Ok-it's my husband's 30-something birthday this weekend. I need some ideas.
-He normally shops at Gap and Banana and still likes Polo and Lacoste stuff. He is clean-cut, preppy but stops a bit short of being a metrosexual or anything like that.
-He loves basketball and coach's our son's team.
-He likes country music (which I hate!).
-He loves to play poker and blackjack.
-He needs new tennis shoes.
-He needs a new cologne (believe it or not, he currently wears Abercrombie cologne-the one they sell in the KIDS store!)
-I need creative gift ideas too-not just clothes ideas (but I would love to see your men's clothing favorites)!
I'm not very good at this, but I have one suggestion:
Does he have a nice poker set? My bf's father is really into poker, and for Christmas we got him a nice set with heavy clay chips (the kind they use in casinos) and cards and everything in a silver briefcase-type thing. It was a big hit; he adores it. He has his buddies over all the time to play, and whenever he goes out to friends' houses, he brings the set. We got a very good deal, but the original price was around $100, just so you get an idea of what I mean. To go along with our gift, my bf's broter got him a card dealer and his sister got a card shuffler. Depending on how into poker and blackjack he is, maybe you could get him a fold-out game table or something, as well.
I'm sure the other girls have good suggestions for you
