Stocking Stuffers for Men
1. A Date Night stocking stuffer!
I have an entire post on date night stocking stuffer ideas. Grab one and have some fun together! It doesn’t have to be expensive, although it certainly can, but tickets for a date night in an envelope or small container are an expected surprise and make for a romantic gift.
2. Socks.
Have an athletic spouse? Get some new sporty socks. Have a professional? Get a fancy fun pair of dress socks. Have a guy who wears shoes? Chances are there’s a pair of socks perfect for him and his needs, and hey, there’s nothing like a pair of fresh socks!
3. Tie.
I’ve got a husband who dresses up for work and church regularly. But even if yours doesn’t have as nice of dress codes, an on-trend tie is a great idea. You never know when you need one, and the tie box is just about the perfect size.
This is one of the best gifts and practical gifts for teens to your father-in-law! And it really is the perfect size for stocking stuffer gifts.
4. Gift cards to his favorite lunch spots.
I like giving a few food gift cards with zero obligation to take me as his date. It’s 100% his food, and 100% his gift. I know he’s happy to share, but I feel more thoughtful when I grab a couple of gift cards at his favorite places near his office and add them to his stocking. He always loves this gift too. This is my favorite stocking stuffers for husband idea out there- he always loves it!
5. New Wallet or Money Clip.
How often do those babies wear out? Often! I’ve found it’s like jewelry to many women, and it’s a useful accessory they always carry. You decide whether he’s more of a leather stainless steel type. And find an excellent money clip or modern wallet to give him a sleek update.
6. A Pocket Knife/Leatherman.
These range from cheap to pricey, but they are all super handy! This little gadget is a great gift that really does fit just about anyone’s lifestyle. How often do you need a small pair of scissors or a screwdriver for a quick fix? Find a good-looking one that has features you know he’ll use and add it.

7. New Tool.
I hate to play on the stereotype, but I know my husband loves new tools and replacing older, worn-out tools with better options. So many are the perfect size, and if you pry even a little bit for what projects he’d like to do, you could easily find a new handy tool to assist.
8. A Headlamp.
My parents gave these one year, and we laughed at the thought. Lo and behold, every time we need to grab something at night, this seems to be grabbed. I’m team, this is a great stocking stuffer for men of all ages (and even an older kid would enjoy these)! They aren’t very expensive and boy are they useful!
