The Best Valentine's Day Gifts for Him in 2022

As the fanfare of Valentine’s Day gets closer and closer, it’s time to start thinking about what to get HIM! You know he’s getting you something amazing, so it’s only right to return the favor. It may be hard to think of a gift for when he’s got everything he could ask for in you, so we’ve saved you the trouble. As much as this is a day to please and pamper you, take this opportunity to show him some love too with one of these great gifts. Here are 14 of the best Valentine’s Day gifts for guys.

14. Old Trapper Beef Jerky

If he’s more into food than flowers, then we’ve found the key to his heart. Old Trapper has been in the jerky business for 50 years and is still handcrafted from the most savory and highest-quality protein. The end result is a take-anywhere healthy snack that is low in calories and high in protein. You’ve known for years that the way to a man’s heart is his stomach, and Old Trapper might be the key. Our personal favorite is the teriyaki, but you know your man best.

13. A Tabletop Fire Pit

This portable tabletop fire pit can be the gift he’ll love to use with you (and the family if there’s kids involved). Quick and easy to use with no mess, or clean-up, there’s no better way to set the vibe during a nice night in. Fueled by smokeless, odorless, rubbing alcohol this fire pit can be used indoors or outdoors. The flame lasts approximately 40 – 50 minutes, making it the perfect centerpiece during conversations or the smores station during movie night.

12. The Huggaroo

If he’s a hard worker, show your love and appreciation by giving the gift of soft, luxurious, all-natural comfort. The Huggaroo delivers deep heat therapy to the neck and shoulders. Ergonomic and soft, this cordless weighted heating pad will hug his neck and shoulders while providing gentle weight for a calming effect when you’re not able to. Comes in unscented or lavender aromatherapy. It instantly relaxes neck tension, soothes trigger points in the neck and upper back, and alleviates muscle knots in the neck and shoulder blades. 

11. The 32oz Tumbler

If he’s the active type then he’ll love this on his next adventure. This tumbler is designed to tag along with him all day from a morning kick to evening sips. The TempShield™ double-wall vacuum insulation will keep his iced coffee cold and afternoon chai teas piping hot. A new tapered design provides a comfy hold and cup-holder friendly base and is topped with their new press-in lid that slides closed to keep splashes at bay. Bonus: All Hydro Flask Tumblers are dishwasher safe with a durable sweat-free exterior.

10. The B2 from Ballsy

This one might be more of a gift for you than it is for him, but who can be mad at a win-win situation! This sleek, waterproof device has interchangeable heads, one specifically designed for the pair down there and one for everywhere else. The balls trimmer head is vertical to navigate tricky trimming angles and uneven surfaces and features a squared blade design that helps avoid nicks, cuts and snags. The body trimmer head is a traditional head for full body grooming and has a ceramic blade for a close, clean shave. One trimmer, two heads and done!

9. The Oculus Quest 2

The future is here, and it’s within reach. Simply put, if you get this for your guy he’ll really love you. This all-in-one VR system is the best on the market. Every detail has been engineered to make virtual worlds adapt to his movements, letting him explore awe-inspiring games and experiences with unparalleled freedom. No PC or console required. He can even take a break from the action and grab front-row seats to live concerts, exclusive events and more.

8. The Rumpl Puffy Blanket — Dallas Cowboys Geo

The Original Puffy Blanket is a packable, portable blanket that goes everywhere, indoors and out, and now so does his team spirit. With a ripstop shell and insulation made from 100% recycled materials, this blanket is warmer and more durable than ever. Best of all, you can help him show off his team on game day, whether he’s cozy watching the Cowboys or if Hell freezes over and they actually make it to the Super Bowl again. Either way, he’ll need a good blanket, and now you know just the one.

7. CBD Recovery Balm

Hard for him to unwind? Miraflora’s CBD Recovery Balm helps ease muscle soreness and promote joint mobility. After his workout, spread this skin-nourishing full-spectrum hemp flower oil sport ointment over his aching muscles and sore joints for quick comfort. CBD has been shown to reduce inflammation, which can help muscles recover faster and alleviate soreness and joint pain. Miraflora’s recovery balm also helps promote sleep, which when your tissue rebuilds and recovers. And the added closeness of his favorite lady rubbing on him won’t hurt either. 

6. Bluetooth Shower Speaker

Be warned: This speaker will turn the shower into his studio. Before he steps in, he can connect any bluetooth-enabled device and shuffle through his favorite playlist. The iFox mini BlueTooth speaker is compact with a little extra depth allowing for more robust sound quality. It also comes with an in-built suction cup that can attach to any smooth surface. It’s a waterproof speaker that sticks to shower walls, windows, and more, meaning he could be in the bathroom working on his best 16 for a while. He can also use the carabiner hook to take it on the go as a backpack, camping, boating, or bike speaker. Though, he might get some stage fright once he’s got an audience.

5. TINCUP WHISKEY

TINCUP Rye is a favorite that you can never go wrong with and he will be sure to love. If he has everything, he can always use a classic Rye whiskey to add to the collection, and if he is out of whiskey this is a staple. As you know, TINCUP isn’t so expensive that it collects dust on the shelf and it’s also not a cheap whiskey, it’s a gentleman’s whiskey to share with friends and one you eagerly reach for. 

4. An Escape Room Adventure

If he’s the type that loves to solve a good puzzle then he’ll absolutely love this gift from Escape the Crate. Bring the fun of an escape room into his home with a different adventure delivered to his door every other month. Games can be played solo or with up to six people. Each box is a complete game, so he won't have to wait to get the whole story. Games can take 2-3 hours to complete, but are divided into chapters to allow breaks and come back to finish on his schedule. Best of all, they have an extensive back-catalog of previous boxes that aren’t in the current subscription rotation — so there’s tons to pick from.

3. Outlier Air V3 Earbuds

If he’s often on the go, but still wants to enjoy his playlist or a podcast, then these are for him. These wireless earbuds are equipped with Ambient Mode and Active Noise Reduction so he won’t be bothered when he’s trying to relax.
