30 Last-Minute Gift Ideas for Butches

12/19/2015

0 Comments

 
For those of us who celebrate Christmas (or give gifts to people who do), the time for timely gift purchases is quickly disappearing.  You don't want to buy the first shiny thing you see at Target, but at the same time, you don't have days and days to ponder the perfect gift.  Never fear--I've got you covered.  Here are some excellent last-minute gift ideas for the butches on your list.  (I bet some of the non-butches on your list might find these ideas pretty cool, too.)

Also, if you're a straight, cisgendered individual who's having trouble figuring out a gift for someone less gender-conforming than yourself, please review my straight people's guide to choosing gifts for butches, will ya?

I use my UE Boom Wireless Speaker all the time for music and podcasts.  The sound is stellar, it's tiny and simple to use, and there's a mini version, too.
This leather hold-all by This is Ground will take care of your phone, iPad, glasses, and more. Order it from Huckberry to get it before Christmas.

Harry's sells top-notch razors at a totally decent price ($15 for the Truman set pictured.) This company puts drugstore razors to shame.

These cedar Neighborwoods Map Coasters from Uncommon Goods feature mapped portions of your gift recipient's favorite places.

Randall Munroe's What If? is as interesting as it is hilarious.  Gives serious answers to totally absurd hypothetical science questions.  $14.40.
Hollister boxer brief trunks are totally butch-worthy and cool ($12.95). If your butch prefers regular boxers, go for American Eagle ($14.95, 23 patterns!).
Hario 5-cup Technica.  Because why shouldn't your coffee maker be a work of art?  $75.  I also really like this pricier one with a gorgeous wood frame.
That's all I've got for now, friends.  Feel free to hit me up on Facebook if you want any last-minute gift advice, and I'll do my best to help you out.  Good luck with your last-minute holiday shopping, and safe travels wherever you're off to.  Whether you're hanging with a big flock of family, a small group of friends, your significant other, or flying solo, I hope you're getting some rest and rejuvenation.  Here's to love and health for all of us as we get ready for 2016!
