The short answer: the best Christmas gifts for men are things he will use every day: socks, a leather card holder or wallet, a silk tie or pocket square, cufflinks, a windproof umbrella, or a fragrance. For under £30, choose a three-pair sock gift box, a silk tie, cufflinks or a pocket square. For £30–£60, choose a leather card holder, wallet, passport holder or umbrella. For a bigger gift, a 15-pair sock collection or a pair of leather shoes. Most of our accessories come in a gift box.
