima and Neumann are among the best in this area. Keep in mind that the roof racks of the car consist of two parts: the beam and the devices that you put on the beam (box, bike rack, basket). Beams (or roof rails) are different for different car models.
• USB gadget. If he works at a computer, plays on it, goes to bed with him, you can give a gadget: a USB flash drive, a USB fan for cooling, a USB burner to keep coffee warm, a USB rocket and other similar consoles. In the end, make him a mouse pad with your photo.

• Gaming steering wheel. If the person you want to wish a happy birthday likes to play computer games, put him behind the wheel. Almost every guy and even an adult man likes to turn the steering wheel and step on the pedals. And modern games are very funny.
• Quality headphones. Yes, it may sound like a boring gift if you have never used headphones for more than $ 100. The truth is that when they switch to expensive high-quality headphones, they get the feeling that they are listening to their recordings for the first time. Naturally, not only price is important, but also design, durability, maximum power, frequency range, nominal impedance, magnetic system, membrane, type of wire and plug, materials and softness of gaskets. Full-size DJ headphones with a neodymium magnet, soundproofing, but not noise-canceling, are quite suitable.
• Tickets for your favorite concert. A great gift for fans of any group. See when the ensemble arrives on tour or just arrange a trip to a nearby destination where they will have a concert.
• The new disc of his favorite artist. If you know his favorite artists, you can give them their new album. Just be careful that the birthday man does not buy it before you.
• Musical instrument. Your boyfriend is musical and always wanted to learn how to play the guitar, piano or flute - that’s the time to get the treasured instrument.

• Bag for the camera. Photographic equipment is very expensive to carry in a plastic bag. There are many durable covers, briefcases, backpacks and the like, specially designed for photo devices.

• Tripod. To obtain high-quality and stable photographs, especially in low light conditions (at night, concert halls, clubs), panoramic photographs, time-lapse photography and much more, you need to use a tripod.
