Trying to pick the perfect gift for the guy who has, well, everything, can be a challenge. We have ideas for a gift for a boyfriend that will be sure to make him smile on Christmas morning.

23 Ideas for a Gift for a Boyfriend that He Will Love
Bower and Wilkins
Whether you have someone on your list that travels often, works out every day, or just likes to listen to music throughout the day, a brand new set of headphones is a great holiday idea for a gift for a boyfriend. These noise-canceling, wireless Bluetooth headphones by Bower and Wilkins are top-of-the-line noise-canceling headphones that adapt to the environment around you. It also changes according to what you’re doing- when you lift an earbud off to listen to your environment, the music playing in your headphones automatically pauses and then resumes when you place the earbud back on. And with 30 hours of playtime, you will have plenty of power to last you through a long-haul flight or weeks of long workouts without charging it back up.
If over the head headphones aren’t quite your style, these in-ear headphones are the perfect companion to an active person’s workout or gym session. With a clear and crisp sound that adapts to the environment around you, turning up when its louder and decreasing volume in quieter spots, it will quickly become their favorite pair of headphones. The 12-hour battery life means they can run a marathon (or three) without worrying about the headphones losing a charge; the silicone and rubber material is durable and flexible. Both headphones are a perfect option for an awesome holiday gift this year.

Suunto
The problem with most smartwatches today is that they don’t look great when you’re in anything but casual or active attire. But the Suunto 5 Multisport GPS Smart Watch is a gift for a boyfriend that not only tracks his daily workouts, steps, location, and heart rate, but it also looks great. It is specially designed to look more like a regular watch than an activity tracker and it can be worn from the gym straight to the office.
It is super lightweight and waterproof up to 50m with training plans, sports modes, and up to 40 hours of battery life even when in exercise mode. GPS tracking allows you to keep track of how far you’ve gone, and it can even track your sleep, recovery, and calories when you’re sleeping. It is a great idea for a gift for a boyfriend or an active person who also wants to be stylish every step of the way.

Decathlon
If you’re looking for a gift for your boyfriend who loves sports, you can’t go wrong with a set of new golf clubs. Even if he doesn’t play golf he has probably asked for a new set of clubs “just in case” he needs them at some point. Retirement is looming, after all, and he just might spend all his free time out at the country club.
These men’s golf clubs by Decathlon are the perfect set of golf clubs for the beginner and intermediate players. Included in the set are the standard 7 clubs: 1 driver, 1 hybrid, 4 irons, and 1 mallet putter. Also included are a driver headcover and a putter headcover. The clubs are designed to give a regular range of 16 to 22 yards. The vibration dampening and ergonomic grip make them comfortable to hold and hit. They are made with lightweight titanium that makes it easy to swing and transfers your power to the ball with full force. The matte black decreases the amount of light reflection from the clubs.
This is a great set for those who love to play recreationally or those who are just learning. The lightweight irons and the lack of wood clubs is intentional – so as to provide the best set of clubs to learn and perfect one’s golfing craft.

It doesn’t take up much space, either. It’s about the size of a small tablet and can fit easily in a bag, a carry-on, or a briefcase. It can power several different devices at once- a tablet for up to 21 hours and a phone for up to 100 hours.
