I don’t buy into the idea that stocking stuffers should be an afterthought. Sure, you can buy some grocery store candy, a few lottery tickets, and a pack of Chapsticks and call it a day, but it’s way more exciting when they uncover a surprise in their stocking. Keep in mind, it doesn’t have to be one or the other. If you’re in charge of filling someone’s stocking, you should expect to buy them at least five gifts (but I’d recommend more like eight to 10).

Our top picks:

For your dad who has everything? Try a brain teaser puzzle who looks like it came straight from his toolbox, or a Stanley flask he can bring to football tailgates. For your husband that swears he doesn’t want anything, I always recommend the $8 phone stand that my fiancé uses on the reg and a quirky bottle opener that’ll strike up conversation when guests are over. If you’re shopping for your hard-to-impress brother or a picky teen boy, there are trendy finds like a super slim portable charger or a viral car air freshener.

This looks straight out of his toolbox, but it’s actually a brain teaser puzzle. The challenge is figuring out how to disassemble the two small nuts, then reassemble them in reverse order.

This little machine makes grooming easier than ever. He can quickly remove hair from the nose, ear, brow, sideburn, toes, or make touch-ups along the neckline.

For, oh, I don't know, maybe five years or so, this pen has been the #1 stocking stuffer for men amongst readers. It serves nine different functions—it’s a pen, ruler, screwdriver, flashlight, and more. If yellow isn't his color, it comes in black, blue, and white as well.
