45 Luxury Gifts for Men Who Appreciate the Finer Things

He thinks he has it all, but we’ve got some ideas for you.

By

A man who appreciates real luxury doesn't have to be a billionaire with a first-class seat on a private spaceship. He doesn't need a brutalist villa in Sardinia, but he does need an appreciation for the finer things. At Esquire, we define a luxury man as any guy who enjoys and buys the best of the best, whatever that may be for him. He could be your crypto-trading husband, investment banking father-in-law, or lawyer dad. Or, he could be your bartender brother who happens to have nicer taste than most. He's got beautiful furniture pieces, rare whiskeys, fine wines, and a wealth of knowledge about all of it. He knows what's a good investment, what's a faux pas, and what's a must-have product. He might even already have everything—he thinks—he's ever wanted. And that's fine.

But you've got to buy him a gift. You've come here because his good taste makes him very annoying to shop for. That's where we come in. We can escort you through the upper echelons of his many fine likings. Whether he’s a home-decor perfectionist or a Michelin three-star regular, here are the 45 best luxury gifts for men.
