If he’s your favorite in-law, then one of these gift ideas will make you his. Whether he's marrying into your family, or you're marrying into his, the brother-in-law is a tricky gifting proposition. You didn't choose this guy. He might be cool, someone you could watch a game and sip whiskey with, or he might be a guy with incredible taste who you consult before making luxury purchases. Or he also might be a bit square, more like a coworker. Either way, I suggest you get to loving this man because he's family now. Treat him like you would your own brother or dad. Get this man a luxury gift, a cheap gift on Amazon or wherever. Just know that this man deserves a great gift, no matter how cool or uncool he is, or how little y'all talk throughout the year. Now, some people will say "Be nice, but not too nice, with in-laws." I say, respectfully, fuck that. Marriage isn't about two people, it's about two families. Love this man like your actual brother, and everyone's life will be better because of it. If you need help getting started, I've got the perfect slate of gifts. Shop the best gifts for your brother-in-law here. Every man wants, and deserves, to wear a sick-ass jacket. And 90 percent of the time, they think they can't pull it off. The only thing they need to hear is another man say, "You look really cool in that jacket." That sends confidence through the roof. This year, give him this Flint and Tinder jacket, tell him he looks cool, and change his life for the better. This sporty Timex makes a great daily driver, especially for any guy into motorsports, which seems to be every guy in America these days. If he's more of a tech guy, give him this Pininfarina Hybrid watch. It's made to look like a classic watch, but it's actually a fully functional smartwatch. It gives him health updates and notifications, but he can still wear it to a nice dinner. If he's an outdoorsy type or wishes he was, this beautiful decanter and glasses set has a true-to-life raised topographic of Everest. This thermometer is what your next brotherly bonding time over the grill out back needs most. When in doubt, the new AirPods make a solid little tech gift. I know this seems crazy, but hear me out. He's going to think it's weird, but you, a man or woman of taste, know that a bathrobe is a man's most secret loungewear hack. Put one on, and you feel like Sean Connery's James Bond. So, you get him a robe and promise him that he'll love it. In a week or two, he texts you a picture saying you've forever changed his life. He's a Robe Guy now. Fruit in winter has been a gift of royalty since Antiquity, but give a man gold-wrapped pears in 2024 and he'll think you're insane. That's the point. Keep this guy on his toes. He married into your family, so he should never be comfortable. Yeti flask, it really is as simple as that. If he's a boot guy, he already knows about the Cowboy Cut. If he's not, it's time for you to introduce a bit of flare into his life. He cares about his car way too much to use those nasty Little Trees. Ranger Station makes a designer car cologne that comes in a few scents that hit the mark. If he's of a certain age, a refurbished classic PlayStation will blow his mind. It's a great holiday gift because then you, him, and his misbehaved kids have something to bond over while dinner gets cooked. Do your homework, though. If he's more of a Nintendo man, get this instead of the PlayStation. No matter how far he's strayed from the books or movies, every guy is a Bond guy at heart, and every guy enjoys putting little things together. The best Bond car, in LEGO form, combines these two interests. Elevate his bar cart with the help of these sleek glasses. We fully endorse the top-notch quality of these glasses. A fragrance test set is always a safe bet. He might be married, but has he shaken off the habit of bad undergarments? A few pairs of fresh, cool socks or underwear delivered to him every month are your gift to both him and your sibling. Is he eager to set up the best family game night? Then get him a wooden baseball game with his favorite MLB team's logo, or a horse racing game for the thrill, or some classic penny soccer/hockey—dealer's choice. If he's a man with taste, he'll be impressed by this present. It's going to burn for hours on end and even better, it's refillable. Here, a must-have decanter set for celebratory post-game drinks. 41 Best Gifts To Win Over Your Brother-In-Law
