Need Help Shopping for a Dude?

Shopping for gifts can be rough, especially trying to buy presents for us fellas. I’m pretty sure that I’m not alone when I say that I don’t like to receive gifts and I will never tell you what I want. My general response when asked what I want is to have somebody donate that money to PETA. Looking for other ideas? I’m here to help!

Hats are something that most fellas will want. Whether it’s a sports team hat or it’s from a popular clothing brand, this is a gift that’s likely to please. When shopping for a hat, just make sure that there’s no wool. I’m hoping we all know what’s wrong with wool nowadays, but you can click here if you’re out of the loop. Here are a couple of hats that will bring out some smiles:

Johnny Cupcakes/New Era Hat Original Recipe Snapback (Black), $39.99, sold in Johnny Cupcakes stores and in its online store

American Apparel’s Unisex Recycled Cotton-Acrylic Blend Beanie, $16, sold at American Apparel stores and online

Clothes sound like bummer gifts, but deep down, we all want to look sharp. Most of us are at the age now that toys aren’t all that thrilling anymore, so we thrive on looking cool—or at least our own interpretation of what’s “cool.” I recommend checking out what Glamour Kills has online. It’s always coming up with some rad designs for every fashion taste.

Shoes are another gift that’s always appreciated. Who doesn’t want fresh kicks?

Keep Company’s The Homer Vintage Bandana, $55, sold in its online store

Macbeth’s Vegan Gatsby, $64.99, check website for local retailers.

Stocking stuffers such as gift cards and candy are always considered bland gifts. I suggest dropping some music into that stocking and maybe a wallet or some deodorant if the guy’s running low.

Hopefully these ideas are helpful! Remember: The PETA Catalog has loads of great items that would make excellent gifts for anybody. Happy holidays!

    Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.

    Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ

    I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!

    I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.
