When Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, you’re probably feeling the crunch of finding a good gift for your favorite guy. The fact is, it isn’t always easy to find the perfect gift. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered with the top Valentine gifts for him.
Best Valentine Day Gifts For Your Man
1. Nimble Made Purple Pattern Dress Shirt
It’s always nice to give him something he’ll love, and be able to use for Valentine's day. This dress shirt has that perfect fit that so many other shirts lack, so he’ll feel great wearing it, especially if you two are going out somewhere nice for dinner. The other nice thing about this gift is that it’s versatile enough to wear to the office, or to wear out with the guys. With just enough subtle detailing, and a unique color you won’t see anyone else wearing, it’s a way to help him expand his style, and find a flattering fit. He’ll love the feel of it too; the textured fabric is soft and brings out the detail in the color.
Pros
- Provides a great fit and feel
- It’s practical yet thoughtful
- Unique color that has more detail in the texture
Of course, the specific design and color is important for a shirt so if you don't think this is right for the man in your life look at these classic striped shirts.
Everybody loves a good graphic t shirt, and chances are your special guy is no different. If you’ve got a Star Wars nerd in your heart, let him know, “Yoda One For Me!” It’s fun and a nice way to give him something a little bit sentimental as a special Valentine's Day gift. While it’s a great Valentine’s Day gift, it’s also something he can enjoy any time of year (and it’ll bring a smile to his face whenever he’s wearing it). The graphic is instantly recognizable, but still has a cool, toned down look to it. Bonus: it’s available in a ton of different sizes and colors.
Pros
- Classically cool graphic design
- An awesome choice for fans of Star Wars
- Fun and stylish but still sweet
If your guy loves to travel, why not get a gift that indulges his love of new places? At first glance, this might look light a regular (though attractive) world map. It’s a lot more than that though. It’s the map that lets you two track your adventures and plan more travels together. How? It’s a scratch off map! There’s something irresistible about anything that’s scratch off, so you’ll be eager to get exploring and scratch off your latest visit as soon as you get home. Once you scratch off the tan layer for a place you’ve visited, cool new colors emerge as proof of where you’ve been. It doesn't have to be this exact product - there are plenty on etsy.com
Pros
- Inspires travel and memories of trips together
- Very fun to scratch off after visiting a new place
- Ideal for guys that love to travel
4. Indoor Skydiving
Some guys are just plain tough to buy for. Whether it’s hard to find a color they like, you can’t remember the name of their favorite game, or they’re just not very into material goods. Sometimes, the best solution is to give them an experience, rather than another item.
If you want it to be memorable, then the more unique the better, right? Why not let him get some air? Indoor skydiving is a thrill, and it’s a gift he’ll never forget! Of course, he won’t have to actually jump out of a plane, since he can get the same adrenaline rush at Cloud9 Living.
Pros
- Gives him an unforgettable experience
- A unique, and completely unexpected gift
- Convenient: several locations and no plane jumping required
5. Nintendo Entertainment System Classic
You’ve probably heard all the stories about his first Nintendo when he was growing up, so surprise him with your superior listening skills! Yes, we know that old system always mysteriously got lost, so make his year with a brand new system. Don’t worry, it’s still the Classic Edition, so he’s getting all his favorite things from the original system.
Of course, it’s still a pretty big upgrade, since it comes with 30 games preloaded on the console, including Super Mario Bros., of course. No matter what his go-to game was back in the day, with 30 selections, you can bet it’s on the console.

- Classic Edition, includes 30 games loaded on the console
- Includes classic games like Super Mario Bros. and Donkey Kong
- Ideal for guys that grew up playing Nintendo
6. World’s Largest Hershey Kiss
Have a sweetheart with a sweet tooth? Then think about getting him the ultimate indulgence with a huge kiss. It’s literally the biggest Hershey Kiss available anywhere. How big is it? It weighs over a whopping two pounds! It’s almost a challenge to his chocolate addiction, and he’ll have to work to get through it. Once he does get through the thick chocolate, there’s another surprise: the inside is filled with smaller Hershey Kisses too! It’s an unmissable and likely unforgettable gift for the special day. Bonus: if you’re doing Valentine’s day on a budget, this is a really affordable gift too.

Tips to Surprise Him
Set up a Special Night
Why not take the reins this time and plan a special night? You can even use the gift you choose for him to build the night around. If you’re getting him a spiffy new shirt, consider a date night at one of your favorite restaurants to go to together. Is he more of a gamer type? You can always make an invitation for a couple’s ‘game night’ and surprise him with snacks and a new game console.
Let Him Find a Surprise
Sometimes you don’t have to say anything; you can let a well-placed surprise do the talking for you. If you really want to give him a boost, put your special gift in a spot where he’ll see it at the beginning of his day. He’ll get off to a great start, and think about it all day.
Do the Unexpected
Remember those little things you always used to do when you started dating? Bring them back for the day, and do something thoughtful. You can bring him lunch from his favorite place, or set up a special dinner to surprise him. Or, leave special notes for him to find throughout the day.
Conclusion
Valentine’s Day doesn’t need to be hard, it just needs to be thoughtful! With all these top gift ideas, go ahead and pick the one that’s a perfect fit and make his day. There’s something for every type of guy, which they’ll love.
