Rad cycling print, $20. (More sports here.)
Stuffed hamburger press, because it's slightly awesomer than it is gross. $14.95.
A soap dish to inspire him every morning, $20.
Japanese bottle openers, $40 to $60, to impress beautiful women all his life.
High Falls class! No joke, this NYC class "preps students for the biggest adrenaline rush of their lives." After practicing on trampolines, students climb up a ladder to a platform and jump into an airbag below. Yikes!!! $75. (P.S. Course Horse is a rad website of NYC classes, including Microexpressions, Dancing and Sausages.)
Glow-in-the-dark frisbee, bocce ball, cornhole, etc. $9.40 to $75. 
Saturdays tee, since it's his favorite day of the week, $40.
Laguiole pocket knife from France, $49.
GoPro HD Hero, a wearable digital camera, so he can film (in high def) his point-of-view while he mountain bikes, skis, snowboards, rides motorcycles, rollerblades, skateboards or anything else that would make your mom freak out. Camera, $199; chest mount, $39.
Balloon animals kit, because he's an uncle now. $16.
And, always and forever, the Icelandic beard cap, $104. P.S. More gifts for brothers, and my favorite video of my brother...
I think I'd have to give the High Falls class along with the promise of a stiff drink afterwards; I imagine my brother would need it after all that!
ReplyDeleteWow! Really great stuff this year! And I feel like most gifts for my brother fall under "because it's slightly awesomer than it is gross"
ReplyDeleteLOL, you're right, kassie.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to these EVERY.SINGLE.DAY!
ReplyDeleteSo thoughtful and charming. Love it. Thank you!!
These beardheads on snorg tees are only $26! :)

Ah, those J.Crew slippers are a pale imitation of the original - L.L.Bean Wicked Good slippers, which are, well, wicked good. I'm wearing mine right now.
ReplyDeleteI know someone who'd just about do anything to get his hands on that hamburger :) PS - Saturday's tees are super soft and make for great sleeping shirts!

Love the J. Crew shirt for my little bro who is in his last year of school, and therefore will begin to understand the importance (and hype) of Saturdays post-graduation. Because right now, pretty much every day is Saturday for him.
ReplyDeletegreat selection!!

LOVE this list. It's actually perfect for my husband. Does that tell you how romantic we are?
ReplyDeleteCountry of origin of snorgtees beardhead? I think we all know the answer.
ReplyDeleteMy brother would LOVE the Saturdays shirt. So simple and cool. Great List!

I'm clearly not an adventurous younger brother; just reading the description of the high falls class (and looking at the picture) made my palms and feet sweat. Gah--I'm getting old.
ReplyDeleteSo happy you included those Japanese bottle openers! They were designed by my friend who is also behind this amazing table
ReplyDeletemy husband's getting a gopro for christmas and i'm SO excited to see the videos he brings home after dirt biking, cycling, rock climbing, etc. we spend hours watching gopro videos on youtube!! that thing is rad...and so are your gift guides. thanks for taking the time to put such thoughtful lists together!

ReplyDeleteThat beard cap is hilarious. Saw it in Real Simple last month. I want one for my baby... but she's a girl. Is that a mean mommy??
ReplyDeleteGetting the camera for my bro. By the way, your brother sounds rad. Does he need a short Australian girlfriend? ;)
ReplyDeleteI love the dish soap!! What a great gift. Great holiday guide Joanna.
ReplyDeleteSo, this will probably be classified as weird, but I have a teeny little internet crush on your brother :)
ReplyDeleteEvery post you write about him makes him sound like this amazingly funny, awesome, geektastic dude, and any guy who would likely want to receive these gifts has to be a lot of fun.
love the GoPro camera... My friend from college works for the company!!
ReplyDeletejoanna the gift guides are so good this year :)

ReplyDeleteI watched the video of your brother, the one you posted the link to, he seems really sweet and smart! Did he really teach Toby how to wink?! That's pretty awesome. These gift ideas are so great, especially the wearable digital camera. Actually, I've always wanted something like that!
ReplyDeleteI'm having a heart attack just looking at that burger, can you imagine eating it? that goes down in history as truly the most impressive burger I've ever seen.
ReplyDeleteI can't stop laughing about the Icelandic beard cap. Can you imagine seeing someone walking around in that?! So funny. Great assortment for the guys!

"High Falls Course"? Yup, I would give that away, too, because I sure won't be using it!
ReplyDeleteYour gift guides are absolutely FAB. I've purchased several so far, and have been pinning the rest like a fool for future reference. I feel like whenever I'm struggling for gift inspiration I can now go to that Pinterest board, look at the goodies you've suggested, and be good to go - Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteI actually really loved these ideas! Creative and fun!

This list is so great, thank you. I'm having such a tough time shopping for the men in my life and now I have some ideas. Thank you!!!
ReplyDeleteBOYCOTT AMERICAN WOMEN
ReplyDeleteWhy American men should boycott American women
Boycott American Women
I am an American man, and I have decided to boycott American women. In a nutshell, American women are the most likely to cheat on you, to divorce you, to get fat, to steal half of your money in the divorce courts, don't know how to cook or clean, don't want to have children, etc. Therefore, what intelligent man would want to get involved with American women?
American women are generally immature, selfish, extremely arrogant and self-centered, mentally unstable, irresponsible, and highly unchaste. The behavior of most American women is utterly disgusting, to say the least.
This blog is my attempt to explain why I feel American women are inferior to foreign women (non-American women), and why American men should boycott American women, and date/marry only foreign (non-American) women.
Tens of millions of American men have had their lives completely destroyed by American women through the following crimes:
1. False rape accusations (it has been proven that up to 80 percent of rape accusations are FALSE)
2. False domestic violence (DV) charges (same as above)
3. Financial destruction of men in divorce courts through alimony and support payments (women get up to 95 percent of their ex-husband's income and savings, as well as the house, car, etc)
4. Emotional destruction of men by ex-wives who have stolen their children from them and forbidden contact
5. Divorced dads who commit suicide as a result
Not one single American woman has EVER condemned their fellow American women for committing these crimes against men. Silence means consent. Therefore, American women support and enjoy destroying men's lives and causing men to commit suicide. Apparently, American women think it is okay to be a criminal, just as long as you are a woman. Therefore, is it any surprise that a huge percent of American men no longer want anything to do with American women, other than using them for easy sex and then throwing them away?
Over 50 percent of American women are single, without a boyfriend or husband; so the fact is most American men no longer want to marry American women. Let these worthless American women grow old living alone with their 10 cats.
BOYCOTT AMERICAN WOMEN!
BRAND NEW: Buy the Boycott American Women book. After reading this book, I promise you that you will never even think about dating an American woman ever again, or else I will give you your money back. That’s right, if you are not convinced by my book, I will give you a full refund!
Buy the Boycott American Women eBook now for just $4.99:

Sincerely,

I love the soap dish.
ReplyDeleteThat man is incredibly misogynistic. According to him, women are likely to get fat, can't cook or clean, don't want children and aren't even good for easy sex - and so that's all women are good for?
ReplyDeleteI think that given your readership, Joanna, you should take this comment down. Even if he is obviously just a crazy nut-job who was hurt by a women and is exacting some weird form of revenge.
I do enjoy the fact that after his crazy comment comes the sweet, innocent comment "I love the soap dish" though :)
- Marita
The soap dish is amazeballs.
ReplyDeletethis hamburguer is awfull!! sorry
ReplyDeleteJO! you've just saved my life! i was so stuck for a gift for my dad and those moccasins are PERFECT. they even ship to canada! i ordered them, size 10, so happy.
ReplyDeletethanks for your AMAZING gift ideas. xoxo.
Hi Joanna! Thank you for featuring the brass bottle openers from our shop in your gift guide! We have had many of your readers order one. I think we're almost sold out! :)
ReplyDeleteAnd you're right, a man with one of these will only impress the ladies - sophisticated beer drinkers!
Happy holidays!
I love following your blog - but I'd ratrher not see a naked woman everytime I try to read your fun posts. I"ll check back every once in awhile but is there a reason for displaying such blatant nudity on your site? I try to avoid pornography and was disappointed to see it here.
