There are plenty of options available now, and many don’t even look like the usual laptop bags with sleek and fun designs. Look for ones with extra padding, pouches, and compartments for your chargers and power cords to keep everything protected and organised.

These extraordinary pens come in a traditional shape and clip, the iconic Montblanc star, and the engraved nib.

Is your husband a wine connoisseur, but you have no idea which is the right wine to choose for him?

According to statistics, men tend to consume red wine more than white. However, note that red wine is pricier than white because there is more labour and cost associated with the ageing process of red wine.

So maybe a bottle of a Cabernet Sauvignon or a California Merlot will be appreciated. A nice bottle of champagne could also do if you’re celebrating something.

9. Craft Beers

It might sound like an unexciting gift, but bamboo socks are a practical gift to give to your husband.

Bamboo socks are just like regular socks until you put them on. They are much more comfortable and softer than the usual socks. They also help keep your feet cleaner because bamboo and other fabrics made from viscose have more antibacterial properties than polyester and cotton.

Bamboo socks can also keep your feet drier than cotton socks because their hollow viscose can absorb more moisture than cotton or polyester socks.

Help your husband relax by getting him a shiatsu massage chair – the closest thing to having your own masseuse right at your home.

These massage chairs are a significant investment, so before purchasing, do your research first. The brand that suits your co-worker or friend may not be the right one for your husband.

While many massage chairs are available in the market, there are pretty much just two types you will choose from. The more common type is the ones that look like giant recliners that have concentrated massagers to focus on different areas of your body, such as your back.

The other type is a zero-gravity chair that provides a head-to-toe massage and lets the user full recline. This type of chair takes up more space and also cost more money.

Before purchasing a bottle, think about how it will be consumed. Will it be mixed as a cocktail? Will it be drunk as a nightcap?

If it will be drunk as a cocktail, it’s best not to buy the expensive kind. But if drunk by itself, and you have the money, go ahead and buy the high-quality bottle and let your husband have a try of what quality rum tastes like.
