10 Practical Gifts Women Love To Buy Their Husbands

Men themselves don’t know what they want most of the time, and it is easy to be bewildered when you have to present your husbands with a birthday, anniversary, or just-like-that gift. As the wise always say, when in doubt, just go simple. So when you’re not sure what gets his clock ticking, you can fall back upon this list of popular gifts for your husband.

1. Travel grooming kit

Instead of stuffing his razors, shaving cream, and aftershave in a travel case with his shirts and later scrambling to find them, he can use a cool travel kit! Go for a leather or suede kit that will fit all his grooming paraphernalia.

2. Fancy handkerchiefs/hand towels

I am sure he has lots of handkerchiefs, some of which may keep getting lost. Handkerchiefs don’t always have to be drab and uninteresting. You could go classy and get his initials sewed on plain white ones, or, if you’re feeling adventurous, get him a set in bright colors, stripes, or checks. Even monogrammed hand towels to use in the bathroom,  make for a classy gift for your husband.

3. Socks

Colorful socks peeking out from his usual pile of browns, blacks, and greys should bring a smile to his face. He will always need socks, and if you want to add a playful touch to his collection, socks with cartoon characters or superheroes should do the trick.

4. Portable power bank
